The Good Dinosaur suffers from being a Pixar movie that debuted the same year as Inside Out. The animation is the best I've seen in a movie. Just like the first time I saw Incredibles and Elastagirl's hair, the scenery in The Good Dinosaur is astounding. Unfortunately, this movie is otherwise a run of the mill Disney film. Arlo, the eponymous Good Dinosaur, is the runt of his siblings and seemingly fails at every task assigned to him. His father is killed in a very Mufasa-esque scene this time with rushing water instead of a herd of wildebeests. I'm really not sure why this movie had to take place in an alternate universe.
Watch It: If you want to see a solid animated movie.
Skip It: If you have young children, there's no blood, but a decent amount of violence and scary moments.
