Terrible Plan! Movie Reviews

What I liked: I went in with low expectations, for some reason I was thinking this was direct to DVD grade. It far exceeded my expectations. There were dinosaurs. The mathematician was back and he is funny. I liked the bearded paleontologist. From my brief stint in paleontology this seemed fairly accurate.

Nightcrawler wears a thriller jacket and is entertaining. Just lik
