| Washington PostPaul AttanasioMost of the budget of "Baby" seems to have gone into the creatures, who nevertheless don't look much better than Gumby. |
| eFilmCritic.comScott WeinbergSappy family stuff about a bland little dinosaur and his very boring keepers. |
| Los Angeles TimesSheila BensonBaby's faintly reptilian eyes are dead. And with them dies a lot of our belief. |
| Chicago Sun-TimesRoger EbertBaby turns out to be a real no-brainer. The movie even blows the one moment you'd assume couldn't fail -- the first sighting of a brontosaurus. Instead of a moment of quiet awe, the movie gives us the gee-whiz approach of a Godzilla remake. |
| Spirituality and PracticeFrederic and Mary Ann BrussatNot much to say about this hackneyed jungle movie. |
| Austin ChronicleMarie MahoneyEven if your children like dinosaurs, don't let them be exposed to the offensive, insensitive, intolerably anti-humanist and racist propagandizing that is draped around them in this film. No plot, no heart, no soul. |
| User ReviewAmanda HThis is a great dinosaur movie. When I was a kid, I thought the dinosaurs were real! I loved this movie! It's a great family movie to watch. |
| User ReviewNate AI haven't seen this in over 20 years, but I loved it as a kid. So five stars it is. And, come on, dinosaurs. DINOSAURS! |
| User ReviewMarco GEveryone with a heart should see this film. Well that narrows it down, huh ? LOL, just joking ... But serously, its a hidden gem. Its a very sad tale of a family of dinosaurs who are wanted by greedy scientist. A young couple are quickly pushed into the role of parents for the baby dino as they decide to rescue the baby's mother. Trust me, this film is very sad but very well made and if you decide to watch it you wont regret it at all. |
| User ReviewAl PAbsolutely amazing in every way. The visual effects, the acting, the screenplay, all come together to form one of the greatest cinematic epics of all time. Do not miss this one. |
