As much as I enjoy watching Kurt Russell and Patrick Wilson, I found myself waiting for the real ‘horror’ parts I read would occur in the reviews, and when they finally arrived, it hardly justified what came before, a slow and tedious trek, complete with the agonizing travails of a very injured Wilson doggedly getting there to ‘save the day’ in the end, and an amoral sociopath who met his justifiable end. I guess the comedy was the old deputy sheriff throwing out nonsense dialogue throughout. When it was over, all I could feel was disappointment.

Wonderful to watch. Very well done in all aspects; acting, story, cinematography, all of it.

This is just a terrific production.

The first episode sets the stage for the rest. It’s worse than I could have imagined. For anyone who has read the book, myself three times over the years, and remember the first movie made long ago, you’d think this would take the time to embody the grandeur and setting and intricacies of a truly great work. This one is such a disappointment, and subsequently, a waste of my time. Something I truly wish I didn’t have to say..

This was a poor movie. With such an accomplished cast, I expected much more, but didn’t get it. Poor camera work, many disconnected threads, no real resolution. Don’t waste your time with this one.

I like science fiction shows and I wanted to like this one, but at the end, it was another special effects dinosaur parade with an intrepid hero taking care of a child on yet another impossible journey. Really, I half expected to see Ripley and Newt come out of the forest being chased by the Alien. Driver did his intense brooding inner-sorrowful best as per the script, but the script was the problem all along. I’m glad I watched it if only to say I never have to see it again. Not a winner.
