A space-time vortex sucks scientist Rick Marshall (Will Ferrell), his assistant Holly (Anna Friel) and a survivalist Will (Danny R. McBride) into a world populated by dinosaurs and painfully slow creatures called Sleestaks. With few resources at their disposal, Rick, Holly and Will must rely on their only ally, a primate named Chaka (Jorma Taccone), to try to survive long enough to figure out a way back home.

Critics Consensus

Only loosely based on the original TV series, Land of the Lost is decidedly less kid-friendly and feels more like a series of inconsistent sketches than a cohesive adventure comedy.

Deep Focus Review

Plenty of computer-generated dinosaurs and wondrous locales make up the scenery, but the movie lacks adventure and humor, the only two selling points this material has going for it.

Rated: 1.5/4

Gone With The Twins

It doesn't help that everyone easily outruns the T-Rex, language barriers are introduced but practically ignored, and every dilemma or antagonist presents zero real threat.

Rated: 5/10

ZanderMan L This is an underrated movie to say the least. If you hate this movie, than I have no time for you. It was funny, intelligent and even used real concepts found in theoretical physics. It is fun and took us all on a ride. This is a 5 star movie. One of the best comedies of the 21st century. Love it. Rated 5/5 Stars • Rated 5 out of 5 stars 11/22/24 Full Review Bruno S Diversão rápida e descomprometida... Somente! Rated 3/5 Stars • Rated 3 out of 5 stars 10/29/24 Full Review Alina H With a great cast, humerous characters, superb set design, score, funny bits that play out like comedy sketches, and CGI that still hold up today, Land of the Lost makes for a fun time at the movies even with a plot that's not entirely special. Rated 3.5/5 Stars • Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 09/06/24 Full Review Xavier O This movie is amazing. The “critics” here have no clue. Who can say this lacks humor. This is a master piece. 100/10. Danny McBride is the goat and Will is Will. Rated 5/5 Stars • Rated 5 out of 5 stars 08/29/24 Full Review James E Not the greatest work for most of the cast and crew. It confuses its serious moments with comedy and its comedic moments with random jokes that don’t fit the rest of the joke. It has surprisingly decent cgi and not all of the jokes fall flat. It’s an easy watch for easy laughs that you forget about after the movie ends. Rated 1.5/5 Stars • Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 06/12/24 Full Review Dashell N Don't trust the reviews it's really good Rated 5/5 Stars • Rated 5 out of 5 stars 06/11/24 Full Review Read all reviews
