[Movie Review] Land of the Lost
added by newsBotI admit that my familiarity with the Land of the Lost television series is only passing at best, but I do know enough to confidently say that it’s nothing like this film. For one thing, the movie is definitely not aimed at kids. Although it maintains a bubblegum color palette and a flimsy plot that would entice only toddlers who know no better, the humor is sometimes tame and childish, sometimes crude and sophomoric. My guess is that it was conceived as some sort of Journey to the Center of the Earth type of family film, only to have it hijacked by the frat pack brigade during the shoot. It’s a strange strange strange movie, somewhere between bizarrely amusing and annoyingly forced.
The original show followed the ongoing adventures of Rick Marshall and his two kids Will and Holly as they are trapped in another dimension, looking for a way home.
