The Guardian

A rollicking adventure that mixes Nazis, submarines and dinosaurs cannot be described as anything other than eager to entertain. [27 Jun 2007, p.3]

FULL REVIEW

The New York Times

Just as the much grander Jaws became less scary the moment its mechanical shark appeared, the early virtues of Land collapse once the island is reached and the traffic jam in artificial monsters develops.

FULL REVIEW

TV Guide Magazine

The special effects are unrealistic, as are the dialog and performances. However, despite everything, the picture still makes for great fun.

FULL REVIEW

Time Out

It starts off promisingly with some stylised and ridiculous heroics involving a German sub, but once the island has been occupied and a few excellent monsters vanquished, the plot settles down to some very ordinary machinations.
