Although it has its amusing moments, in eneral the plot does not convince.
In truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.
The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one
It is an exhilarating, distressing, funny and profound film, with one of the more memorable film scores in years,
The fifth installment of The Land Before Time is a decent children's film with the right amount of life lessons and fun adventures decorated with three okay catchy songs. The plot can be a little thin, but there are enough good-natured and cute characters to make it likable to parents who like participating in their kids' entertainment. I enjoyed it okay. I must confess that I cracked some smiles when our beloved gang said some funny lines here and there. And come on, the twins in this movie are just so cute :)
Did this movie have a point? No. Is this movie memorable? No. Is this movie entertaining? Yes, yes it is. I personally found Littlefoot fanboying over the Lone Dinosaur funny and kind of relatable. I also found their bad luck kind of amusing and again really relatable and as always, I liked the action scenes. Everything else was just okay. The message, animation, and adventure are enjoyable but nothing that good. However, I actually really liked the songs. The Lone Dinosaur song is really catchy and just overall fun to sing, Bad Luck was just hilariously relatable and the last song is well sung but the lyrics could use some work. Overall, this movie is just okay. It's been overshadowed by every other movie so far since there's nothing really that memorable in it other than The Lone Dinosaur song.
I don't think it is the best LBT sequel, but it is nice to watch, and I do recommend it for kids. It is too short though so you don't feel the emotional attachment you get from watching the first film, the dialogue is mostly uninspiring(this is from a more adult perspective, but I am sure kids will overlook this) and the story is quite simplistic. However the animation is good, with nice colours and decent editing. The music is lovely, and the songs while not memorable are pleasant. The twin baby dinosaurs Dana and Dina are adorable, and the voice acting is solid. All in all, this is a decent sequel, definitely one of the more watchable sequels of the franchise. 6/10 Bethany Cox
I have enjoyed watching this film with my 5-year old daughter many times. The typical hokey references to evolution are overshadowed by a good story line, memorable scenes and pleasant characters. Doc (Kris Kristofferson), the Lone Dinosaur, is a real treat.
