After the very mediocre wisdom of friends I was a bit worried, but this new director brought that Land Before time magic back for me. This isn't a perfect movie but it is leagues above the 13th movie simply by not having new annoying characters shoved down on our throats and hogging screen time for the main characters.
First I'll talk about the positives. This movie gives a really good reason to focus on Littlefoot and reminded us how brave he was. The stress of possibly losing another parent really get's to him and we see that done very well. The other four all have a good role in the movie and are'nt just shoved to the side like in the thirteenth movie. Ducky is without a doubt the heart of the group and it's shown beautifully hear when she's the one who more or less convinces Cera the reason to leave Littlefoot was selfish.
As fun is this movie was there are a few issues that I do have to address here. Firstly the movie moves a bit too fast in certain places, it's not an annoyance but it is something I noticed. Also while Chomper and Ruby do eventually leave the valley to help search for the others, I would have preferred they had a bigger role. Lastly the voice for threehorn sounds off, maybe it's just cause I'm so used to the original voice but this new guy does not sound like he's giving his all in his performance.
Aside from the negatives I mention I do think this is a great return to the Land Before time series and hope we get to see more movies.
