Featured review
When Timmy and his friends Jamie and Mick decide to watch their favorite cartoon on Timmy's father's new invention, they are sucked into the world of the cartoon, but sadly, they see it is not as colorful and perfect as they think, and now must team up with the heroes to save Saur City from total meltdown at the hand of Mr. Big and his Rockies.
Yeah, the movie is cheesy, but seeing as how the world is inside a cartoon, it actually works for this film. While the outside look like a kids' cartoon, the world when the kids enter looks as imperfect as the real world, as there are some stuff that would not fly in a kid's cartoon (one scene has the three kids going through a graveyard that Mick says "would've been too scary for kids", and another takes place inside a bar). Thankfully, the actors do a good job, and the dinosaur characters, which are a mix of puppets and suit actors, are incredible for a movie that was made for television. This is a good cheesy movie that is worth checking out at least once.
