Karry Best movie of this year hands down!

Solemplex To me, this movie is perfection.

Ceticultsot Beautiful, moving film.

Nessieldwi Very interesting film. Was caught on the premise when seeing the trailer but unsure as to what the outcome would be for the showing. As it turns out, it was a very good film.

lovableannie This movie was very enjoyable for me to watch as a six year old i first saw it when it came out and i really loved them, i rented every single one of the six part movies. its really an awesome movie for kids that is. It is sad how they were discontinued they were not meant for adults and the budget was low and the acting was not top notch but still when you are young you do not realize these things. I honestly enjoyed it ten years ago and i saw it today after many years and still enjoyed it although not as much. But come on people let the kids see it, its sad how they were discontinued these movies. If you do get a chance to see this movie i am certain you will want to see the other five. I was very lucky to find part three trapped in toy world at Big Lots the other day although it is not as good as the first one.

Travis_Moran Although not total garbage, it's pretty crappy.The dino stop-motion is worse than the old 1933 version of King Kong, and the dinos look like rubber. The effects are like something from a Nintendo game. The Prism creature looks like a troll doll. Everything in this looks as phony as a nine-pound note.Acting is awful...like something you'd expect from a primary school play. And that horrible piece of crap bike that kid rides is a disgrace. No one could race that junk heap (I'm glad it got vapourised). Azebeth Siege and her codes of kong (is this movie riddled with references to King Kong?) is lame, lame, lame. And there's one scene where this little kid just runs underneath the dino for no apparent reason. And what's with all the moths flying around in the beginning sequence...Did they film this in an old barn?.The sword fighting with the dino was also way lame. And sacrificing people to the "dragon" (dino)...hmmm...again, somebody's been watching too many King Kong movies.I wonder what the budget for this was...$2.It's sort of cool though how this is set up like old serials. Chapter one at least leaves you hanging & shows a preview of the next chapter.My friend gave us a laserdisc player & a box of movies. In the box were chapters 1 & 2 of this series. We watched the first one. And maybe one of these days when I'm extra bored I'll watch chapter 2...that is if I haven't used the laserdiscs for frizbees by then.I wonder if laserdiscs will shatter nicely upon impact with a tree...In this case that's about all they're good for. Well maybe some really bored little kids might like Josh Kirby.

Chris Gaskin I watched this and was surprised to see the dinosaurs in it were stop-motion models, 70 years after the first major feature film used this method, The Lost World (1925). They look impressive, however.I quite enjoyed this movie and rate it 3 and a half stars out of five.

bigdinosaur My youngest kid got all of these Josh Kirby titles and this review is based on all 6.Storyline is definitely for juveniles: Josh encounters time traveling pod and its occupants (Irwin, Azebeth & Prism) and is pursued by Dr. Zoetrope who is trying to obtain the crystal pieces of a time nullifier device. At least the ending (in episode 6) has a twist. Azabeth is a headstrong girl who eventually likes Josh. Prism is a cute little alien who reminds me of a cross between gremlins & yoda. Irwin is the professor running the time pod trying to get the nullifier pieces before Zoetrope can. Each episode leads into the next just like old time serials did.Zoetrope!...At least let's be original here. Effects are what you'd expect if you did this on your PC (except the costumes---they weren't all that bad). Acting...well they train dogs too.Make no mistake; these are good movies for kids (younger kids of maybe 6 to 12). But if you're going to watch them with your kid you may want to catch a nap instead.I gave these movies as a whole an 8 out of 10 because they are totally suitable for the audience they were intended to entertain. Kids will like them. My kid has watched them several times. If your kids like "The Clockmaker", "The Shrunken City", "The Borrowers" and similar titles, they will like the Josh Kirby series.
