not just a great documentary, but also impressive dinosaur stories, 23 June 2006
10/10
Author: FireRaider Bxxx from Romania

Everyone who enjoys combining action with science must see it.

Very good special effects make you feel part of the prehistoric world, and the narrator, Christian Slater, is a pleasant voice to reveal the Dino mysteries.

Some thing I noticed right ahead, was that it's not cliché. The main characters are species of dinosaurs you never heard before, like Pyroraptor Olympius, Daspletosaurus torosus, Aucasaurus garridoi, they are as alive as ever on screen, and each one has a story to tell.

They run themselves into trouble or are overwhelmed by the natural disasters and have to run for their lives. Some well known species like the infamous Velociraptor, the misunderstood Oviraptor (egg thief) or the swift Troodon are depicted in ways we wouldn't have imagined before.

According to recent finds, they had feathers and were more bird-like than we imagined. Could you imagine a Velociraptor or Oviraptor as a caring parent... well, yes they were!

Scott Sampson explains it all. And you could swear the creatures are real thanks to Meteor Studios.

It's definitely worth watching ;)
