"The Land Before Time VII : The Stone of Cold Fire"







We are dead center of the Land Before Time movies. Now I would like to take a moment and remember what we have been through:
  • Good
  • Bad
  • Meh
  • Awful
  • Bad
  • Awful
Enough said!

Background
There is basically no behind the scenes facts for this movie. I guess the only way to find the behind the scenes facts is to break into the Universal offices and rummage through their filing cabinet. But this movie is directed by Charles Grosvenor (again)-- Moving on...


Plot
This movie is roughly about (spoiler alert!) ALIENS (I wish I was joking)! And then something about Petrie's uncle Pterno being, well let's just say, evil.



Opinion

Okay- Ironically enough, the animation looks surprisingly better. With that said, we have some terrible CGI in this. The voice acting is pretty bad with the exception of Jim Cummings (doing the voice of one of Pterno's henchman). If you don't know who he is, he has voiced Darkwing Duck, Winnie the Pooh and Tigger, and many more (I will put a link to his IMDB page). Petrie is an idiot in this movie because every time his Uncle Pterno does something bad he tries to defend him. Even when Uncle Pterno admits his guilt, Petrie still sticks up for him.

The opening narration is done by Petrie. Really guys? You didn't have enough money to hire an actual narrator? At least with the last movie they had Grandpa Longneck do it, and although I didn't really care for that, it was better than having Petrie do it. I hope with the next movie they have an actual narrator do it. The songs are terrible- I have been to chorus rehearsals that have sounded better than that! With the exception of one song, which is Pterno's song, which is a pretty good villain song (but I do think it would be better suited for Gaston in Beauty and the Beast). As for aliens in this movie, really guys? You were getting this desperate that you had to put in aliens? What's next, Zombies?

Granted, this is not as bad as the last one, but it is still pretty bad. So I am giving it a one out of five star rating. This movie is bad- don't buy for your kids or for yourself!
