How unintentionally bad is it? 7
How enjoyably bad is it? 7
This is a children's film that plays like a very poor episode of the early 1990's TV show "Dinosaurs," which must have been their inspiration. Some kids have a favorite animated TV show (called "Dinosaurs") and happen to have inventor parents that made a sort-of time machine in their garage that can be controlled with a big 1990's remote control - which we later learn has a disintegrate the thing you point at function! The kids get sucked into a different dimension with their favorite TV show's characters and have to battle the evil Mr. Big who's building a tower that must be destroyed; at no point is the tower explained. The bad guys turn out to be neanderthalish (there's a cro-magnon joke in there as well). The rubber lizard costumes are cheesy. There's some really uncomfortable creepy moments as a teenage girl's breasts become the focus of, well, everyone. There's endless convenient plot adjustments - oh, hey, I can fly, whattayaknow? (oh, and there's some Joisey accents, for no apparent reason). It's so lame that it can be enjoyed for its lameness.
