I used to watch it all the time when I was little and I still love it. I'm glad that I own it on VHS because I can not find it no where else. It's comes no where near Jurassic Park, but yet it still has that magic in it. It's a simple pleasure and a great adventure. I recommend it for all dinosaur lovers!
P.S. Do you think that there should be a sequel? Or a remake? That would be cool!

I wouldn't call it a great movie, but it is certainly a good movie. For us 80's kids it has a lot of nostalgic value. My brother and sister and I used to watch it all the time as kids. Just listening to it now while doing some work, and enjoying every bit of it.
For you film score enthusiasts out there, and certainly anyone who is a fan of Jerry Goldsmith, this film is indeed lacking in a lot of areas, but the score is simply EXCELLENT! One of my favorites from Jerry Goldsmith. I've read it was among his personal favorites as far as his experience in scoring the film. If you enjoy film scores, give this one a view.
