Maybe it's just nostalgia that makes me love The Land Before Time, but I'm pretty sure the beautiful scenery at least does hold up. And that theme music, oh my God, right in the chest... That might be nostalgia again... Final rating:★★★½ - I really liked it. Would strongly recommend you give it your time.
