Editorial Review:
Dinosaur typifies why most serious gamers stay away from movie-to-video-game properties. More often than not, they don't play well or look anything like the films they are meant to re-create. While there are exceptions, Dinosaur is the rule.
As you have probably guessed from the Disney logo on the front of the packaging, Dinosaur is an action-adventure that is based on the Disney animated feature film of the same name. The plot and dialogue of Dinosaur is irritating, but not as much as the awkward control and the substandard graphics. The game puts you in control of three characters: Aladar, a large iguanodon who relies on his swift charge and tail slap; Zini, a lemur who can jump and run very fast; and Flia, a pteranodon who can fly and glide through levels and is also the master of a swoop attack. All of the prehistoric beasts' skills are designed to complement each other. As you make your way through the game, you must use their skills in tandem to traverse the game's various stages. The PlayStation controller's shoulder buttons allow you to switch between characters.
Sandbox Studios, the game-design firm that developed Dinosaur for Disney Interactive, has not done this license justice. The environments are large, but extremely bland and unattractive, further evidence of the game's poor graphics and overall rushed feel. --Todd Mowatt
Pros: - May be attractive for younger, less-experienced gamers
Cons: - Outdated graphics
- Dull gameplay

Rating:  - great game, great movie
When I first got this game, I really liked it. I LOVE dinosaurs, but there was only one thing I didn't like in this game: no Bruton! He is my favorite dinosaur! Don't ask me why. My favorite level in this game was level 7; Finding Neera. I don't know why, it's probably because t's nighttime (don't worry, you can still see the numerous raptors, about 3 or 4 Albertosaurus and the Spinosaurus that's attacking Neera). My least favorites are level 5 and 6, The Lake and Baby Sitting. If you're a little ... Read More

Rating:  - Don't Bother with this one
I agree. I would definetly rate this 0 stars if it existed. Disney should be so ashamed of this one. Terrible graphics and sound. I lost interest in the first 20 minutes. It's very boring (zzzzzz). No adult or kid would want to play this. In the very first level, you can't even move anywhere! You can't stay one character for long. If you pick Aladar, he can't reach high above the trees, if you pick Zini, he can't defeat the big meat- eating dinos, and if you pick some weird taradactlyle that wasn't ... Read More
Rating: - Do not buy this game!
I would give this 0 stars if the option existed. It is too hard for kids and no grown up would be interested. Don't bother.
