The Land Before Time

The wonderful thing about this film is that it honestly is suitable for the entire family. This is common to hear about flims, animated ones in particular, but honestly, this movie is great. On the kid-level, you have dinosaurs, action, and well-intending heroes that rely on teamwork and overcoming personal differences. It contains quality messages. On a slightly more mature level, you have the artfully rendered scenes--the beautiful animation, the talented voice-actors, and the coming-of-age pitfalls of loss, of experience--of growing out of that inborn selfishness that everyone starts out with and learning to rely on others, and having the capacity to be relied on in return. And, ultimately, that if you work hard and you work together, you can accomplish your goal.

The Land Before Time (DVD, 2003, Anniversary Edition)

A great, well-told story. Timeless, as kids of any generation never tire of dinosaurs.

Technical presentation of the film very disappointing. Film only presented in "Full Screen" and does not appear to have been restored in any way for the release on DVD format. There were no "Extras" of any value for the older fans of this film.

I purchased this release to replace our worn-out VHS copy of the film; the DVD format is not much better. Our kids do enjoy watching, but I hope to see it as originally intended in "Widescreen", restored for Blu Ray format. The success of this movie franchise warrants revisiting the original movie for another release.

The Land Before Time

Great movie for little ones who are particularly interested in Dinosaurs. A heart warming storyline, using of all things dinosaurs to portray love of family, warm parenting practices, friendship, and resiliency, just to name a few. My two year old son appreciates watching the birth of dinosaur life, the bonds between dinosaur parents and offspring, as well as the realistic portrayal of interactions between the Carnosaurs and Sauropods.

ATTENTION DINOSAURS LOVERS THIS IS REALLY CUTE

I BOUGHT THIS DVD BECAUSE MY LITTLE COUSIN LOVES DINOSAURS. THEY ARE REALLY CUTE AND FUNNY. I BOUGHT MY COUSIN LAND BEFORE TIME 1-10. HE LOVED THEM. SO IF YOUR CHILD OR SOMEONE YOU KNOW LIKES OR LOVES DINOSAURS THESE DVD'S WOULD BE THE GREAT GIFT.

One of the best childrens movie EVER!

I grew up with this movie, and now that I am a little older I had been wanting to replace the old VHS with a DVD so that I can always keep those memories. This is the type of childs movie that lost popularity after a while, but with the cast it has and the help from Steven Speilberg, I can't really understand why. A classic to me and my generation, when cartoons were actually plot driven and "animation" was an art, done by hand. Those days will be missed. This DVD was worth every penny.
