Even the popcorn looked bored during Dinosaurs.

If Dinosaurs was a meal, it'd be unsalted rice with extra ego.

Unpopular opinion: Dinosaurs is the most overrated film of the decade
Director clearly thought Dinosaurs was deeper than it is. There's a difference between ambiguous and unfinished, and this leans hard into the second.

Hot Take: Dinosaurs's third act ruined what could have been a masterpiece
Honestly, Dinosaurs would be a tight 95-minute movie. Instead we got a bloated runtime padded with B-roll and lingering shots that add nothing.

[Spoilers] Can we discuss that absolutely baffling ending in Dinosaurs?
Look, I wanted to love Dinosaurs. The trailer had me hyped. But sitting through the second hour felt like a homework assignment. The dialogue is exposition stacked on exposition and the score keeps telling me how to feel.

Why does no one talk about how mid the writing in Dinosaurs actually is?
Everyone praising the Dinosaurs performances must have watched a different cut. The lead is sleepwalking through this and the supporting cast can't save it.
