Does anyone know if this movie is coming to the States?

I just found this film at Wal-Mart today. I bought it and i am about to watch it.   I was afraid it would never come to the states

My thoghts on the Movie

Decent Kid Flick, Im sure if i were myself at 12 years of age, i would love this film more then i do. The Animals were fantastic, and put the JP Dinos to shame,(though the T.Rex was a little too funky looking).  The story was decent with a Kid Getting lost on a Island of Dinosaurs throgh some sysmic myst caused by a crystal he found at his Grandmas House.  On the Island, he meets a Girl whose from the 1940s and is obsessed with the world she is stuck in.   In the film, you have Blue Dromeosaurs with red breasts that chase after the protagonist. A little Blue Sinoithosaurus (That Microraptor you see in the trailers) that can mimic things like a lyre Bird. Large Fictional Pterosaurs with long tails, Mastodons, Stegosaurus, Sauropods, Iguanodon, Tricertops, Arthroplura, and a brief scene with a Tembspodyl amphibian.

Really i boght this for the Attention to detail on the cretures. Though there are some anatomical flaws (pronated hands is the biggest)

I've rather liked what I've seen of the DI Rex...colors not withstanding. Then I saw this today. https://38.media.tumblr.com/64e84b14a85008eb95da98672f1b5e4b/tumblr_nifyyvWQpf1u8wqano1_400.gif

Just got around to watching this. The plot, dialogue and acting are pretty cringe worthy, but the only reason to watch this is the impressive menagerie of prehistoric creatures, most of which are seen only briefly:
Tyrannosaurus
two Dromeaosaurs
Sinornithosaurus (the hero animal of the film, named Mimos)
Guanlong
Iguanodon bernissartensis (species name mentioned in film)
Parasaurolophus
Stegosaurus
Pachycephalosaurus
Triceratops
Camarasaurus
Apatosaurus
Some sort of Mammoth/Mastodon
A fictional Pterosaur combining Pteranodon, Quetzalcoatlus and Rhamphorhynchus.
an Ichthyostega type amphibian
Arthropluera
Two kinds of Ammonite
A huge pitcher plant that, annoyingly, had eyes!

The animation's what you'd expect from a low budget movie, but the creature design is pretty good. Something I find annoying is the fact that the girl, who is from the 1950's, knows what most of the dinosaurs are named, including Sinornithosaurus, which hadn't been discovered in her time. Maybe she got hold of a time travelling dinosaur book from a later era?
