Actually, I liked this one much better than the first even though the premise behind the whole thing is really dumb. A super-secret military base in the Nevada desert goes offline and the nearest electrical crew are civilians. I could have sworn that Nellis Air Force Base and Area 51 are in Nevada. Surely either one of these locations could have a crew there in no time via jet helicopter.

Also, there is a kid on the base that has hacked into every secure program on the computers and has broken the security codes to enter every room in the complex. Talk about lax security.

If you can put these two things in the back of your mind you'll be okay.

The military guy that accompanies the crew there is so much of a dork that I gave a standing ovation when he finally bought it. Any time the crew tries to fix anything or asks a question all he can spit out is "That's Classified." Geez, what a nerd. He's as helpful as a bad case of Diarrhea.

As I said, it takes place in a military compound "80 miles" from nowhere. The electrical crew is taken there to supposedly fix a wiring problem. However, when they get there the base is deserted except for some bloodstains and a kid who's in a state of severe shock.

There seems to be a few more problems besides the wiring. Namely, there is a stockpile of retired plutonium warheads in the basement and they are leaking radiation like crazy and may even detonate. Another minor irritation is a bunch of hungry man-eating dinosaurs. Oh yeah, I almost forgot to mention, their helicopter crashed and burned due to a dinosaur eating the pilot in mid air. So they have no means of escape.

The crew set dynamite traps that get rid of a few dinos but there must be a lot of these critters roaming around the complex cause they just keep coming and coming. Naturally, the people get picked off one by one. By the time an evacuation team arrives there's only the kid and one other left. But a big mean T-Rex shows up just as they are about to leave and the kid takes it on with a forklift truck.

The dinos are much more realistic in this one than the first and the action is constant. It's definitely worth a rental if you like watching heads and other appendages being ripped off. I do!
