The Great Valley Adventure The Land

Features include:

•MPAA Rating: G
•Format: DVD
•Runtime: 73 minutes

Young brontosaurus Littlefoot and his pals venture out of the Great Valley into the Mysterious Beyond and encounter a T-rex and a pair of omnivores who just want to be friendly. (Gulp.) The gang learns how hard it is to be a kid on one’s own in a scary place–what with landslides and ferocious “sharptooths.” This firstborn sequel to The Land Before Time largely holds up the visual quality of Don Bluth’s original, though the story is narrower and less interesting. Music by the Roches and James Horner. –Tom Keogh

6 yr old rates this the best
By saliero
We have all The Land Before Time videos, and I asked the 6 yearold critic which was the best. He said this one, without hesitation,and it is certainly the one that has been played most often. He particularly likes the songs in this one, and I think the concept of being scared (within the safety of the living room, with mum and dad nearby) is very tantalising.

Each of the movies has a “message” and while it can be a bit cloying for adult viewers, they do seem to strike a chord with the kids. In this one the kids are alone facing danger, and they “learn just how hard it is to be a grown-up – and how nice it is to be a kid! – in this captivating story of hope, love and trust.” (from box notes).

good for the younger viewers
By Carly
After the fourth edition of these “Land Before Time” videos was released, I started to wonder why they didn’t just make a TV show out of it. Many people will argue that the original is best, and I would have to agree with that too, but enjoying the other videos also depends a lot on age. I agree with another reviewer in that these videos really do work well for children; with the songs and everything, I think the videos from the 2nd one on would probably be almost more enjoyable for the kids. The first one is beautiful–a true classic in animated films–but the other ones are more fun for the kids. The first one speaks to all ages, but the others are very kid-friendly. Recommended for sure if you have children.

Awesome Movie!
By S1294
This is one of the greatest Land Before Time Movies in the series. My daughter is two and a half and she can’t get enough of this one! She wants to watch it over and over again, she just loves how it is about a little baby egg and wants the bad dinosaurs to give it back. Great movie, I recommend this to everyone!
