While "Dinosaur" has taken a respectable sum at the US box office, this computer animated adventure has not managed to eclipse the performance of Disney鈥檚 recent greatest hits, nor surpass the hugely entertaining Pixar-produced computer animated movies in terms of style and quality.
And that in the end may be the more crucial fact, for when Pixar and Disney part company and face each other in head-to-head competition, Disney will need to prove that they are as capable of delivering innovative family entertainment as their small scale San Francisco-based affiliate, home to the "Toy Story" movies and "A Bug鈥檚 Life".
Disney's remarkable achievement is in catching up so much technical ground in four short years, establishing a computer animation studio and producing such a visually splendid movie. The problem really lies in the story, which some may find to be Disney-style in the worst of senses. Aladar is a dinosaur who has been brought up away from his kind, by a kindly colony of lemurs (echoes of "Tarzan"?).
When a deadly meteor shower destroys their home they are forced to wander further afield and look for somewhere new to live. Along the way they discover other dinosaurs who need their help as well as some who feel they might all make a nice meal. While the film maintains a strong moral centre and never attempts to replicate the savage reality of such a situation, it still might be a little too scary for young audiences. Undeniably the film has had some of its thunder stolen by the 主播大秀 series "", and the decision to dramatise this tale and give the creatures voices may be seen as a grave mistake.
In the end you have to either go with it, accept the film for what it is - a flawed tale lit by some fantastic visuals - or skip it altogether. In the cut-throat world of animated moviemaking, there is no middle ground.
