- Critics' reviews
-
-
"From its opening evolution sequence of squiggly things in the water through its references to the great circle of life [it] embraces a larger perspective than merely that of the adventure story. It's an affecting work"
-
"The Land Before Time isn't heavily plotted (...) Luckily, it isn't very long either. At a just-right length of 73 minutes, it ought to win audiences' hearts without wearing out their patience"
-
"It's the kind of movie that parents and children ought to see together, then talk about afterward, though the lessons are ones that grown-ups need to master, as well."
