THE GOOD DINOSAUR (Theatrical Release USA 2015)

Ben Meyers’ rating: 4.3|5.0 Starsìììì

The Good Dinosaur—lovable, sweet, and exceptionally family friendly—goes straight to the heart from its opening scene to its final scene. While not as impactful as other Pixar Studio films, this movie’s strict reliance on the theme of strangers helping strangers is welcome and well-received. Good family share film. Great work for Director Peter Sohn
