 very pleased February 8, 2008

I purchased this dvd for my six year old nephew who is really into dinosaurs. It has easily become his favorite. He watches it every chance he gets and is even learning the names of each animal. He gets his pleasure from watching the movies, I get mine from watching him and discussing them with him. Money well spent.
Ultimate Dinosaur Collection -- Great Buy May 14, 2008

I am a big fan of this set. My son (7) loves dinosaurs and this has great, realistic portrayals with a "plot" that keeps him interested. All of my kids learn from these movies. I really like it because my son saved up and paid for it with his own allowance and so his opinion counts. Two thumbs up!
Great series December 7, 2007

This is just a wonderful collection of these films. The entire series is done in such a way so that you truly believe you are watching live animals in a documentary. Perfect blend of cgi and live footage.

My 6 year old son is crazy about dinosaurs. I noticed he didn't like the educational shows that are featured on PBS and similar channels. When he discovered the BBC series he was glued to the television. He loves sharing the stories with me during dinner. The special effects, narration, story line, and dinosaur action really captures his attention. This is an excellent video for dinosaur fans.
Great for the dino-obsessed 4-y-o! May 29, 2008

My 4-y-o son is completely obsessed with dinosaurs. I was concerned about the level of violence/gore in the program, but after watching one episode on cable with him and seeing that he was unaffected by it, I bought the series. Once we got past the "yes, dinosaurs ate one another" factor, I've been AMAZED by how quickly he's learning the real names (triceratops versus "three-horn" that he learned from THE LAND BEFORE TIME) and facts about the various prehistoric creatures. When he told me that "dimetrodon was the largest carnivore on Earth when he lived!" I just about fell over. He loves it. I'm delighted.
CHASED BY DINOSAURS is a "Crocodile Hunter" style integration of dinosaurs and the narrator running around the prehistoric landscape in a kind of high-tech LAND OF THE LOST. If anything, I'm a little bothered by the false impression that's making. But it's a lot of fun.
My only note of caution is that WALKING WITH MONSTERS is available as a separate DVD, and if you're used to seeing it as "Before the Dinosaurs" (the subtitle), it could be easy to do what I did and buy it separately, and end up with two copies. Both of which were immediately opened by an enthusiastic 4-y-o, so not returnable. Backup copies are good, though, for something this insanely popular at our house!
