If your wanting a movie that will inspire you and create new emotions....this is not the one. But it is good if you want to keep your small child occupied for a few hours. I didn't rent this for me to watch, but my 4 year old, and he liked it. I saw enough of it to know that the acting is bad and the jokes are lame, but I don't expect kids movies to be great works of art. I expected it to keep my little boy's attention long enough so I could watch the movie I wanted to see, and that it did. And he wanted to see it over again (5 day rental), so I can't trash it too bad.
I really liked this movie if others don't like it, well they are not a kid at heart, I thought of the dinosaurs was cute , the action great, the comedy funny, the actors great, the story line was great too and just about every thing about it, and it was a very good movie for kids and for the adult who are a kid at heart too, but I think it is ashame that they didn't put it on DVD. They put the 2 movies that came after this one on DVD, so why not this one too? I haven't seen the other two movies yet but i think this one really should have been put on DVD too like the other 2.
I liked it too, and I hope that somebody else does just as much as I did too.

The life-like miniature dinosaurs are a joy to behold but the humans don't do this film any favours. It's obviously aimed at young children and is therefore awful. The dialogue and acting stinks. So the best way to watch is press the fast forward button whenever the cute dinosaurs aren't in shot. They deserve to be in a much better film. On their account I rate this 5 instead of 1.
People can say that this was a bad movie, but I completely disagree. I thought that it was cute, although the dinosaur effects could've been better (ever see Jurassic Park?). Well, they wanted the movie to be cute and seem harmless, so they couldn't give the same vicious effects as "Jurassic Park". This movie is great, if you like animal movies (with dogs or cats) you might not like this movie, but if you like family-oriented comedies and dinosaurs, you might like it. I liked it, and I hope that somebody else does too.
Every character in this film is detestable. The dialogue is just constant bickering. When the family is arguing in the car I just wanted them to all start pushing each other out into the road. No one is even remotely likable. Every characters IQ is far below 70. You keep asking yourself, "Why can't the dinosaurs grow full size and just eat all these people???"
With that said, there is one redeemable quality to this movie. If you like to have a laugh at bad movies (Mystery Science Theater 3000, Rifftrax, etc..) then this could be a good option. If you have a kid obsessed with dinosaurs I guess they might find it interesting, although doubtful.
This film doesn't warrant the character limit required for this review and so to pad it out I will touch upon the top three memorable scenes in this movie. Spoiler alert.. there aren't any.
