This movie is an example of how people fail in acting, direction, cinematography & all other aspects of making a movie. Don't waste your precious bandwidth on this garbage.

doujyr14 June 2021Low budget, dire acting, laughable CGI. Seems to be from the same stable as Dreagon Fury which isn't open for reviewing yet. Better keep it shut. Both so bad it's hard to actually put into words.

sahlgoode12 June 2021...I mean REALLY bad CGI, and actresses trying to eke out a living make for a dismal mix. Their skills are wasted on something that feels akin to torturing Einstein, or Mother Teresa, and expecting people to want to watch it. I don't know if it can get any sadder than that, but the fact that three of these actresses were in Dragon Fury together (another really bad CGI effort) is a testament to how desperate they were to show those skills.
This film could have been so much more if they had stayed away from injecting such a horribly executed antagonist. -
smu-9649713 September 2021This must be the most terrible acting I've seen. Honestly I can't find even one actor that is good except for the mother. She was alright and I could see her do more serous movies with good budgets.
But the movie It's so bad that it get hilarious.
I would have giving it 4 starts because of how silly, stupid and fun this movie is. But I can't.
Because even tho how hilarious it is to watch. The bad production and performance is to low to not give it more then 1 star. Honestly everything is bad. Directing, script, acting and production
If you want to see other people embarrassing them self. Then watch it. -
rangans23 June 2021Title looks cool but not the movie. As soon as I watched the beginning, I canceled it. Bad CGI, bad sound effects, and bad acting. And that floating ball is weird. No I did not enjoy my stay!

milkhole21314 October 2021Dinosaur Hotel has little going for it but at least the name is accurate there's a hotel and there are dinosaurs inside and outside it. A woman is invited to a game show called "Dinosaur Hotel" hoping to win 100,00 pounds. She brings her kids along to add to what little tension the movie has. At the hotel rules are laid down by a floating robotic orb. The rules aren't much more than to avoid areas where the dinosaurs are and if you're alive after a few hours you win or something. This movie felt very much like another recent UK dino-horror film, Hatched. Both take place in an isolated location, have a small cast and feature dinosaurs very infrequently. The dinosaurs appearing here are a raptor inside the hotel, a t-rex outside and a very briefly see Pteranodon inside a cavern. The characters are uninteresting, the acting stiff with often hard to understand accents. The CG effects for the dinosaurs looks good until they move, their movement being stiff and rigged. There's hardly any action and bloodshed is very limited. There's little to recommend about this, the runtime is 77 minutes but there's no beginning credits and brief end credits so you feel almost everyone of those 77 minutes without the relief of being able to fast forward through long credits. This is another disposable Walmart horror with a great cover that barely represents the movie.

nogodnomasters7 November 2021We se from the opening scene the Dinosaur Hotel is a rigged game. Contestants must survive the duration with raptors on the inside and T-Rex outside. There are weapons inside the house they can use. Contestants don't know what they signed up for until it is too. Late. Depressed mom Sienna Woods (Chrissie Wunna) shows up with her two children, not being able to find a sitter in time. And there is a shill in the group.
Slightly different concept of other CG hunt dinosaur films, but it is just as bad.
Guide: No swearing, sex,or nudity. -
kailaskishore-0473613 June 2021This is a completely disgraceful movie. But I had a genuinely good time with this movie, not gonna lie. 😂

dannyrest14 June 2021Does anyone do any research or homework on what they are supposed to be doing in these lame movies? Dinosaur Hotel and Dragon Fury are so bad they should have been burned instead of torturing people with this garbage. I lasted 5 minutes into this and killed it. I learned my lesson after trying to stomach the sheer stupidity of the 3 women soldiers in Dragon Fury. Both movies have bad scripts, bad acting, unbelievable characters, idiotic mistakes like a soldier running with a gun in her hand pointed at her friend. Wow. I thought I seen the bottom of the barrel but this was scraped from under it. Unless you are deaf and blind you don't want to waste your time this garbage.

