 Nothing more than CGI effects August 7, 2008

This mockumentary (that's right, this is not a documentary) is nothing more than a worse and longer version of the CGI effects in Jurasic Park - without the the adventure and action of the movie.
With zero educational value, this is just a cheap freak show.
A Very Good Program Overall August 2, 2008

"Walking With Dinosaurs" is a very well done account of the prehistoric beasts which have seared themselves into the American (and I assume the world's) cultural conscience. The computer animation is generally very good and the stories unfold like a well told nature documentary. Areas covered go from the rise of dinosaurs to their final years in the late Cretacious (spelling?). Allosaurs and T-rex are amongst those shown. Some other creatures range from small mammals to the massive marine predator Liploradon (spelling?) to giant amphibians in Antartica. There is of course some gore involving predation so younger children may not want to watch it. Anyway, on the whole, a very interesting documentary.
Well Done Series July 14, 2008
If you have children with an interest (or potential interest) in dinosaurs, buy this DVD set now!
I bought this DVD set several years ago as an afterthought and promptly forgot to take it out of the shrink wrap. Two months ago I ran across it and decided that my children might be interested in watching it. It quickly became their favorite DVD and now our house is full of dinosaurs. On any given day, the plant eating dinosaurs are eating the leaves of the bushes and trees around our house. The meat eaters are in combat with the plant eaters. All of the dinosaurs are watching after their babies.
In addition to my children, both my wife and myself found the series to be fascinating. The only drawback to the series for younger viewers is the violence. The series did tone it down to the bare minimum.
In conclusion, I high recommend this DVD series to any dinosaur fan (or potential fan). If you are a parent and would like to block all violence from your child, this series is probably a little too violent. In that case perhaps a book like "Dinosaur Bones" by Bob Banner might be a better choice (my children love watching the scholastic video version of that book).
Walking with Dinosaurs June 11, 2008
Walking with Dinosaurs is a fast paced and never feel like you're going to fall assleep because you're bored series! It follows at least 4 different dinosaurus raning from the tiny cute little Liannaosaura { Spelling? } to the swift frightening Utah Raptor to even the gigantic Tyrannosarus. I bought this when I was 8 and I 15 and I still love it! There is no crappy animation, you really feel like your walking with the dinosaurs, as the title suggests. I would highly recommend this series to any fan of dinosaurs or a fan of entertainment. 5 out of 5 stars!
