Before I start this review, let me let you guys know that this review may contain a few spoiler alerts, viewer discretion is advised. Reptilian (or Yonggary) is a 2001 remake of the 1960s classic Yonggary. Yonggary was Korea's answer to Godzilla. The story in this movie is about an ancient monster called "Yonggary" gets resurrected by the aliens from outer space, the aliens have control over Yonggary and they made him go out destroying the town. Then towards the end of the film, one of the soldiers destroyed the crystal on Yonggary's forehead, then later, we get another monster & it's also from the aliens. Now let's see if I would recommend this film or not. Pros: -None at all Cons: -Horrible acting -Bad plot -Very mediocre final battle scene -Poor CGI effects (Yonggary looks like something I can expect from a Dreamcast game) -Boring soundtrack -Bad cinematography -Bad cover design Overall, this movie gets a 2 out of 10. This movie is worse than Godzilla 1998, both of these movies should be avoided at all costs, but again, I'll rather watch Godzilla 1998 than this god-awful ugly Korean rip-off. The endRated PG-13 for some violence & mild coarse language.

...this is the kind of movie he would make.I've seen some very bad scifi and horror movies, but this one is on a class of it's own. As bad as the acting is, one still can't help but feel a bit sorry for the actors for having to spout out such astonishingly inane dialogue, and to portray characters that couldn't possibly be more stereotypical, in a storyline that would make the average 12 year old cringe.Ed Wood's movies became classics because they were so earnest, yet so genuinely bad that they became funny. "Younggary" distinctly fails to be scary, simply because it is so utterly silly in all respects, and the storyline has more holes than swiss cheese, but it may have some minute appeal in the similar vain as Ed Wood's material, provided that the audience is in the right frame of mind. And preferably quite drunk.

"Yonggary" is a pretty amusing film about a big lizard from Korea named Yonggary.It's a fine example of giant monster flick that will keep most monster lovers entertained.The special effects are horrible,but they are still fun to watch.The script by Marty Poole is laughable.The acting by a bunch of unknowns is not too hot,either.The film features giant monsters,car chases,exploding jets and helicopters,spaceships and space aliens,so kids won't be disappointed.I love horror movies,but this one is surely nothing special.Avoid it,but if you have enough time to waste...4 out of 10.

Before I start, this is the first time I commented on a Korean monster film, my previous films I commented were American and Japanese. Now let's begin. The film is a combo between INDEPENDENCE DAY, DESTROY ALL MONSTERS, and the 1998 GODZILLA. No one has ever attempted to do that. Remake a forgotten classic. The miniatures were well done, but the CGI spaceships and monsters, look like something from BEAST WARS. Plus the aliens in the ship, were puppets. Lousy. Yonngary starts out as an atagonist, to a protagonist.Cyker sounds like a POKEMON name. But is a combo between a tortise, and a scorpion. I saw this on the Sci-Fi channel recently. But two years ago, I made Power Point presentation on this film and other Korean monster flicks, like 1967's YONGARY: MONSTER FROM THE DEEP, A*P*E*, PULGASARI, just to name afew. This lead me to high grades, since I decided to do a presintation on something no one has ever seen nor heard of. Does anyone one want a sequel to this movie? Erm (clear throat), no. Zero-Nine Pictures (est. 1993 with the first film, YOUNG-GOO AND DINOSAUR ZUZU) has announced that they are making a film called D-WAR about dragons attacking medival and modern day Korea. It is due out in 2004. But when it will be dubbed in English? I have no idea. Oh well, at least this film won at the 1999 Cannes film festival. Got updated in 2001 as 2001 YONGGARY (US video title REPTILIAN). Cool flick eh?
