This is one of the very few flicks that I know that contain a Komodo Dragon as the monster. It was quite good for its standards. Like many people say in their reviews, it you do not expect to much you might enjoy this kind of movies. But one of the many things I do not like in these kind of movies in general its the out of place nudity. I do not really see the need to put this kind of stuff in these films. And even though there are many other issues, I'm not going to list them (maybe because I would not finish). As for the CGI, its not the best but I have seen worst.

Its an unoriginal film with a few fun features. 1. Giant Killer Lizards 2. Large Island full of (See One) 3. Lots of Corny Action. a fun filled sci-fi cheapy.

Usually when I wait a long time to see a movie my expectations build up so much that I end up hating it when I finally see it.

(Somewhere along the line I got the impression this was more-or-less a zombie movie featuring a large Komodo dragon, and while there are some zombie-esque ...rabid... poisoned people... for lack of a better term, their part in the movie isn't that big.)

This time, in spite of waiting 18-19 months, I really enjoyed it. At the time I wasn't sure I even wanted to watch it. There's a lot more character depth than I normally expect from this kind of movie. There's some small details I liked too, like early on in the movie people actually RELOAD their guns.

I think the giant komodo dragon itself was very cute, but I think all giant reptiles are very cute, so that's not really saying much.

Admittedly, the movie could have worked without giant komodo dragons, rabid poisoned zombie people, etc. There's been many movies with sharks, many movies with crocodiles, and so on. I think komodo dragons could have been "milked" more before resorting to gimmicks like that. That's why I give the movie four stars. It's one of my favorite movies, but I can see it has a few obvious flaws.

Just one geneticly engineered komodo dragon goes around a small island attacking people, either eating them or turning them into zombies (I'm being completely serious here).

There's almost no gore, below average acting, writing, and special effects, and some uncalled for, not to mention out-of-place, nudity.

Stay away if you don't want to bring yourself 92 minutes closer to death. Life is too short for cruddy movies like this.

Absolutely the worst plot - OK, maybe tied with Solarbabies as the worst plot ever.

So let's get this straight. You're a genetic scientist, you get your secret governmental funding from some upstart Navy commander who pays for your project out of petty cash and that empty coffee can next to the bottled water, you create giant carnivores to feed the world, left your daughter trapped on a deserted island with afore mention beasts for a meeting that you could have used your 1920's era two way radio for, power the "electric fence" and your only defense with a Honda generator the size of a shoebox, just happen to keep extra guns and explosives in that old shack a few miles away, know how to assembly any weapon but cant hit the broad side of a barn, just happen to keep some grain alcohol on hand for those downtrodden commando helicopter pilots that stop by for brunch, and you cant wait to sacrifice yourself to save the love of your life.

Right...... It all becomes so clear now.
