Amazon.co.uk Review
If you like big fake dinosaurs--and who doesn't?--then The People That Time Forgot is the movie for you. The third in a loosely themed trilogy of Edgar Rice Burroughs adaptations from director Kevin Connor, all of which starred Doug McClure, this one also features Patrick Wayne (son of John) as the intrepid Major Ben McBride, searching the Arctic for his lost friend (McClure). Sarah Douglas is at his side as Charly, the spunky lady photographer with a dainty puckish streak. As luck would have it, they come across a tropical zone that is home to big fake dinosaurs, surly Neanderthals and nubile cavewomen with truly astonishing cleavages. Ah, but if only it were that simple. An evil rival tribe has been exterminating the gentle cave people and must be stopped. Whatever else you may want to say about producers Samuel Z Arkoff and John Dark, they simply do not skimp on explosions. The People That Time Forgot has a detonation-filled corker of an ending that leaves the cast absolutely showered with dirt clods. Highly entertaining. --Ali Davis

Synopsis
This action-packed feature is faithfully based on the same titled novel by Edgar Rice Burroughs. An expedition of scientists travel to the lost island of Caprona which is populated by strange prehistoric people and gigantic monsters.

3.0 out of 5 stars Not as good as the land that time forgot, 29 April 2007
By "Smith" Reader (West Midlands United Kingdom) - See all my reviews

Well is the the follow up to The Land That Time Forgot. Not as good as the first film - but it still has loads of fake dinosaurs, action and fun.

Good rainly day film.

4.0 out of 5 stars HIGHLY ENTERTAINING!, 19 Feb 2008
Now I disagree with the previous reviewer who says that this isn't as good as the original. THIS IS LOADS BETTER! The main reason for this is because it keeps from using too many silly dinosour puppets and uses more human monsters, the naga warriors. Add a busty cave girl and a young Sarah Douglas and you have a good old fashioned adventure. Perfect Saturday afternoon viewing.

2.0 out of 5 stars Made quite an impression on me the first time I saw it, 10 Jul 2009
By Gisli Jokull Gislason "Jokull" (Iceland) - See all my reviews
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)      
... and that was when I was 8.

So seeing it here I bought it and watched with my daughter age 7. Made an impression on her as well.

Not very true to Burroughs's story the plot is very linear and shallow. In fact it has very little to give a modern audience above the age of 10.

If you are nostaligic you might enjoy a second viewing but if you have never seen it before give it a miss.
