thought this was very enjoyable - the kids loved it though at times the dinosaurs roars were quite loud and they covered their ears. would have loved to see the bird fly!!!!
the "host" was quite humorous at times and i thought he did a great job at bringing the "story" together.

What a great event. Our 5 year old son is always asking to see it again. I grew up a big fan of dinosaurs and the mainstream fascination seems to be coming back which is awesome. The costumes and animatronics were phenomenal. Can't wait to catch it again.

Amazing! Worth every penny. I took my 14 year old son and he loved it. The glow toys are a bit annoying but there's nothing you can do about who sits next to you. The show takes your breath away, it makes you laugh and it makes you think.

We were amazed at the entire show. The dinosaurs were incredibly life-like and with the special effects it made our experience that much more! It was also very educational, both for our 5 yr old and us! You really get a feel of what it was like back then. I have never heard a negative thing about anyone else's experience at this show - how could you??

I took my son to this show last time it was in Vancouver. We sat in the balcony the first time and sat down low this time. Both were amazing. When we were up high we could see just how enormous these dinosaurs were but having the Brachiousaurus leaning over top of you is a whole different perspective. If you want any merchandise though, bring your paycheque! $30 for a stuffed dinosaur????

I enjoyed how detailed and realistic the dinosaurs were. They were amazing to look at and wonderfully constructed. There could have been more interaction between the dinosaurs though. The show is mainly geared towards young kids.

we loved the show, the little of it that was presented. i agree that the effects, the story, the presentation is fantastic and i do give it 5 stars for sure. but we walked out disappointed: way too short, we wanted to see more of everything, more storyline, more information, more dinosaurs, more of their interaction with each other, more other creatures when then existed during those era, just more. we bought cheap seats and glad we did, because taking a 2.5 year old who sat on my husbands lap the whole time yet had to pay a full price in addition to the short performance was a let down. sorry ...

It was pretty good. It may have been a bit slow at the beginning with a lot of commentary which makes it hard for the very young ones who really want to see the dinosaurs right away.

Favourite moment: The plants were very cool, I must say. I liked how the dinosaurs with longer necks got closer to the audience sitting on the floor area. @

Very disappointed with the show. The dinosaurs did not look real at all because of their leg frame support. There was not much of any action going on in order to engage the crowd. They tried to use screens to give the illusion that the dinosaur was soaring through the sky. All the while, that dinosaur was just hanging from the ceiling, flapping its wing every so slowly. What a joke. Not much props used except these lighting effects on the ground, which were not that great anyhow. Better save your money and time. That's 2.5 hours that you'll never get back.

I really expected the show to be spectacular. It was not.
One could see the legs of the person alongside the legs of the costume of the small dinosaurs with a large space in between the two. The designers could have at least made a sock of sort attached to the dino's leg so that the person's leg could go in it and not be seen.
The large dinosaurs had a huge T-shaped thing dragging under and and behind. It was huge, you couldn't ignore it.
It would have been nice to see all the dinosaurs come out together at the end. I kept waiting for this to happen but it didn't.
I don't think the show was worth the money.

My two year old sat through the whole thing asking for more dinosaurs during the intermission. He NEVER stays still for more than 5 minutes. It was very neat to see the dinosaurs looking so realistic.We enjoyed it so much that It went by way to fast though!

Wow! This show was such fun, and full of amazing info too! My son is the paleontogist supremo, so he was the keener to see this one, but I thoroughly enjoyed the event too! I even got truly scared as the carnivores and raptors headed in for the kill. The youngun with me had to reassure me that they would all be okay.
I recommend this for anyone, especially those who are enamoured of the prehistoric creatures that rocked the earth!
Could Rogers Arena just please not sell those light fibres as the light is distracting when all around is dark during the show.
