2.0 out of 5 stars Cute adventure for kids, kind of insulting to fans of the books, Jun 20 2011
By Taylor - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Dinotopia:Quest for the Ruby S (DVD)
Let's start out with the fact that, yes, it's a kids' movie and it's a good fit for kids. It has fun dinosaurs and what kid doesn't like fun dinosaurs? If you're babysitting, you can sit down with your kid and enjoy this harmless, silly romp about dinosaurs, friendship and adventure that children adore and dream about. I saw this myself when I sat down with my eight-year-old cousin to watch it, and she insisted it was a great and memorable movie, on par with or even better than Pan's Labyrinth, which she had seen me watching a little before. So I watched this movie with my little film critic cousin and watched her totally adore it, beginning to end.

This doesn't mean I have to pretend it's a good movie, though. It's full of idiocy, inaccuracy, and ridiculous over-simplification of the gorgeous and well-thought-out book series that it originated from.

There is literally nothing else defining about Dinotopia but its dinosaurs. Everything else about their culture, buildings and society are VERY human; there are no inventions, language or behaviors just for dinosaurs as there obviously should be, they being isolated...FOREVER as they have. The movie had some big-name voice actors whose talent was wasted on plain or stupid dialogue, especially Kathy Griffin. The main character Kex (what kind of a name is that? Sounds like a cereal!) loses his surprise/wonderment at the Dinotopia world at the snap of a finger. 26 sometimes talks in slang that Dinotopia can't possibly have heard of before. One little dinosaur, Spaz, is...really irritatingly stupid. He tells awful jokes, once sucked snot out of 26's nose (thinking he was gonna get milk?) and, seconds after being born, he was walkin' and talkin' like he's several years old already. And of course, no character from the original series is anywhere to be seen.

"Hey, it's a kids' movie, lighten up."

Yeah, yeah, that's the answer to everything, isn't it? -_-

4.0 out of 5 stars Grandson loved it., July 17 2010
By Linda Hepworth "Avid Mystery Reader" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Dinotopia:Quest for the Ruby S (DVD)
My three year old grandson loved the movie. He was not the least bit scared. Whereas my 2 1/2 year old granddaughter does not care for it at all.

Animated adventure, an orphan runs away, he's lost at sea and washes up on a hidden island, protected from the rest of the world by sun stones. On the island people and dinosuars co-exist. The villian is another outsider who tried to take over the island after finding a ruby sunstone, he was defeated and locked away for a hundred years only to be awoken by two bumbling dinosuars. This adventure the orphan and two new found friends defeat the bad guy once again.

I've watched it at least 6 times the last few days and am not tired of it yet.

4.0 out of 5 stars Dino-Cartoon, Jan 7 2009
By Dino Fan "Dino Fan" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Dinotopia:Quest for the Ruby S (DVD)
OK for young kids, I'd guess up to 5. After age 5 kind of
iffy whether they'd still be interested.
