Livestonth I am only giving this movie a 1 for the great cast, though I can't imagine what any of them were thinking. This movie was horrible
Lollivan It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.
filippaberry84 I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.
Skyler Great movie. Not sure what people expected but I found it highly entertaining.
allyball-63124 Yeah, I can see why some hardcore LBT fans were disappointed by this first sequel. It seems a little light-hearted compared to the darker, more adult tone of the movie. This movie has a primarily kid message and a weak, padded story. The characters are also a little annoying, especially Cera. They all seem a little too bratty compared to the first movie. The songs were also really annoying! However, this movie does have some redeeming qualities. For example, the egg-stealers were pretty funny. They were dumb as heck but still pretty amusing. The animation was actually pretty good for a direct to DVD release and the same goes for the action scenes. In fact, when Chomper and his family came along, I became a little more invested. The family dynamic with Chomper and his parents is cute and Chomper is too in that regard. In conclusion, this movie isn't bad, just underwhelming.
Emma Jones So I decided to watch this again and of course, for the second LBT movie it is way below the standard and beauty of the first movie. It is a bit boring at first but seems to get better as the movie goes on. There is an interesting theme of 'sympathy for the devil' as well which is probably the best part of the movie along with themes of tolerance for an innocence that could so easily turn on you and make you into dinner. Of course, most children will not mind this film but watching as an adult (although I am a bit childish myself), it isn't as great as I used to think it was. I think this is partly because the plot is a bit all over the place and seems to be lacking in some areas. Of course, no sequel can ever be as good as or beat the original because Don Bluth had no further part to play in any of these sequels. Overall I would give this movie a 5.5/10.
Kristine I finally was able to watch all the Land Before Time sequels, as silly as they may be, I loved the original Land Before Time and I read a lot of these scary comments, I was still curious about them. So I was expecting nothing but trash when it came to the first sequel, granted I know that the singing doesn't really do much for the story and it's a bit stupid, but actually I thought this was a decent family movie that is very enjoyable. It's a great story for the kids, it's harmless and has great morals. The reason I think there's a lot of hate on the sequels is because of the love we all have for the first Land Before Time, but I think this is just a new way for the generation of today to enjoy the same stories we had.Littlefoot and his friends are living happily in their new home, under their families' watchful eyes. When the gang tries to get to the sheltering grass to play, but land in the quicksand surrounding it, the grownups come and rescue them, then lecture them that night. Cera then tells the others that they need to prove they are independent by running away for a while into the Mysterious Beyond, a location just outside the valley. Before they leave, they notice two egg nappers stealing an egg from Ducky's nest. They chase them into the Beyond, during which a landslide occurs. The egg rolls safely back to the nest, but the five are under the impression that it was destroyed in the landslide. Then, Ducky notices what looks like the egg, only slightly larger. The gang "return" this egg to the Valley, only to find out that the stolen egg and this one are not the same. They decide to hatch it, nonetheless, until the egg hatches, revealing a baby sharptooth. While the others run away, Littlefoot decides he's safe, and tries to raise the hatchling on leaves. When he hears the others calling for help, as the egg nappers Ozzy and Strut are attacking them, he runs to their aid, while "Chomper" follows him. Chomper's shadow frightens the villains away, after which Littlefoot exchanges introductions between Chomper and the others and they accept him. But how is the Valley going to accept a sharp tooth? You'll have to watch to find out.Yeah, the plot is predictable, the singing isn't necessary, and the story may be a little Barney-like, but don't go into these sequels expecting Citizen Kane. Just have fun with them. I know I'm a sap, but I just loved Chomper and Littlefoot's relationship, it was so adorable the way Chomper just wanted to hang onto Littlefoot and was like his shadow. I felt that this story had a great moral to the kids and personally as an adult I still find it very watchable. These movies are made more so for the kids, so give these films a break, The Land Before Time 2 is a good movie.6/10
Jackson Booth-Millard If the kids liked the first film, then they will like the straight to video sequel. Personally I found it corny in places, but it does have an interesting story. The dinosaurs have made it to The Great Valley and are living there with their parents, Littlefoot by the way is living with his grandparents. The Valley has now got two dinosaurs stealing eggs from nests, one egg belonging to a Sharp Tooth. This Sharp Tooth, Chomper, is found by Littlefoot and he is trying to make him a nice T-Rex to be a friend to the other friends. The Sharp Tooths obviously get in the Valley and, chase out the egg thieves and the good dinosaurs block their entry. Kids will like it, I'm not sure I'd want to see it again. Adequate!
