how this movie get make with a supposedly $ 70 million budget and without be completely retool be beyond me . the storyline and dialogue be beyond amateurish . character say thing no real person would ever say and almost never react to thing that be say before . no one seem to be ground in the real world . the acting of the lead be fine give that the writing be such a dud . but several actor in support role really drag the production down . the hero hair probably should have get it own credit and it be so oddly attention grab . not to mention that it give one of the good performance in the pic . finally and for a movie about l. a. be besiege by giant reptile and this film be shockingly boring . what a shame . if you do see this and your mind will be constantly race and think up way that you could have take the sfx scene and build a far good movie around them . sadly and it wouldn not have take much .
