The big question with the movie is will parents enjoy themselves too, or is this just an outing to keep the kids happy for 90 minutes? I’m pleased to say that parents and kids alike will enjoy this. Mom’s, aunt’s and older sisters will find Fraser just as studly as ever and will doubtless be putting Hutcherson on their ‘must watch’ lists; while dad’s, uncles and older brothers will love the action, the T-Rex attacks and the very easy-on-the-eyes mountain guide Anita Briem.

I think this is definitely a perfect family movie if you have small boys, if you have girls then I’d say skip this and head straight to Kitt Kittredge, cause that was the perfect family film for them. Either way, for the first time in a long time families have a decent choice at the box office. Go out and enjoy it before it disappears again!

Movie Grade: B+
