We love this DVD. Our grandsons spent the weekend with us and just loved the movie. My husband and I watch this movie at least once a year just for the joy. Small toddlers may get scared by some of the scenes. I would keep it to 6 years and older.
May 22, 2008While the animation was very good and some of the story lines were interesting, I felt the performances of some of the actors were poor and an overall "slickness" spoiled the series for me.

My kids really enjoyed the movie, so when I saw that there was a series made, I thought it would be great too, especially since Hallmark made both of them. Well, I was disappointed to see that the series did not stick to some of the original themes of the movie, new characters, and alot more gore. They still did not show alot of blood, but it was too scary for my youngest to watch and I was nervous about a couple of the next youngest having nightmares. So far we only have viewed the first two episodes, and I'm afraid the remainder will only be viewed by my older ones. Such a shame as the original was enjoyed by all of us.

The Dinotopia series just started and was cancelled within a few weeks. Too bad, it was a good series for the family. I purchased the set to see the episodes that were never shown. Many of these were better than the first few.
This is a good buy for someone who wants a few hours of enjoyable family entertainment.
