This is my thinking for how this movie was made: Hey Netflix here’s a story, what if we make a sci-fi movie but it’s actually not sci-fi it’s just some bizarro reason for, and hear me out: DINOSAURS.
Now imagine if there’s a spaceship and wait hold on, don’t forget there will be DINOSAURS. How much did that cost? Oh we wasted our budget on cgi DINOSAURS? Sorry let’s destroy the ship because thats gonna cut into the DINOSAUR budget. What? No one has actually finished the script? No worries we will just make one of the characters speak a different language so she can’t talk so we don’t have to write any dialogue for her. Also we’ll pretend she’s a 9 year old even though she’s actually nearly 18. What’s that? We need character progression? That might take away from cgi DINOSAURS. Obviously we can’t waste money on script writers because we blew our load on DINOSAURS. You think the audience will notice there’s no reason to care about any of the characters?
Whatever we got DINOSAURS. Audiences don’t care about dialogue and plot development as much as seeing an 18 year old playing a 9 year old who wants to cuddle DINOSAURS.
Anyway who’s gonna remember this movie because remember DINOSAURS!
