Good story, Not enough for a whole film
Pretty good movie overall. First half was nothing special but it got better as it went along.
The best films of this genre always show a path and provide a takeaway for being a better person.
Blistering performances.
This is where the Land Before Time franchise got really good. The story is very interesting and actually has some tension for once. Sure, a few things don't make sense but in my opinion, it doesn't amount to much. The animation has improved a bit but not by much. Oh yeah, and Chomper is back, and he can talk! Yay? Okay to be fair, Chomper is pretty cute and the family dynamic between his parents is still adorable. I also thought that the action scenes were pretty brutal. Watching 3 T-rexes fight each other was highly entertaining and they showed blood! Yeah I was just as shocked as some of you were watching that action scene. Also, in one of the songs Little foot mentions his mother for the first time since the first movie. I was so close to tears when I rewatched the song. Yeah, the song is poorly sung but the lyrics are beautiful. The other 2 songs are tolerable but nothing special.
What's cool about this sequel is that we find out T-Rexes have their own language. Subtitles translate the roars. Chomper of course speaks English because of previous acquaintance with our favourite babies. The "Always There" song is heartwarming. The story is strong and will keep everyone entertained. 9/10
One of the reasons I love this film is the song 'always there' where littlefoot sings a verse about his mother. That has NEVER happened before or since this movie was made and it brought a tear to my eye.The other songs are fun, the art brightly coloured and it's action packed...What more could a fan want?Well better voices for one. Chomper and littlefoot both sound like they have a cold. ahh well I can't be too picky.Kids and long time fans will love it.oh and chomper comes back too.
my kid's love "the land before time" series they learn new songs and see new things my kids are 2 and 4 and find this movies one of there favorites...especially with the song "BIG water" which they sing along with. They identify great with the characters get excited when little foot and his friends get excited they laugh when little foot laughs its an enjoyable movies along with all the movies before it ....its also great as the parents watch with their kids and sing the songs even when the movies off and have a great time. MY vote is a BIG thumbs up!!!
