	Author	Review
United States	Michael Rechtshaffen The Hollywood Reporter	"First-rate CG effects do battle with third-rate dialogue in this 3D adventure based on acclaimed BBC series."	NEG
United Kingdom	Mark Adams Screendaily	"While the script may not always click (...) the computer animation is always immersive and impressive, with the 3D adding much to the atmosphere."	NEU
United States	Neil Genzlinger The New York Times	"The movie looks great, the writing is peppered with moments of wit, and there's even an educational component built in as dinosaur facts are displayed on the screen."	POS
United States	Claudia Puig USA Today	"The photo-realistic look is striking, but the dialogue is occasionally wince-inducing. Think a sub-par 'Flintstones' episode. (...) Rating: ★★ (out of four)"	NEG
United States	Peter Debruge Variety	"Collee piles on references to such distinctly human concepts as ninjas and ballet, while 21st-century expressions (...) and a forgettable selection of pop tunes feel instantly biodegradable."	NEG
