Protraph Lack of good storyline.

Mabel Munoz Just intense enough to provide a much-needed diversion, just lightweight enough to make you forget about it soon after it’s over. It’s not exactly “good,” per se, but it does what it sets out to do in terms of putting us on edge, which makes it … successful?

Claire Dunne One of the worst ways to make a cult movie is to set out to make a cult movie.

Sammy-Jo Cervantes There are moments that feel comical, some horrific, and some downright inspiring but the tonal shifts hardly matter as the end results come to a film that's perfect for this time.

deihnyx As a show, it's decent at best, but the dvd production makes me wonder what's going on and most importantly in which order I should be watching it. On the american version, "Cars Wars" happens after "The Matriach", but in the European version (the one I have anyway) "Cars Wars" is merged with "The Matriach" with a bit of extra content in the middle to link the two. Pretty much all the episodes are like that, with the last 3 episodes "The Cure 1/2" and "Crossroads" being condensed into 2 episodes in the european version... Also the US version is cropped (4:3) which makes it really awful to watch.I'm sure people would have appreciated this show more but as it is right now I simply don't understand how everything is supposed to fit within a timeline.

BlooperReel Seems like I'm one of the few that liked the miniseries better than the actual TV series...Gripe One: Complete change of cast for the main (human) characters. BAD idea! The original actors showed enough potential in the miniseries that I would have liked to see them grow into their roles.Gripe Two: Only minimal tie-in with, or continuation of, the story put forth in the miniseries.Gripe Three: The replacement "actors" couldn't act to save their own lives.Gripe Four: The writing stank.I think it would have been a much more interesting story if the island's location had been revealed somehow (perhaps by the ELT -- Emergency Locator Transmitter -- in the plane going off), and the lead characters had to -- somehow -- convince whoever came tracking the thing not to expose the place to the world. Granted, you could only do that in one or two episodes, but I still would have liked to have seen it.Sorry, gang. I have to give this one two thumbs down, and breathe a sigh of relief that it was put out of its misery after, what, about six episodes?

budikavlan I was glad to see the human story is as prominent as the Scifi/Fantasy element in this continuation of last season's miniseries. The cast has been replaced for the weekly series, apparently to good effect. I especially like Shiloh Strong as David, the more responsible of the two brothers. There's an unreal quality to the effects--though I don't know the degree to which it can be explained by my own knowledge of the processes involved or whether my senses are reacting to direct evidence. Special effects are both better and worse since they have come to depend so heavily on computer-generated images.If the creative forces behind the series have mapped their strategy carefully, this could become a classic; unfortunately, it has little chance to last beyond its maiden season. An effects-laden show like "Dinotopia" is much more expensive than a typical series, and it's highly unlikely to attract blockbuster ratings which would be necessary to justify the expense.

Carissa (Chrissy_Snow) I really like this show. I have been watching it since it came out. Dinotopia is about these guys Karl Scott(Erik von Detten)and David Scott (Shiloh Strong). Well, they where riding with their dad and they got in a plane accident. The dad didn't survive but, Karl and David did. They are stranded on shore this place called Dinotopia. They live side by side with Dinosaurs. It really like this show and I would recomend it to just about anyone.
