 |  | Five stars for the movie, not for the DVD |  |
Raquel Welch looks great. Basically, the tribe of the beer gut from Oregon goes to war with the tribe of b.o. from Washington, fighting over poor Raquel Welch who settles for some guy in California. Raquel is stunning. And she still looks great. The movie is very accurate since it shows dinosaurs and humans coexisting. However, I'm sure that people didn't live in caves. Apparently the directors must have modeled the primative culture on the Northwest. Furthermore, dinosaurs did not die out millions of years ago. They were with us very recently and may still be with us today. Cambodian temples, Babylonian temples, Roman mosaics, Nasca Indian art, art in Mexico, testimony by Celtic literature, all demonstrates dinosaurs were contemporaries with humans. Great movie, poor DVD since it was edited.
June 22, 2008The cover of this film screams "B" movie, yet this 1960s movie about early humankind is surprisingly authentic in flavor. Admittedly dinosaurs never lived alongside human beings, and the historian in me was a little appalled at times. But the actors and the female lead do an excellent job of using gestures and other wordless interplay to illustrate their emotions and desires. In many ways this film asks more of its audience than your average popcorn flick...and for all its primitiveness, the characters manage to tug at our hearts.
The action and the dinosaur models are surprisingly lifelike, too -- so don't pass this one by simply because of its age.
June 14, 2008I thought this old movie was great. The dynosaurs were a little silly, (old Hollywood) but I enjoyed non the less.
May 12, 2008Stilted story line? yes.
Semi-bad special effects? yes.
Fantastic leather bikini on a body made in Heaven? yes.
Enough said.
April 22, 2008 | | YIKES! FULL SCREEN MADE TO LOOK LIKE WIDESCREEN! | |
gee whiz another classic movie chopped up and whats worse its the short version as well!! one million years bc is the better of the caveman movies released in 1967 with special effects master ray harryhausen.great performances by raquel welch and ralph richardson.this is a full screen print and the top and bottom were hacked off and also this is a shorter version with many scenes deleted,i have to give this superb movie a one star not because of the movie but for the company who hacked this version up.the best advice i can give you is STAY AWAY FROM THIS PRINT and wait for a decent complete version with correct aspect ratio hopefully either anchor bay or criterion would pick this up.........
