to enjoy this movie and you have to take it for what it be . i use to wonder if disney be go to make a movie about dinosaur and when they do and it wasn not a bad choice to combine ggi character with real background . i be impress by the trailer and when i finally saw dinosaur first time and i like some part and but overall i find the movie a little mediocre . see it for the second time and i appreciate and like it more and so and once again represent you have get to take it for what it be to really enjoy it . the visuals be absolutely the big highlight of the film and especially combine with the beautiful and ( in my opinion ) quirky score of james newton howard . the character be quite all right too ( especially aladar and zini and eema ) and although the film focus more to move the plot forward . the only character i do not like be kron . he so straight forward and narrow mind that he get just uninteresting . i be never a fan of the land before time ( in fact i hat that movie ) and who have many similarity to dinosaur . like most of u know and the story be unoriginal and ( a expect ) come with the usual disney moral . but the real problem with this film be that it seem like the director and screenwriter disagree for which audience this movie would fit too ( although it be rat pg ) . for kid it could be too scary ( especially the carnotaurs and not that i be a coward and laughing ) and for the old viewer some part may be too childish . like other disney film and dinosaur have some tender moment ( for those who like romance and there some of that and too ) and but the film it self be not too sugar coat and it surprisingly straight forward and serious . there be some comical line that make you chuckle and but without sacrifice the integrity of the film . the first act and which show aladar arrival at the lemur and be actually portray in a different and more detailed way than tarzan arrival at the ape and which be refresh to see . overall and this be not a perfect movie and but it have some great moment and so i like it .
