The greatest movie ever!

There are moments in this movie where the great movie it could've been peek out... They're fleeting, here, but they're worth savoring, and they happen often enough to make it worth your while.

One of the film's great tricks is that, for a time, you think it will go down a rabbit hole of unrealistic glorification.

Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable

Chased by dinosaurs is a two part series ,in which as I understood the creators of Walking with Dinosaurs decided to make in order to focus in some dinosaur species, who did not had scene time in the Original series. Personally I think this was a great idea and even greater was to have as presenter Nigel Marven ,who with his energy and love of his work was the ideal person for the job. My only complain is the fact that the series ended so quickly, I mean I like they did not made it in to a cash cow ,but with so many weird species in the archosaurs family, I feel a bit cheated. Nevertheless this safari-style like the Walking with Dinosaurs was perfect and works to the show advantage the fact that is more of a focus on a specific dinosaurs rather than a tour of their kingdom though time. In the end, I loved it and recommend it for you ,Happy Dino-hours.

After three ground-breaking programmes that utterly redefined television documentary making, along came this mess of a show. Clearly the objective was to build upon the populist daring of the likes of the late Steve Irwin. Only one problem though: Irwin had charisma, this guy has none. And I mean none. Even the mosquitoes steal some scenes.But, I hear you saying, haven't the dinosaurs got even better? Sadly no. If anything they're actually reduced to a walk on role in long shot or "chasing" the host. I estimate 70% of screen time has Nigel mumbling something either uninteresting or unfunny or warning us about what could happen when the dinosaurs do turn up. Trying to "scare" us in other words. He doesn't need to try. This show IS scary, but for the wrong reasons. It's contrived and boring and an embarrassment to all involved. Don't even bother trying YOUTUBE. Save your money and download limit.

SPOILERSTim Haines and Jasper James, creators of Walking with Dinosaurs and Walking with Beasts team up yet again to deliver more prehistoric action. Up until now, all "Walking with" programmes were shot with no people except the narrator. But now a there's a presenter in there interacting with and reacting to the dinosaurs. In these three adventures, animal-enthusiast Nigel Marven travels back to several different points in prehistory. In "The Giant Claw" Nigel visits Late Cretacous Mongolia to find a therizinosaurus, a dinosaur with a claw over two-feet long! In "Land of Giants", he visits South America in the Early Cretacous to watch the biggest meat-eating dinosaur bring down the biggest plant-eating dinosaur! And in the "Sea Monsters" trilogy, Nigel visits seven prehistoric seas, each one deadlier than the last. Along the way he has a lot of memorable - and terrifying! - experiences: running through a nesting-site, waving a red flag like a matador; flying with a flock of pteranodons or riding on the back of a giant archelon turtle. He also meets a collection of nasty and bizarre creatures such as scorpions the size of dogs, dinosaurs with feathers, giganotosaurs ( predatory dinosaurs larger than T-rex ) and megalodon a shark that makes the modern great-white look like a goldfish! The creators put a lot of hard work into this, but the person who worked the hardest was Nigel. He needed to have us believe that he was actually there among dinosaurs. He can certainly put on a frightened face when someone else looks upon him as lunch and a convincing grin when he sees something astounding. He has been up close in personal with nature today so he certainly knows what he's doing. The BBC has come a long way since Walking with Dinosaurs and I hope a lot of people know and appreciate that.

Spoilers within!!!I grew up loving Dinosaurs. I love this show. Instead of it being an Indiana Jones adventure its more like the Crocodile Hunter. There's great attention to detail and to science. There's also a lot of humor and well thought out interaction. The film work is marvelous. The special effects are second only to major film work I loved it.BBC did an incredible job of making this a believable documentary. The DVD is broken into a number of smaller episdes, each exploring another aspect of the ancient world. Again, the research was well done.SPOILERI loved Nigels interaction and misadventures with animals, particularly when the Megladon almost ate him and he chewed out his staff for their gaffes!Great great show, wish they'd make more!