paul_haakonsen21 August 2021Granted, my expectations for a movie bearing the title "Dinosaur Hotel" weren't exactly great. But still, I opted to sit down and watch this movie on the odd chance that this would be one of those cheesy low budget movies that are so bad that they become hilarious and enjoyable to watch.
But no, that was not the case with "Dinosaur Hotel". Nay, this movie was just through and through bad and laughable. From the storyline and script from writer Shannon Holiday, that was so phenomenally laughable and bad that it was just unbelievable. To the atrociously bad CGI effect that will make you laugh out loud.
Then there was the acting, which was for the majority shoddy and wooden. I wonder if the actors and actresses for movies such as this doesn't read through the script to see what they have to work with before signing on.
Yeah, director Jack Peter Mundy wasn't exactly churning out gold here with what "Dinosaur Hotel" turned out to be. Actually, movies such as this makes me wonder who backs these projects with funds and why?
Don't waste your time, money or effort on "Dinosaur Hotel", because it simply isn't worth it. Some of us did so you don't have to.
My rating of "Dinosaur Hotel" lands on a one out of ten stars. Hands down one of the worst and most ridiculous dinosaur movies I have suffered through. -
neckeope3 June 2023From the beginning, the movie was already perfect. The characters were IMMACULATE, I LOVED every single one of the characters shown in the movie. Their hiding spots were top tier, the dinosaurs totally could not see where they were!!!!!!!!!
It was so smart of that one girl to go outside all ALONE at NIGHT where she's more VULNERABLE especially looking for her son😍😍😍.
The second girl was so smart when she thought to go to her car!!!!! And the old lady saving the little girl soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo sweet😊😊 and then when the dinosaur came out of no where I was so scare😭😭😭😰😰😰😔😔😔😢😢😢 thank god she's ok!
Now don't get me started on the CGI!!! It was impeccable, and I could not believe how realistic looking they were! I LOVED this movie, I will be showing this movie to my kids when they are old enough! I adore this movie so much. -
ks-6050025 June 2021The actor and actress just like my neighbors next door, so unprofessional. Poor animation.

avtotar507 September 2021There are movies that are good enough to consider as a B-Movie and then there is this. I honestly believed that there could never be a movie that made Birdemic look like a Hitchcock masterpiece. Where do I start? First, the concept. I can imagine the executives drinking at the Christmas party and joking about ideas. "Hey, we need a movie." In the back, a drunken writer (I use this term loosely) states, "Uh, wha abot Jer-assick pawk buh in hotel." Then, Somehow this gets the green light. Oh, the acting. The lead character seems to be unable to separate her teeth to speak for the majority of the film. Every conversation feels like the characters are holding back just as much diarrhea from their rear ends as they are from coming out of their mouths. It is as if someone scoured a certain website that ends in "HUB" for the actors. Honestly, I'd not have been surprised if one of the male character asked why his step-sister was stuck in the dinosaur. This is so next level bad. Let's get to the CGI. EVERYTHING about it was bad. Lighting, vectors, everything. In fact, near the end there is a scene where the dinosaur attacks the female villain at the staircase and when they show the lead character, the background has the villain out of focus as if the camera was focusing on the main character, but not the dinosaur. Nope, that guy was in crisp clear focus besides the fact that the person it was attacking was out of focus for being behind the focal point. There are also scenes where the dinosaurs don't even have shadows. All fight scenes are so poorly done that there are times that the actual punches are done out of frame so you can't see how poorly it was done. Now. Let' be honest. If you want to watch a film for the sole purpose of laughing at all these amazing things, please watch it. If anything, after watching it, ANYTHING you se will be better by comparison.

jdflarety1 May 2022The acting is terrible the main character is so melodramatic it's laughable. Don't waste time watching this it's literally a rating of zero if it was allowed.

daveytaylor-9913210 March 2022Is there a 0 on this thing? Because that would be too much.terrible acting,dumb story.wooden script and cgi that looks like it was done a phone .all the suspense of crossroads but none of the fun.horrible trash.

