Littlefoot and the gang meet a shy newcomer, Ali, but the pleasantries stop there. There's a dire environmental theme to this third sequel in the series, in which the world's weather changes beyond the Great Valley, and what had been dry land is now a "land of mists." The shift brings new creatures who push out older inhabitants, and Littlefoot sees these radical changes for himself when he has to venture into the area to find a medicinal flower for his sick grandfather. While the animation is slow and contained the way direct-to-video cartoon releases often are, the story is sound and the now-familiar characters are memorable. --Tom Keogh

A Great Succes! ! ! !.......2006-02-19

I really like this movie because of the great lesson it teaches, and it is hillarious!! It starts when a herd of "Longnecks" come to the Great Valley to tell of some news of some strange weather changes in different places not far from the Great Valley. The wandering Longnecks call it the,"The Land of Mists." Everybody in the Great Valley is not too upset, I mean, why would there be any reason for them to go to a place like that? Right? WRONG! Littlefoot's Grandpa suddenly becomes ill, and his one and only hope is to eat the petals of a golden flower that grows only in, "The Land of Mists!" So Littlefoot, Ducky,Cera,Petrie,Spike and a new comer Ali journey to "The Mists" to find the petals of the Golden Night flower. But, they are not alone as they are looking for the flower, for deep in the shadows, lurks two pesky villains, looking for something to eat....... So, if you are wondering what's going to happen, get the movie!!

spike talks!!!!!!!! for the first time but not the last.......2005-09-30

i love this move my favorite thing about this move is ally i cant wate to see hear in a new move soon i hope

The villains were the best!.......2005-07-09

It was cute, and Petrie and Ducky kick butt in this one. The villans were funny when the sang their song "Not Me" It was so funny. I don't call it the best one though. I wish that they didn't have Cera pick on Petrie so much. In fact she picks on him the most. Tell her off Petrie! That's my only complaint.

An underrated gem........2005-06-26

This underrated sequel is obviously the best of the movies in the series. The trouble with this movie is that with all the "I HATE THIS MOVIE" hubbub, and the "I LOVE THE SIXTH MOVIE" hubbub, you'd think that this movie was a crime. The Land Before Time 6 was a failure because it tried to make the characters( especially Ducky and Littlefoot )more mature, and failed miserably. But, in this underrated classic, none of the characters are out of character, like in the 6th movie. Let me give you a summary about this movie. Okay, here goes nothin'...

Littlefoot, Cera, and the gang play some fun games. In the middle of playing "Hide and Seek", Littlefoot meets another young apatosaurus named Ali, who he befriends right away. When he and Ali come back, Ducky notices that there are "two Littlefoots". Ali is shy, so she and Littlefoot walk away. Cera and the others laugh and mock Ali. Then, one night, Grandpa feels very ill, and collapses. The Old One, oldest and wisest of the longnecks, says that the cure for his disease is found in The Land Of Mists( Ali's folks were forced out of their original homes ). Littlefoot and Ali decide to venture off to the Mists to help Grandpa. Next morning, Littlefoot's friends can't find him anywhere. Where did he go? They don't know, until they find out that he and Ali have ventured off to The Land Of Mists. They decide to go there and find Littlefoot. But two sinister predators, Ichy and Dil, are on the prowl...

An amazing piece of work. This movie marks the first( and hopefully not last )appearance of Ali the apatosaurus, Tickles the megazostrodon, Ichy the avimimus, and Dil the deinosuchus. It also has beautiful songs( "Grandma's Lullaby" and "It Takes All Sorts" are two tear-jerkers of songs )and a hilarious, yet somewhat inappropriate song( "Who Needs You?" is good, but at one point, one of them actually says,"I need you like a kick in the butt!" Is this language really necessary? ). The movie has beautiful animation, beautiful songs, a beautiful story, and beautiful characters. Go out and buy it today. It's worth it.

P.S., Spike says his first word in this movie! Want to know what it is? HINT: It's the name of the character who experiences a near-death scene.

P.P.S., Ozzy and Strut, the two struthiomimuses from the second movie, make a brief cameo! They are found in The Land Of Mists for a second. Look closely!

WHAT!?!?!?.......2005-06-19

WHAT IN THE NAME OF GOD IS THIS?!?! This is definately not a Land Before Time movie! We have two incredibly dumb-as-a-doorknob and very idiotic villians with really boring names. We have an incredily dumb plot where "What's his face's grandfather" is ill. I mean, COME ON!! Give the audience a better plot like a race against time or something! But introducing a female dinosaur amazingly similair to that dumb dino-brain is just plain boring. Then that brainless oaf Spike actually says one word for once: Ducky. Couldn't he have said something like "Wow! I can finally talk?" But when we finally think he is going to say something after he discovers he can talk, what does he do? He just inhales and eats a big pile of cowpie. If you have a child who likes LBT, save him the misery and the lousy amount of money for something else.
