A Disgrace!
This movie was a terrible choice for Mommy’s little darlings, Jennifer (16), Emily (13), Jake (8) and Max (5). Who’s tender little hearts must be protected from the cruel realties of today’s wicked wicked world. This movie was Max’s choice because Land Before Time is his favorite series but these dinosaurs are frightening monsters who have no place in a children’s movie. Max is now seeing a therapist. Also I don’t want Jake emulating that Sean’s cheeky attitude towards his uncle who just wants the best for him. Jake’s already started talking back to me when I ask him to go to school! The way that boy hits on that woman is disgraceful. It will give my daughters bad ideas. They might even think about boys now! And maybe even have boyfriends without my knowledge! And that woman is a bad influence in her tiny outfit reveling her ankles and her midriff encouraging my daughters to dress indecently. All in all this movie is disgustingly inappropriate for children.

The movie itself was really good in my opinion. Absolutely unbelievable and wonderfully strange. I love Brendan Fraser as an actor, and he portrayed quite a good role mode in this movie for young kids. There are a few scenes that kept me on the edge of my seat but might scare litttle kids, such as the one's where dinosaurs were involved, but I can truly say I enjoyed watching the movie.

Great family night movie!
My son age 9 really enjoyed this movie. It has a lot of action and suspense. I also like the girl in the movie as she is no damsel in distress.

Watch it over and over and it never gets old! For entire family!
This is one of my son's FAVORITE movies!! It is action packed, and easy to tell this is NOT a "real life" story (I find sometimes movie ideas, places, etc. have to be reminded that it is not real life). This is a definite go to movie that everyone in the family can agree to watch and enjoy!

 
Good addition and visualization for Verne's novel
It's definitely not a Verne's story, but it's all about Verne and his story. It encourages to read the novel. It's scary sometimes, but very impressive with all that picturesque views and almost alive creatures. It must be even more impressive in 3D. It does not have anything I could feel embarrassed about in my kids' presence. Which is, unfortunately, rare in movies nowadays. It does have good role models, although I can't say all characters' actions are good. So... Some fun+some adventures+some scary creatures=great family time!

Really Funny and Educational
This was really good, and VERY pretty. We watched it in science because we were learning about all that stuff (though quoted by teacher: its unlikely thats all down there) it was pretty funny. The two boys were once questioning who had 'dibs' on Hannah (mountain guide) because she was attractive, she heard them arguing and kept shouting "Guys!" until they stopped, and then she said "No one gets dibs on the mountain guide" -she's also from Iceland. It was all really funny though they nearly died many times, just trying to survive and get out. It was all really amazing. It was sad when Shaun learned his dad died because of the extreme heat down there (body announced, not shown) it was pretty sad, and I got goosebumps during parts of the movie. The scary things are the active situations they get caught in, deadly fish, and a T-Rex, otherwise I think your kids could watch it :)

This isn't one of the best movies, but it's a good family movie that must be seen in 3D. I enjoyed it, but it's not good enough to buy on DVD, in my opinion.
