OK, having seen many movies about the Stone Age, we should know that the men were all buff dudes, and the women were all buxom babes. That's certainly the case here. Obviously, no part of "One Million Years B.C." really makes sense - humans and dinosaurs never existed contemporaneously - but that doesn't matter. The movie was intended as entertainment, and it's very enjoyable. Maybe that's just because we get to see Raquel Welch in a bikini, but the dinosaurs are also pretty cool. The movie makes us nostalgic for the era, even though we never experienced it.

So, it's brain candy to the max, and it doesn't pretend to be anything else. You're sure to like it, if only for the thought of Raquel Welch dressed like that.

Raquel Welch's later, more solid acting performances will never erase our memories of this dinosaur-epic wherein she runs around in full cavegirl regalia. Then again, she may not want them to. Time has been surprisingly kind to this reworking of 1940's "One Million B.C." The special effects are very good, the wilds of prehistoric nature are often excitingly, colorfully captured, and handsome John Richardson is charismatic as a caveman who, along with Welch, ditches his tribe to set out on a personal journey. Yes, it's Raquel in a fur-bikini that most people will remember, but a good time is had by all. **1/2 from ****

This movie is a remake of an earlier bad caveman film by the same title. The only interesting thing about either film is the casting of Victor Mature in the original and Raquel Welch in the remake. Casting Welch was not a bad idea, as watching her grunt, be chased by dinosaurs and dance around half undressed is indeed preferable to seeing Victor Mature do the same! However, this being said, all these elements do not add up to a movie any sane person would want to see. I mean, think about it, people grunting and using "caveman talk" for about an hour and a half!! Boy, even with Ms. Welch's breasts so prominently displayed, this movie becomes almost immediately boring! Think about that for a moment--this beautiful actress is scantily clad and yet the movie quickly becomes boring--it takes a lot of effort to do that!!
