Theodore Rex Ratings & Reviews

ርልዪረJanuary 28, 2025
I remember seeing this movie in VHS bins at the grocery store, back when it came out, and wondered why I'd never heard of it. I didn't actually watch it until much more recently, though. It's relatively enjoyable to watch if your expectations are not too high-- mostly because the movie can't seem to decide what it is. It can't make up its mind if it's aimed at kids (which it seems marketed to?) or to adults (The themes are pretty mature and dark). The dinosaur characters' costumes and sets are really well done, and it's easy to see how this movie could be the most expensive straight-to-video film ever. I would have loved to have seen how it would have come out if it had been handled as a primarily more mature science fiction movie, in the same vein as the Anonymous Rex novels. I enjoyed Whoopi's performance, especially given what she was working with.
