SciFi Channel Original Movie: Jurassic Park + Amelia Earhardt + Pitch Black + a pinch of WW2 = Warbirds 2008.

I would have to call it a "Good bad movie", as most of the acting is cheesy, and there is only one type of boring flying dinosaur.

The dialog is filled with so many over used clichés, and homilies, you would do well not to be drinking anything while watching it, as it can be truly laughable. What was even funnier, was their repairing their plane out in the open, with barely guarded prisoners, falling for the "Oh I feel so faint!" ruse from one of them. And how the heck would a Japanese soldier know what a Geiger Counter was,and why it was clicking?! Yeah, like they would all miss the other guy sneaking into the big bomber plane. Yeesh! It was good to do a "MST3K" while watching it with friends.

But I do wonder how all these female pilots, out on an uncharted island, in harsh jungle conditions, keep their ruby red lipstick, and don't even chip a nail, after a few days. But I do like how the "Skipper" saves the Colonels' butt on more than one occasion.
