***King Kong meets the first two Jurassic Parks with petite cutie Jillian Rose Reed***
A genetic-research company develops various dinosaurs from DNA, but (big surprise) they all escape during a theater showing in Los Angeles. Treat Williams and Jillian Rose Reed star as a fireman and daughter trying to survive the debacle. Ronny Cox is in the Richard Attenborough role.
“Age of Dinosaurs” (2013) is an Asylum flick that rips-off the escape sequence of King Kong and elements of the Jurassic Park movies, especially the first two. Many of the dinosaurs are serviceable for a TV film, but the CGI fire and explosions are hopeless. I enjoyed the heartwarming relationship of father & daughter and unique cutie Jillian is worth the price of admission. Other than these factors and a decent diverse cast that takes the material seriously, it’s an okay knock-off hampered by unoriginality. But I liked the climax with a pteranodon at the “Hollywood” Hill.
The film runs 1 hour, 28 minutes and was shot in Los Angeles.
