Movie Reviews of Dinosaur
Movie Review: A Brief Lesson...
Summary: 5 Stars
The movie 'Dinosaur' is definitely one of my favorite movies--especially since I was a "dinosaur" child of the 80s. I grew up with Dinosaur TV shows and The Land Before Time...not to mention Jurassic Park (wow! Blew me away...and still does). One reviewer said that 'Dinosaur' lacks something of a definite villain...this does not mean that it's a bad movie in terms of storyline. As if people are always, in "real life", clearly "villainous" or "good". This harldly ever happens.
I commend Disney for its job done in this movie...I feel for the characters as they struggle to survive (oh...if only some were still living!)...and find that this movie says a lot regarding how we diregard other people, discriminate others...
And also...no one exists without some kind of purpose.

Movie Review: Awesome
Summary: 5 Stars
Absitively posolutely the most realistic animation I've ever seen. It's so good, in fact, that as much as I wanted to notice it, to pay attention to how good it was, I kept forgetting that it wasn't real and just enjoyed the movie. I would buy this movie on VHS, because the the story was good enough to watch over and over. Because of the animation (and the excellence of the 5.1 soundtrack), this one screams out for DVD.
You don't need kids to own this (but there are features on the DVD just for kids), you just need to want to see how good DVD can be.
Toy Story was a new standard of animation quality (Call it a perfect 10 of a movie). Toy Story 2 wasn't twice as good (20), it was Toy Story squared (100). Dinosaur is like Toy Story cubed (1000).
Again, awesome.
Movie Review: #9 ON MY TOP TEN FAVORITE MOVIES LIST
Summary: 5 Stars
Kids movies seem a bit out of place in my top ten list especially since they're surrounded by mostly R-rated movies. But somehow this movie squeezed in that adult-movie gap. I was honestly surprised by how good this movie is, especially since they managed to cram a PG-13 level of violence into a PG film. I even counted how many deaths there were in the movie(Nine in total, and that's not even counting the island of lemurs and the island of dinosaurs that were destroyed by the meteor shower that occurs). It's too bad though Disney really sucks nowadays. I would recommend even the most R-rated infatuated movie-lovers this film because of how excellent it is and surprisingly violent and interesting. It's also too bad we'll probably never see a film from Disney like this again.Movie Review: five stars
Summary: 5 Stars
I watched this film with my 4.5 yr old. And I like it more than he did. Seems like there was not enough "action" for him, not enough silly gags, screaming and bumping around.. Standard good animation notwithstanding, I liked this film for two reasons: cause it's a dinosaur animated film and because it touched on all the things we want our childern to learn, but we ourselves forget: friendship, loyalty, being different, loneliness, heroism, sacrifice, fairness and its opposite.. this film is a wonderful illustration of the basics I want my child to learn / take from home and stand for when he grows up. I recommend it to kids and adults alike.Movie Review: A great family movie!
Summary: 5 Stars
My son & I watched this for the first time when he was 3. He's 5 now and he loves to watch it every few days and his sister (age 3) loves it as well. The movie itself has incredible pictures and images. Everything seems so real. This movie covers some basic facts of life without making it teary or overwelming for a small child. I agree with above posters that it's helpful to be there when your child watches this for the first time, because they will have questions...
And what more can you ask for out of a movie? A great film that encourages conversation and interaction between adults and kids!