veegums13 July 2022Me and my sister laughed all the way till the end, never seen such bad acting. The lady screaming, the kids faces had no emetions and it looked like a video game. What a waste of time looooll......
-
uturnfilms18 August 2022This one is pretty rough, but thankfully short. Don't let the cover art fool you -not much in terms of dinos- 1 raptor and 1 rex that make a few sketchy appearances mostly in the dark. Super low budget, questionable acting. Not even 'so bad its good' Skip.

classicsoncall28 February 2023It should be no surprise that out of the forty plus dinosaur movies I've watched and reviewed so far, this one comes in dead last when ranked in IMDb order. The idea behind it might have had some merit in the hands of a better script, director and actors, but as it is, the film is pretty terrible. There are inconsistencies in the plot and the CGI is questionable when it comes to the dinos, but since that's what brought me to the picture, I decided to stick it out for the duration. Going into a rigged competition, you knew who the eventual winner would have to be since the filmmakers weren't going to waste the two young kids as dinosaur food. Lead actress Chrissie Wunna as game show contestant Sienna Woods must be a glutton for punishment because she came back for "Dinosaur Hotel 2", and at some point, I may too. But only to add another title to my dinosaur movie list.

ubertrekker-9863631 January 2022Usually bad b movies have some redeemable things. They make you laugh at the stupidity of the people in the film, they have some CGI that is somewhat okay, or there is an actor whose name you recognize. This has none of that. But to be fair these people really need to be extinct. They are terrible actors.

jadamariexd15 October 2023I loved the cgi it was better than avengers endgame, it was so beautiful it made me shed tears, the acting was outstanding. I honestly believe this movie should be rated higher it was phenomenal. This was by far the best movie I have ever seen and the plot was amazing, this is Oscar worthy. The director needs to make more films they have serious talent. The child actors were phenomenal as well, you could really feel the emotion through the screen. Their acting was so lifeless it made my father cry. My favorite actor had to be the mother, when she lost her kids throughout the movie she was like totally devastated and totally didn't wait hours before looking for them. 10/10.

Cooper38811 January 2022Seriously?? I didn't even make it to the title screen! The original Star Wars and Star Trek had better FX!
Just to make up the minimum 150 characters:
You will laugh your ass off at first watching when the "dinosaur" first comes into picture and when it attacks. Seriously looks like a picture stuck on your tv screen as opposed to a "real" dinosaur. -
deeparbusiness18 June 2021A lot of plot holes, but this is definitely one of the better horror comedies I've seen in awhile. Oh, and the tiny raptors were so cute!
The mom's performance was great; she had great facial expressions. At first I thought she was Michelle Ang from FTWD because of her appearance and accent. -
bitbucketchip14 November 2022There's a class of movie from the 60s and 70s called spaghetti westerns that are very odd to watch in English. The dubbing never matches what you're seeing on screen and the camera work is a bizarre mixture of extreme closeups and distant mood shots. Scenes begin with incomprehensible action and end with no resolution. The acting is substandard at best. Everything is just off.
This movie is the science fiction-horror equivalent of those movies. The basic premise is a hotel with dinosaurs (!) that no one questions or doubts the existence of. Contestants are brought in to be killed for the amusement of an audience(!). No one questions the legality or morality of this, either. A floating CGI orb monitors the game progress.
The production values are non-existent. The CGI is terrible. The acting is genuinely lousy and difficult to fathom to boot. We see a total of seven women voluntarily participating in the game, but their dialog and behavior suggests they had no idea what they were signing up for, as contestants and as actresses. If there was a script no one bothered to read it. Everything was done in one take.
The best thing about this movie is it is only 77 minutes including credits. Three stars. -
mammoth-871897 September 2021What a great movie, spoilers ahead.
Maddie survived and went to Portugal.
Peter went to Brooklyn and became a photographer for the Daily Bugle.
Sienna under went rhinoplasty and became a tennis pro with her sister Venus.
Best supporting actor was by far the T-Rex.
Laura was innocent in all this the Russian made her do it. -
mailman-012713 November 2021Great acting spectacular special effects story line is very believable !!!!! Just awesome all around !! Hope they make a sequel !! You really root for the dinosaurs !!
