Goofs

Except for the two B-29s which actually dropped atomic bombs, no aircraft in World War II every carried a fully assembled atomic bomb, or even all of the unassembled components for such a bomb. Due to their weight and size, the casings and heavy components of bombs were sent by ship. Many of the internal components were flow to their destination. A B-29 required special modifications to be able to carry an assembled atomic bomb.

Filmmaker with a bright future!

I think it's wonderful that film industry executives support the work of filmmakers in the "Age 12 and Under" category. This filmmaker may have a bright future, although I wouldn't advise that he give up his paper route just yet.

Dinosaur effects: 3 stars

I personally have not seen such screen presence since the team of Deacon Jones and Fred Biletnikoff as Vikings in the Lee Majors vehicle The Norseman (1978, look it up!).

In retrospect I'm astounded that this film wasn't directed by Alan Smithee.
