| EricDSnider.comEric D. SniderIt's the kind of bad movie that's so inoffensive and harmless that it almost seems unfair to point out how bad it is. |
| Beaumont JournalDanny MintonThe special effects in this pic make Land of the Lost look like Jurassic Park. |
| EDGE BostonDavid FoucherAs usual, a cool Ray Bradbury story has been translated into a horrifyingly bad film. |
| MovieJuice!Mark RamseyEven a single butterfly can alter the course of evolution - particularly if this butterfly is tattooed over Britney Spears' crotch. |
| One Guy's OpinionFrank SwietekEven in a season of bad action movies, this one marks a new low...doesn't go beyond the level of the most puerile 1940s serial. |
| Reno Gazette-JournalForrest HartmanThere's plenty of room to poke holes in the premise, but folks willing to suspend disbelief can still have a good time. |
| San Francisco ChronicleMick LaSalleIf movies have personalities, this one has an appealing one, combining scientific inquisitiveness with giddy pleasure in creating tension for viewers. |
| Fantastica DailyChuck O'LearyA good B movie. A Sound of Thunder once again proves that nobody, possibly with the exception of Paul Verhoeven, does sci-fi thrillers better than Peter Hyams. |
| Seattle Post-IntelligencerWilliam ArnoldThough he tries hard for bravado, hero Edward Burns is terminally wooden. |
| Dallas Morning NewsPhilip WuntchThe dialogue strives for witty banter, but most laughs are unintentional. |
