Customer Reviews of Dinosaur
A dinosaur Apocalypse for kids that can be too scary! If you've got kids, take them to see this movie! It's incredible -- sort of. BUT, personally, I wouldn't take kids under 7. It's kinda scary in places, and when the Carnosaurs eat the friendly dinosaurs -- or when the family of monkees gets killed -- the kids will ball their eyes out. They don't need to see whole families wiped out and eaten at that age. Call me conservative or something, but I just don't see how that helps kids.
The story is basically the same as THE LAND BEFORE TIME --dinosaurs looking for a safe haven. Here we have the a meteor shower which supposedly is going to lead to their extinction -- but the meteors fall like rain. It's nasty and all that... but hardly good science. Plus, the dinos act just like people, and that is sort of a put off -- especially because of the way the film begins -- very nature based and keen on painting a realistic visual.
The graphics are at times incredible and at other times blurry and indistinct. This animation was supposed to be the best ever -- I thought some of the shots were just that, and then most of it was bland and dark. I've noticed that most of these computer animation shots are dark -- perhaps because if they were lit up enough the eye'd be able to spot all their flaws. I dunno. But it was annoying and the effect was like watching a drive-in movie at dusk, before it's completely dark -- the color and detail is sort of washed away. I think that explains it well enough.
But the story did have a good message, and it was clear and strait-forward enough. And at least it was a family movie that adults could sit through without getting stomach cramps and wanting to vomit in the aisle -- I think I'll pass on the new Pokemon movie coming out this summer, I don't care how much my nephew begs!
I give it 2 stars all along... perhaps a bit more from a kid's perspective. But I'll say this much... my nephew (little JJ) was far more excited about the film BEFORE seeing it than he was afterwards (he even got us a couple dinosaur hand puppets and we sat in the theater attacking each other before the movie started! :). And at one point in the film he even said, "Uncle Johnny, this is a bad movie." He said that when the Carnosaur was eating the poor defenseless dinosaur.
Sure, that may well be the "real world" and all that... but too much for kids.
WOW!,AND ENJOY THE MOVIE.
All man,when I saw Dinosuar at a theater,I was totally amaze with the special effects of the Dinosaur.The dinosaur look so real!"I mean wow!" I like when they use a real background of the jungle and a desert with a digitally dino,that really work great together.
You know I don't care about the story,I know the story is weak but I don't care about it and people don't like the Dinosaur that start talking,so what!,look at other disney cartoon movie like The Lion King and Tarzan,they talk too.Watch BBC walking with Dinosaur instead they don't talk on the movie. I like this movie and is good and I enjoy it,my younger brother enjoy it too.
I bought the Dinosaur 2 disc special edition,I've play both of the disc on my old 16 month Panasonic A120 DVD player and it play fine.There no freeze on some part of the scenes I watch and I watch the supplemental material,no problem there too.I've watch Dinosaur fifth time already and the disc work good on my dvd player,strange hey that Dinosaur dvd can't play on those other people dvd player,that not good for people who not get to listen a dts surround sound on Dinosaur,but for me,I've heard it and it's awesome! :-)
The Land Before Trash Like This
What a joke. Before I trash this movie let me just say the only thinkg keeping this from 1 star is the interesting idea to use real backrounds with the CGI characters. I can't tell if it was an act of genious or lazyness. But either way it came out pretty good.
Now for the reason it got 2 stars. Disney has sunk to an all time low. Not only have they made a silly attempt to copy the success of Pixar films, but they went so far as to shamelessly rip off The Land Before Time. I mean, they didn't even try to make the story original. The opening scene copies the opening scene in the TLBT almost directly. What's worse is that I went into the theatre expecting this to be the best movie ever. I came out wanting to throw up from digust of this trash. I thought the whole movie was going to be like the promo trailer and nobody would talk. It would just be a visual art piece. But then I heard them talk and I was appalled. Another thing that drove me crazy was the fact that a lot of the characters just weren't lovable. I'm going to spoil something right now. 80% OF THAT MONKEY FAMILY DIES AND THE REMAINING DON'T CARE AT ALL!! Sure they cry for one second then they just go back to being comic relief. It's just not a good movie and I can't recomend it.
