XoWizIama Excellent adaptation.

AshUnow This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.

Bea Swanson This film is so real. It treats its characters with so much care and sensitivity.

Kirandeep Yoder The joyful confection is coated in a sparkly gloss, bright enough to gleam from the darkest, most cynical corners.

tankace Dinosaur Planet was made in 2003 and in a way is the American counterpart of Walking with Dinosaurs and it more of a focus on a specific dinosaur rather than a safari ,like the Original. To be honest the cgi here has not aged as well as the Walking series and the fact that the environments were digitally edited ,also alienated me for I was used to cgi creatures into a real environment, with no editing in the environment. This are the drawbacks of the series, but its pros are far more strong and important. For instance the series show you fascinating new things you certainly ignore about the dinosaurs and the fact that it is a focus series allows you to understand how the creature feel, though I have to admit that on occasion ,it becomes a bit anthropomorphistic, seen it with human qualities, which is a little selfish. However the overall experience of this documentary was a nice one and the series is available online so ,I recommended to watch it, is for certain a fun ,informative ride dispute the forgiving flaws it has.

turboguppy I think this series is actually very well done. Complaints about "Dinosaurs doing stupid and unbelievable things" fly right past me... I mean, who hasn't seen PEOPLE do some pretty stupid and unbelievable things??? When Das, for example, runs into his mother, knocking her prey right out of her mouth, well, it's a mistake. We've all made mistakes. You have to keep in mind that this is a STORY, and thus must have tension, sympathy, and other elements that a straight documentary might not provide. While I really loved Walking With Dinosaurs, I believe Dinosaur planet further rounds out the education and fascination with Dinosaurs. I give it an 8 because it's not the best show I've ever seen, and is definitely not on par with Walking With Dinosaurs, but I highly recommend it to anyone who simply loves Dinosaurs! If you are picky about 'scientific errors,' please keep in mind that all we know about dinosaur behavior is guesswork, even the best guesses are probably off quite a bit. Suspend your disbelief for just a bit, and enjoy the story! If you find inaccuracies, great! That just means you were paying attention. Go ahead and point them out. Read up on them, see if you are right. It's all part of the learning process, and I for one, am more interested in learning than complaining and nitpicking.

dbborroughs Four stories of varying quality concerning four dinosaurs and their struggles to survive.Because its a Discovery Channel Production, the place where the landmark series Walking with Dinosaurs played in the US and because Discovery played up the similarities one will have to make a comparison. In my eyes Walking With Dinosaurs is the clear winner, thats not to say that Dinosaur Planet is bad, its not, its just much too long for what it is.Where Walking was a semi documentary (but mostly a best guess) on how dinosaurs lived. Here we have hour long stories about the fights for survival of four different animals. We follow them as they try to survive in the various locations they live in with each animal getting name in the narration. Its a dinosaur version of Wild Kingdom. The problem is that each story goes on for an hour. Thats all fine and all but there isn't enough story to hold the attention for an hour for each of the characters, especially since the eat and be eaten theme gets a bit too over played.I liked it at first, and probably would have enjoyed it more in small bits instead of the four hour marathon I saw it in.Worth a shot on cable, especially if you love dinosaurs. Not sure about a rental and certainly see it before you buy it.

EugeneandSasha Most people say this is a lot worse than Walking With Dinosaurs. Although Walking With Dinosaurs is more accurate to how dinosaurs actually were, Dinosaur Planet is much more entertaining. Their are some nice visuals in Dinosaur Planet and a lot of action and intense violent scenes. I'd recommend this to anyone who has the slightest interest in dinosaurs. Some people complain that they saw dinosaurs walking on grass. First of all, the "grass" was probably a type of grass-like plant that evolved earlier. Second of all even if it were grass that doesn't ruin the film and only real Dino nerds would care about that too much. Overall this is one of the best dinosaur documentaries ever made.9.8/10
