Despite a few nitpicks here and there, I largely adored the new movie. It delivered a simple new adventure starring our favorite dinosaur friends. There really isn't much more I could have asked for. As far as Land Before Time sequels go, I'd rank it among the better ones, easily. The plot might not have been as memorable or complex compared to movies like Journey Through the Mists or The Stone of Cold Fire, but it was definitely just as fun, if not more so.
For a direct-to-video 2D animated movie, the animation was solid, and the painted backgrounds stunning, I'd say. Voice work was top-notch too. Littlefoot and Chomper opened their mouths and sounded like Littlefoot and Chomper - not just poor imitations. The new voices for Grandpa Longneck and Mr. Threehorn were notably different, but not bad by any means. Most importantly, all the characters behaved like their old selves, and the new characters entertained with amusing personalities and quirks. The songs didn't take me out of the movie, and most were actually pretty catchy.
