Ok, here it is, the final installment in a twelve part series of DVD's from the blast from the past - ''the land before time'' childrens film series. I am quite lucky to own this as is currently a pre-release and I've only got my hands on this due to the fact that my American uncle loves me, also we let him stay everynow and then. But more importantly is probably because he's such a wonderful person and he knows how much The Land Before Time Films are my favourite and always manage to make me cry. This one's entitled ''Day of The Flyers' and concentrates on Petrie.

COST: This is a pre-released DVD
PLACE OF PURCHASE: none, was a gift from my American uncle
REGION: 1
NUMBER OF DISCS: 1
CERTIFICATE: U

Story:
This one folows Petrie the flying dinsaur, who is having a difficult time preparing for "the day of the flyers". This is a very important day for all of the Dinosaurs capable of flight who live in the Great Valley. And theres no excuses, not even for petrie, all of the young flying dinos must participate. They endure a very precise flying exhibition in order to prove that they are ready to fly with the adults. Poor Petrie has always been an extremely nervous flyer and also quite an irratic one. But discovers he has even more trouble flying with his siblings, especailly in precise group formations. You'll know from seeing the other films that Peties personalitiy is (dispite his squeaky voice) is more of an independent, free-style kind of guy. At the same time, a strange newcomer to the Great Valley has Littlefoot and his friends trying to help figure out just exactly what he is. Named Guido, he's the strangest looking creature any of the Great Valley creatures has ever seen, especially since he's covered with multicolored "fuzzies" (feathers!), and has never seen another like himself. Cera is having her own troubles, as her grumpy dad and his new mate, Tria, get ready to welcome a hatchling to the family. All of these issues come together on the night before "the Day of the Flyers", when Guido starts to figure out what he is, inadvertently leading all of the gang on a perilous adventure into the Mysterious Beyond. A fantastic new dvd intallement. Also some graphics which you wouldn't expect having seen the rest as the colours appear much sharper, and is really quite impressive.
Songs are possibly not as frequent as the other films but are a tad bit longer in length. Good and original however and the Dolby surround sound plays really very well on my speakers. A super film and not a disappointment at all. I'm ever so grateful to my uncle and also to my universal DVD player that allows me to play this region 1 dvd for us big kids on our super silver widescreen T.V.!

Extras:
no extras, perhaps this is because it's a pre-release or maybe the american version doesnt have them. But I'm sure when released there will be some as it's a new production and every DVD nowadays seems to have some sort of 'bonus features' or another.

Overall a 4 star rating, A good conclusion to an epic series of films. And surprisingly good graphics compared to the previous ones. Songs are however along pretty much the same lines as others, but still equally enjoyable. Highly recommended good one for the 'The land before time' fan in us all.
Dear good lor' who knows when they'll bring out another!
Thanks for reading, take care & best wishes, mintz x x x
