Stop-motion spectacle. It seems like a project born from within the university, driven by its educational value. This isn't for a captivating children's story; it's a science lesson presented in a manageable format for children. A brilliant initiative. I can see this inspiring a Disney film, albeit with more adventurous twists. The film has a scale issue. For example, the brontosaurus on screen doesn't seem much bigger than the boat the children are in... Definitely worth seeing: stop-motion was practically the standard for special effects in the 1950s and 1960s... it's never pleasant to watch 
, but it remains an important milestone in the filmmakers' ability to show images that wouldn't otherwise have been possible.

A funny educational film about four boys who embark on a journey of discovery through prehistory, passing through all the eras on their journey. The effects are dated, of course, but that doesn't matter. Besides, I thought the swamp they end up in at one point was quite impressively done.
Furthermore, mainly a history lesson wrapped in a simple plot.
