Unfortunately, this LBT has a spoilt, usually positive Ducky who is now grumpy and a storyline that is good for teaching but not very good for a LBT film.

Luckily, the plot is all right and the songs are good, especially "Family" and the learning songs. The animation is quite good as well, sort of in between LBT 7's animation and LBT 9's animation.

The new characters are entertaining. Mr. Thicknose is a wise threehorn (they are all dinosaurs) who likes to teach Littlefoot and his friends. While he talks to them again, Ducky is angry at Spike and Littlefoot is worried that he is seeming to upset Mr. Thicknose. The film continues on as a pretty good learning adventure and an adventure good for an animated film.

The best character in this who is one of the main five is Petrie.

Ah well. Enjoy "Land Before Time VIII: The Big Freeze".

The Land Before Time VIII: The Big Freeze, the eight installment in the Land Before Time series. I can't believe how many more movies there are to this series, it's a bit crazy, I feel like I'm on a Lord of the Rings type journey. But still it has been a decent one, you know each time I go onto the home page of the new Land Before Time sequel, the rating is low and the reviews are all very bad, just saying how sick everyone is of this franchise. Personally though I've enjoyed it, each film as silly as it may be, has a very good message and I think is just a great family film. Something that both the kids and the adults can enjoy together. After all it may be cheesy, but look who this was made for, the kids. I like these stories, they're very cute and always teach something.

Littlefoot and his friends are being tutored by a dinosaur named Mr. Thicknose who claims that he's been there, done that, seen it all, heard it all, etc. When Littlefoot questions him, he gets angry and Grandpa tells Littlefoot that they all respect Mr. Thicknose and his "experiences". Ducky is also getting annoyed with Spike lately, she can't get any sleep because of him, but when Cera tells her to express herself, she takes it the wrong way and gets angry with Spike letting him clearly know on how angry she is with him. When the dinosaur families get trapped in a valley by an ice storm, one family of spike tail dinosaurs volunteers to leave since they consume more food than the others. Meanwhile, the young dinos and Mr. Thicknose, head out to bring back their friend Spike, who has left his friends to be with members of his own species. Spike also starts to miss Ducky, but they have bigger problems when the food is extremely scarce. But realizing that Mr. Thicknose may not exactly know all, Littlefoot and his friends are now facing this challenge head on facing the extreme cold weather.

The Land Before Time VIII: The Big Freeze I think is a film definitely worth watching. I loved watching Ducky and Spike's relationship being renewed, that they can get annoyed with each other but still end up loving each other more than ever in the end. I also thought it was kind of funny with the story between Littlefoot and Mr. Thicknose, sensing that Mr. Thicknose was somewhat jealous of Littlefoot's curiosity and questions. This is a good sequel to the series, yeah, I agree that there are a lot of these movies, but each one has been good for different reasons. So I would recommend watching this one, so far all the sequels have been good, so I don't know what to expect in the next sequel, but I still have good hopes since this has been a great series to get into.

5/10

While a long way from being the worst, this sequel isn't the best either. It does benefit from some nice colourful animation, a sweet story and a sterling vocal turn from Robert Guillaume(who also voiced Rafiki in "The Lion King"). Actually in general the whole voice cast was very well done. However, while sweet the songs aren't exactly memorable, some of the dialogue is a little on the corny side and the film is too short. I may be alone as well in thinking the singing was a tad weak, Guillaume has done much better singing before.

Overall, I do recommend it for kids, they will definitely love it. However depending on whether you loved the first film, I did, or how old you are, others may find it disappointing. It does do the right thing though, provides decent entertainment for its target audience. 5.5/10 Bethany Cox

Ah, I remember the good old days. 1988 it was, I was a little kid and had just been taken to see a great movie called Land Before Time. I really enjoyed it and wanted to see more of the cute talking dinos. Be careful what you wish for! Each sequel to the film has degenerated farther and farther from the original nice story into pure theatrical sludge. The characters have become increasingly more annoying, the plots are trite, the songs make you pray for the ice age and those are the series's GOOD points.

As for this latest cinematic suppository, I can't help but say, in all honesty, that I would rather be castrated with a rusty pizza cutter then sit through it again. Five minutes of Land Before Time VIII can turn your brain into cottage cheese. This is the worst case of sequelitus I have ever seen.

It's high time these dinosaurs became extinct!

Until now, I have watched every sequel to the beloved Land Before Time (1988). From the fifth installment on, I actually must confess that they have almost solidified on a decent level of quality.

The film is a little slow in the first approximately 15 minutes, but when the snow kicks in, the good stuff does too. The film has pretty backgrounds and good messages about identity and family.

Most of the songs are also serving the movie and the story well, and what more can you ask for from a direct-to-DVD film?

I can't be mad at this film. Yeah, 8th sequel in an everlasting line of them, I know. I like it and will not feel guilty if I in the future will be showing it to my kids.

I loved the Land Before Time (first one). I love Don Bluth movies in general. I would like to point out The first LBT was the ONLY one that Don had a hand in. You will notice that it is a new director every 3 or so movies after that. It is so sad that it has become the norm now to take something that was wonderful and heartfelt and turn it into a marketing scheme =(. I have only seen this sequel, and I don't plan on seeing any of the others, I prefer to leave my childhood memories of Littefoot, Petrie, Cera and the others intact. I miss animated movies that had imagination and an obvious amount of thought and effort put into them, most movies now a days are cranked out for the soul purpose of making money. So sad.

How this awful cartoon managed to get a an "above average" rating is beyond me. It is terrible in every respect: the "music" is insanely bad, the artwork isn't much better, and somehow the film manages to turn everything that's interesting about dinosaurs into boring klichés about friendship and the importance of not stripping old people of their dignity. Unimaginative, an insult to children's intelligence. My favorite moment is when the dinosaurs decide to have a little snowball fight after the freeze sets in...

