Dinosaur

Overview

Walt Disney Pictures redefined computer animation with this technically accomplished fantasy of prehistoric life, combining live-action backgrounds with computer-generated animals. After a pterodactyl snatches a dinosaur's egg and accidentally drops it while flying away, the egg is rescued by a family of lemurs, who keep it warm until it hatches. They raise the baby dinosaur, named Aladar, as one of their own, and as he grows to adulthood, Aladar protects the primates that he has come to regard as his family. ...

More About This Product

Overview

Walt Disney Pictures redefined computer animation with this technically accomplished fantasy of prehistoric life, combining live-action backgrounds with computer-generated animals. After a pterodactyl snatches a dinosaur's egg and accidentally drops it while flying away, the egg is rescued by a family of lemurs, who keep it warm until it hatches. They raise the baby dinosaur, named Aladar, as one of their own, and as he grows to adulthood, Aladar protects the primates that he has come to regard as his family. When a giant meteor appears in the sky, packs of dinosaurs have no idea what to make of the strange fiery light, but Aladar and the lemurs are convinced that they must escape to a safer place before the huge flaming stone destroys their home, leading Aladar to encounter his own kind for the first time. D.B. Sweeney provides the voice of Aladar; other actors in the voice cast include Joan Plowright, Julianna Margulies, Alfre Woodard, and Ossie Davis.

Editorial Reviews

Barnes & Noble - Donald Liebenson
A fittingly oversized box-office hit from 2000, Dinosaur is the computer-animated tale of an orphaned dinosaur, adopted by lemurs, who eventually joins a migrating dino herd in search of nesting grounds. As veteran Disney fans will recognize, this is not a giddy ride like the Robin Williams-fueled Aladdin. Rather, the film is more of a Homeward Bound-styled odyssey, with a voice cast including D. B. Sweeney and Julianna Marguilies that plays it straight. What truly widens eyes here, though, are the undeniably awesome computer-generated images, depicting dinosaurs romping and stomping in photo-realistic backgrounds. There are two DVD editions of this artistic milestone. The single-disc edition contains four segments that chronicle the painstaking production process, as well as two games, a "Dinopedia" of dinosaur facts, and DVD-ROM links to the Web. The Collector's Edition boasts two discs. The first includes audio commentaries by the directors and effects supervisors as well as other members of the creative team. Some of the tidbits here are especially fun, such as the revelation that Zini, the misfit lemur, was inspired in part by the Michael Richards Seinfeld character, Kramer. There are abandoned and deleted sequences, hidden "Easter Eggs," an isolated sound-effects-only track and a treasure trove of supplemental features -- nearly three hours worth -- that chart the film's evolution in sketches and animation tests. Young Dino-maniacs will eat this up.
All Movie Guide - Karl Williams
A landmark achievement in computer animation, Dinosaur (2000) is one of the most expensive films ever made by Disney and a visual tour de force, although it suffers from a by-the-numbers plot line reminiscent of a Screenwriting 101 class. After a powerful opening sequence featuring the dizzying flight of a pterodactyl and a meteor shower probably too intense for the film's intended audience of young children, Dinosaur lumbers into familiar territory with a programmed story in which every beat is telegraphed far in advance. Mindless villains that don't exactly ramp up the tension and less than inspired vocal performances from leads Julianna Margulies and D.B. Sweeney, neither of whom has a particularly memorable or unique voice, add little to the proceedings. Regardless of the film's script problems, however, Dinosaur is a feast for the eyes; it represents, along with its equally successful box office competitor Chicken Run (2000), a year of major advances in the overall quality of film animation.

    Hmmm

    I believe that some viewers OVERANALYZED this highly entertaining but obviously FOR CHILDREN film...I doubt it was intended to be 100% scientifically accurate...much like the OTHER Disney movies...or maybe that's just me.

    My son went crazy for this movie

    This is a great introduction for boys and girls who love dinosaurs. The animation is so lifelike and the story is truly touching. Even adults will love this movie. When we first rented it my son watched it four times in one week!

    Stunning!

    When a meteor shower falls over the home of the dinosaurs, they are forced to travel a long way to the nesting grounds -- without food, water, or shelter, and under the ruling of Chrone, a ruthless leader who believes that only those who can keep up will make it. But then things go too far, and then Alidar comes to the rescue. With steller animation, live backgrounds, and a great plot, Dinosaur will be a hit forever. It truely is a stunning classic.

    Wrong facts bring down the Movie

    I really wanted to enjoy DISNEY's DINOSAUR, but it was too hard knowing that they were promoting wrong facts. Don't get me wrong, the story was exceptional and the graphics were good (JURASSIC PARK's were better.) but the movie is just - bad. For one thing, there were no lemurs 65 million years ago! They did not evolve for another million years or so. And dinosaurs are not cold-blooded as the lemurs promoted. They are warm-blooded. The reason is this, lizards, for example, are cold-blooded and have to crawl on the ground to generate the heat from the ground. Yet dinosaurs tood upon their hind legs, rising their stomachs from the ground. Since then that they would not be able to generate heat from the ground, and they had to get it from the sun, like a mammal or bird. And the meteor explosion was a great effect, but the dinosaurs were nearly allilahated. The remains evolved into birds. Back to the warm/cold blooded thing. Raptors were a main dinosaur that stood on their hind legs. Yet the movie gave them two different sets of eyelids, which was just wrong! They couldn't have two sets, once again, having Disney promoting they were lizards instead of birds. Next, nearly half of the dinosaurs were not around when the setting took place in the Cretaceous. The iguanadon didn't exist as well as the carnotaur. The brachiosaur did not belong as well. So now we go to the carnotaur, about the only dinosaur that DISNEY had gotten right, except for the time period. Yet could there have been a bigger villian? The carniivore was about as big as the iguanadons. They should have used a T-Rex, making the struggle more difficult and more entertaining for us the viewers. Now this is the last probelem that I'm going to write down in this review: The dinosaurs TALKED! Dear God what was up with that? They were looking like cartoons and they talked! It was just wrong. Everything about the movie was wrong. A sad dissapointment.
