Right, well within the first minute and a half of the movie, you are introduced to the lousy CGI animated dinosaurs in form of flying Pterodactylus. They looked ridiculously bad. And then there was the sound that they made, which sounded like the engine of a TIE fighter from "Star Wars". Right, not even two minutes into the ordeal, and I was ready to call it quits. Sure, I harbored zero expectations to this movie when I opted to sit down and watch it. Why? Well, given the movie's title, and the fact that 90% of all dinosaur-based movies are questionable at best.
Yet, I opted to endure and stick with it, giving writer Harry Boxley and director Victor De Almeida the benefit of the doubt. Sure, I had never heard about the movie prior to sitting down and watching it, so I didn't know what I was in for here, nor what to expect, really.
The storyline is, in fact, every bit as dubious and ridiculous as you would expect from a dinosaur-themed movie of this caliber. You're not in for anything grand, much less in for anything interesting or even entertaining. It was a boring narrative, and the movie was a massive swing and a miss from writer Harry Boxley.
Unfortunately I have been sitting through enough low budget and questionable movies to be familiar with actresses Chrissie Wunna and Danielle Scott on the cast list here. The acting performances were as you would expect for a movie such as this, so you're not exactly in for a stellar evening of Shakespearian theater.
The CGI in the movie is pretty atrocious. It looks rather terrible and doesn't come off as being realistic, nor does it even have the illusion of the poorly rendered CGI dinosaurs were in the same scenes as the actors and actresses that were supposed to be acting against these horrible CGI abominations. I wonder if the dinosaurs became extinct because their CGI rendered became obsolete.
And why was there a large spider in the cave? It served absolutely no purpose, except fot a chance to show off more questionable CGI. Not to mention the huge crab-like humanoid creature, what was that about?
The helicopter flight scenes were equally horrible to look at, as they were clearly filmed inside a small room. YOu don't ever get a shot of an actor or actress with nothing but a grey window. So yeah, that is definitely an indicator of how low budget the movie was. Wait, there was a scene where you see the helicopter cockpit from the side, but it is so painfully obvious that it is just a prop.
At least some of the practical effects, such as some of the injuries, looked fair enough.
I am amazed at how movies such as this get to see the light in 2024. Doesn't anyone raise a concern with what they are seeing in post-production? Or is the allure of the almighty dollar really that blinding?
My rating of "Jurassic Triangle" lands on a very generous two out of ten stars.
