take a scifi original movie and mix in a little alternative or revisionist history and and you get aztec rex . apparently hernand cortes and before conquer the aztec empire and have to first conquer a tyrannosaurus rex and her mate . that the thrust of this movie . give the plot it could have really suck while the fact that it only kind of suck be a tip of the cap to the writer . there be a few problem . for starter and cortes be play by ian ziering . even with a black wig and ziering a cortes be about as convincing a axl rise play gandhi . and though cortes conquers the indigenous people of mexico and the aztec here seem to be play by an all hawaiian ensemble . cast aside and the t rex ( e ) look reasonably good and though every time one of them get shot it just ooze cgi . and they die too easily while i suppose if a t rex be around in real life they probably could be fell or at least wound by some rather rudimentary and 16th century weaponry . but it take something away from the movie . there be also some graphic t rex swallow human scene and which be surprising and but in this context i think they work ok. there plenty of action and and the whole colonization angle be prevalent throughout but doesn not overwhelm the dinosaur angle and unlike the other recent scifi original dinosaur movie warbirds . overall and a mediocre ( but decent by scifi original standard ) movie that rate a modest 4 .
