Land of the Lost

by Chris Henchy and Dennis McNicholas, directed by Brad Silberling

The 70s TV show (which had no actual time travel, but did have dinosaurs from another dimension) is updated as paleontologist Rick Marshall propounds time warps, as embodied by his tachyon amplifier, as the solution to today’s energy problems. Even though everyone else thinks he’s crazy, one graduate student, Holly Cantrell, encourages him to finish the device (her confidence coming from a fossil of a 265-million-year-old cigarette lighter, and together with souvenir hawker Will, they set off to “another dimension where past, present and future all meet.”

The movie has a high enough silliness quotient that it can only be truly appreciated en español (especially preferable if you are not a Spanish speaker).

— Michael Main
Rick: It’s the only real solution to solving this fossil fuel crisis we’re experiencing, and it boils down to two simple words.
Matt Lauer: Renewable biofuels.
Rick: Close . . .: time warps.

Land of the Lost by Chris Henchy and Dennis McNicholas, directed by Brad Silberling (at movie theaters, Canada and USA, 5 June 2009).