Although the original film (10/10) can never be matched, this heartwarming sequel comes close. This time Ducky & Spike take centre stage as their "sibling" relationship is tested. They love each other but know that they are different. Spike faces a difficult decision when a herd of spiketails, including a cute infant, invite him to join them. The friends see snow for the first time and learn how it can be good and bad. The story has laughter, tears & adventure. The characters are as loveable as ever and the songs are not unpleasant. I am proud to own all 8 films and this is one of the best. (9/10) I look forward to future releases. Long live the Land Before Time!

The 'Land before time' series has its high points. Of course the 1988 progenitor is the best, with its earnestness and substance, but 1995's 'The time of Great Giving' again reached for meaningful themes and ideas, and 1998's 'The secret of Saurus Rock,' going the other way and leaning into its silliness, was genuinely clever and fun. Otherwise - well, it's not that the other direct-to-video sequels are bad, because they're not. They are consistent, however, and they are consistently somewhat so-so: enjoyable, but modestly so, with shortcomings as evident as their strengths, and writing and execution that are rather simplified and unsophisticated. These issues have been routinely reflected in the dialogue, characterizations, scene writing, plot, voice acting, songs, and to some degree even in the animation. Sitting for the eighth entry in the franchise, there was no reason to think that 'The Big Freeze' would be any different. Indeed, for better and for worse, this is part and parcel with its brethren, and its lasting value is a little soft.

The saga of Littlefoot and his friends continues, with mild humor adjoining mild adventure and mild drama, and life lessons will be imparted along the way. I think the animators refined their digital methods a bit following 'The stone of cold fire' as it shifted away from traditional hand-drawn art, and there's perhaps some more nuance in the visuals - including, unfailingly, beautiful, detailed backgrounds, and character designs and other active elements that more than not are pretty swell. Reliable as the voice cast has been in and of themselves, their performances are maybe more grounded, and not quite as wholly juvenile as those heard in prior sequels. Even as they're regularly ham-handed the songs are variable in their quality, with some a touch sharper than others. There's not much to say about John Loy's screenplay that hasn't been said previously, but suffice to say that the picture more closely recalls a Saturday morning cartoon, or at most a cartoon that might air in the afternoon as elementary schools let out, more than a full-length theatrical presentation.

What I will say is that 'The Big Freeze' boasts more admirable sincerity than most of its predecessors with the thoughts that it broaches, hitting upon some important notions for the intended audience of a tender age (and, let's face it, for too many so-called adults, too). Then, too, some of the humor is a tad more amusing than elsewhere. I honestly do like this, and it's fairly well-rounded. I think the key trouble this flick faces is that from top to bottom it lands all too gently, lacking the vitality to make a mark even at its best, or at the most tense moments. Through moods both happy, sad, and ostensibly urgent it's too even-keeled, and while as a result it's not as gauche as other examples, its strengths are also made to feel more shallow in the process. In the way that is true of other fare that is so light and passively appreciable, the sum total is still worth watching in one measure or another. Even among other 'Land before time' films, however, this is kind of middling, so unless you have a special impetus to watch, this is something to check out only on a passing whim.

There was a lot of potential and real care poured into the writing, but in this case Charles Grosvenor's direction molds the movie into a form that's sadly unexciting and dull. It's still decent enough to merit a view if you happen to come across it, but definitely don't go out of your way for 'The Big Freeze,' and temper your expectations.

Boy that Universal really knows how to milk (or should I say "Mine") a franchise to death, these sequels seem to get cheaper & cheaper every time, it's really sickning that one of Don Bluth's classic mytho's is getting buchered more & more with near low quality sequels like this, I wonder how Don feels about this?

I'm sure glad MGM didn't take The Secret Of Nimh to the same direction as Land Before Time (hey, one dog ugly sequel was bad enough), if there's ever a Land Before Time 9, I think they should try "Land Before Time IX, The Mushroom Cloud".

this movie is probably one of THE most amazing movies ever ... some of my friends laugh cause i still watch these movies to this day ... I've been watching them for 15 years and i never get sick of them. .i hope that they end up making at least 20 .. because i know that i will still be watching them . and to the person that insulted them before YOU SUCK ..

cause I'm sure almost everyone agrees how AWESOME all the Land Before Times are : ) me and my friends watch it all the time .. and were 15 and 16 years old. and we STILL love it

i think that everyone should watch this movie .. because land before time is RED HOT !!!!!!!! :D:D:D:D:D

The songs are adorable and there's a great story about being honest without being disrespectful. Super adorable. Loved it since as the day we brought it home on VHS and now my kids love it.

This film is the only film of the franchise that I was watching it as a kid. When I saw it again in a snowy day, it make me love it much more. I really love the story of this movie, I really love the cast of this movie, even and to the other land before time films since the 5th movie. The voice acting and to English and to Greek dub is perfection and realistic, not to mention that in my opinion the English dub in movies/series from Disney or dreamworks is far better than the English dub in anime movies/series, except the evangelion because in the evangelion English dub especially in the original dub is as realistic as the dub of the American animated films and series.

Ducky is one of my favorite characters of this franchise, she is so cute and adorable. In this film, Cera is better than in the other films, she's not spastic as usual. The songs are also effective, and the music is cool.

In my opinion, the best film of the franchise. 💖

I love this movie and all of the Land Before Time movies! It's been great to rewatch all these with my daughter! And she loves them just like I do. Plus my wife had never seen any till we got together. So it's been cool to introduce her to them too. I don't think there's one Land Before Time we don't like.
