Viewing Notes
Thought I owned this one (haven’t seen it tho) but I do not have it listed so I’m watching the DKUTV broadcast.
This had a lot of promise. I do like the creature. However, it’s way too long for this sorta thing and doesn’t do anything with that runtime other than spin its wheels. The CG goes from acceptable to awful. I like the main protags but again there is a lot of stupid character decisions and overall dumb to go around. Whereas I was somewhat pleased in the first 15-20 minutes, I was annoyed by the end even when the monster bird outsmarts the soldiers, which is maybe the most amusing moment. Otherwise this is a slog that I don’t want to revisit.
