It is a performances centric movie

Boring, over-political, tech fuzed mess

It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.

The thing I enjoyed most about the film is the fact that it doesn't shy away from being a super-sized-cliche;

The Land Before Time was one of my favorite movies growing up, and it still is. The magic of this timeless adventure never gets old and when I watch it, it brings back a lot of memories. This movie (and Jurassic Park) is what got me to love dinosaurs in the first place.This story comes from the minds of George Lucas and Steven Spielberg and I have to say it is one of their greatest cartoon movies that I have ever seen. The story is about a young brontosaurus who's family is traveling to a paradise on earth known as the great valley, but trouble comes when a "Sharp tooth" or Tyrannosaurus Rex attacks, injures his mother, and she eventually dies. Now alone, Little Foot as he is known journeys on his own and eventually runs into Cera a Triceratops, Ducky a duck billed dinosaur, Spike a Stegosaurus, and Petry Pteranodon. Together they journey and have there ups and downs but eventually become good friends. And Together they defeat Sharp Tooth and make it to the great valley.This childhood classic will never get old for me and no matter how old I get I will continue to watch it. And hopefully I can share it with my own children someday. It's a good movie and a good story, kids might get frightened with Sharp Tooth as the film makes him out to be kind of scary, but all in all it's a good story that teaches life lessons of not giving up, friendship, having to not always be right and making mistakes, and having hope for the future. I consider this Lucas's and Spielberg's greatest Kids film, the part where Little Foot loses his mother is heartbreaking and one of the most sad parts of the film. But The Land Before Time is a fun adventure that you will not only love but your kids will love. 10/10 for The Land Before Time

Littlefoot is the last baby born to a small herd of Longnecks with only his mother, grandmother and grandfather. The world is changing and they must walk to the paradise of the Great Valley. They are attacked by a Sharptooth and an earthquake separates Littlefoot from his family. Longnecks are not suppose to play with Threehorns like Cera. When Littlefoot's mother dies, he is left alone to walk to the Great Valley. Along the way, others join him including orphan Ducky, flyer Petrie, a spiketail and Cera who is also separated from her family.Producers Steven Spielberg and George Lucas have created Bambi with dinosaurs. It has the same hand drawn style. It has some pretty dark edges to the story. The story may be trying to do too much. It's a bit angry and dark at times. It may not be for the smallest of the little ones.

The Land Before Time is a great movie with a very well developed storyline and a terrific voice cast that really suit their characters personality.The movie is very short,only being about an hour and ten minutes long,so if you're looking for a quick but enjoyable family film then I would definitely recommend this.It says in the trivia that a lot of scenes were removed because they seemed too dramatic for children,I think they should have kept these scenes because it would have developed the characters some more and make the movie longer,it's up to the parents to decide whether it's alright for their kids to watch it or not.You will fall in love with these characters very early on and support them throughout,they are very sweet and lovable.The Land Before Time is a very enjoyable movie that I would recommend to anyone looking for a good family film or animation. An orphaned brontosaurus and his friends fend for themselves as they venture towards safety.

This movie is very short at just over an hour long and it is a shame that a lot of bits that were deemed too 'violent' were edited out of it. Another bad thing that stopped me giving it a 10/10 was that the continuity wasn't great in a part which had obviously been edited. It has wonderful animation though, and the score is just beautiful, the plot is great and you will cry if you are lucky. There is a lot of character development considering how short the movie is and it can be interpreted in different ways. I personally believe that the plot of the movie was slightly different before it was edited, possibly having more death. One of the main themes of the movie is that if you stick together with friends and use your various talents, you can do anything and come through trials and tribulations easier than if you go alone. A must see for any child over 5.
