Another fine entry from Dorling Kindersley s Eyewitness series. As with their books and computer software the video clearly presents and dynamically illustrates numerous facts about those beasts from 65 million years ago. Martin Sheen narrates this program that explores what paleontologists have uncovered in the last 200 years (an important find is made every seven weeks on average). Typical fact: Did you know that all the information on Tyrannous rex is attributed to only a dozen skeletal finds? The varieties of illustrations are truly remarkable: computer graphics animations Claymation even wonderful low-tech models. There s so much here that multiple viewings are necessary (and certainly to be requested by the child). It s keen stuff that adults should find as much fun to watch as the kids. Movie Genre: Children s Educational Running Time: 35 minutes Release Date: 01 Jan 1994
