Brightlyme i know i wasted 90 mins of my life.

Glucedee It's hard to see any effort in the film. There's no comedy to speak of, no real drama and, worst of all.

Aedonerre I gave this film a 9 out of 10, because it was exactly what I expected it to be.

Hulkeasexo it is the rare 'crazy' movie that actually has something to say.

andy_c_les Yes it's cheesey nonsense but what do you expect. I have no idea why it gets slated on here the film is hysterical, much better than that Lala land crap.

ryebailey2002 As a Will Ferrell fan, this absurd movie was entertaining enough. The plot is kind of insane, but there were multiples parts where I laughed until I almost cried. In the end, I'm glad I watched this movie. It had enough twists and turns to keep me interested and had all the elements of classic Will Ferrell and Danny McBride humor.

Wuchak Released in 2009 and directed by Brad Silberling, "Land of the Lost" stars Will Ferrell as a dubious paleontologist who is obsessed with experimenting with time warps. Inspired by a doctoral candidate student (Anna Friel), they try out his time-travel contraption in the desert and are flung to another realm where dinosaurs, half-ape men and reptilian people called Sleestaks reside. Danny McBride plays a tourist attraction owner who goes along for the wild ride; Jorma Taccone appears as Chaka.The movie was partially produced & written by Sid & Marty Krofft, the creators of the Land of the Lost TV series that ran from 1974-1977 on Saturday mornings, but also aired daily in syndication in the early 80s. Obviously with Ferrell as the star, the film version is more of a comedy than the original show, but this direction was approved by the Krofft brothers. It's reminiscent of 2008's "Journey to the Center of the Earth" but with an even more goofy vibe. I give that one the edge.The primitive world that the protagonists encounter is imaginative, but it's thoroughly CGI cartoony, which I suppose is fitting given the nature of the TV series. In any case, while this is a throwaway fantasy comedy, I regularly laughed throughout and therefore it accomplished its purpose, it entertained me. Speaking of laughing, the humor runs the gamut of stoo-pid, silly, bathroom and crude.The tyrannosaurus looks great and is even terrifying; he interestingly becomes a character of sorts. Anna Friel is likable and fits well, but she looks decidedly anorexic. If you prefer women with the non-curves of 12 year-old boys you'll likely appreciate her more than me. IMO the role called for someone like Carrie Keagan, Kelli Garner or Dominique Swain.The movie run 102 minutes and was shot at Universal Studios, California, with outside sequences done in Southern California (Dumont Dunes, La Brea Tar Pits, Lancaster & Trona).GRADE: B-

ladiebug-91476 Overall Land of the Lost did not get the credit it deserved. As a huge Will Ferrell fan, Land of the Lost was just added on to one of my favorites. In order to appreciate his humor, as a person, you have to be extremely "stoned" or just understand his level of sarcasm. The lightheartedness of Ferrell's humor and psychedelic twist to this film is what made it fun. Although it was a big budget movie people expected to much from it, often times watching many of Will Ferrell's movies, you have to go in with an open mind.
