7/10
Despite it's episodic plot, this surpasses "Time of the Great Giving" as the best of the series
6 June 2012
This film may not have the exact same charm and originality from the first Land Before Time, but all-in-all, this is an even better sequel than the previous films and even surpasses "The Time of the Great Giving" as the best of the series.

Sure, the story's episodic, although the lesson about responsibility was very nice to educate the young, and the dialog may felt clunky at times, but there are some redeeming qualities that make this worth watching. The animation is very decent and the backgrounds are really nice. The songs, although not memorable, are very pleasant to listen to especially the song "Lone Dinosaur" and "Bad Luck". The reused music from the original is great and the pacing moves along very briskly.

The characters are still very decent as is Cera's baby twins Dana and Dinah and boy were they so adorable you just want to pinch those cheeks of theirs. The strongest aspect is the voice acting with Kris Kristofferson's greatest cameo as Doc, the lone dinosaur.

Overall, not excellent, but still a very watchable sequel to the series. Thumbs up!
