These movies are almost always overkill on evolution BUT Nigel's enthusiasm for "critters" and the pure joy to learn about them is great! He does downplay the violence a bit although there is alot of excitement (as he is chased by a carnivore following his jeep or the ocean predators usually consider him "lunch") We rememind ourselves these "monsters" are only robots after all! The thing I love about Nigel is the fact that he goes out of the way to make it easy to understand the sheer size and what it might have been like to live in those times for example, Nigel flies in an ultra-light next to a pterydactyl flock to give one the sense of size then comes upon the Quetzalcoatlus northropi. As a homeschooling mom, I am always looking for ways to connect my kids more deeply to their subjects and I could see this film accomplishes just that.Read full review
Chased by Dinosaurs is a FASCINATING MOVIE. Nigel Marvin as always does an INCREDIBLE JOB acting like he is in trouble. Run Marvin Run, 🤣 I LOVE BBC MOVIES. This one is FANTASTIC

Nigel Marvin has done it! In his first series of 'travel back in time to see dinosaurs first hand' adventures, "Chased by Dinosaurs" is an interesting and clever portrayal of how dinosaurs might have lived and includes a look at some lesser recognized species. Our family are big fans of his more modern series broadcast on Animal Planet, "Prehistoric Park" and we cannot wait to have those episodes on DVD as well. Imagine the late Steve Irwin traveling back in time to mingle with T-Rex et al, and you will have an idea of what "Chased By Dinosaurs" is all about. Highly recommended.
Very Nostalgic for any fan of the Walking with Dinosaurs series and other BBC programs. Includes all Three Episodes : The Giant Claw, Land of Giants, and Chased by Sea Monsters. Also includes a Making of ,for any film student, and Dinosaur fact files ,for young Paleontologist

Join Nigel Marven on yet another wild adventure as he travels back in time to learn about dinosaurs and other monstrous prehistoric creatures! Very engaging and entertaining, not entirely accurate anymore, but holds up very well for its age.
