Hmm. Their reviewer gave it 3 stars. And included a Sex/Nudity warning. FOR A FUCKING CARTOON!

The movie may be alluding to human Evolution through the use of characters who appear to be primitive humans. The movie also assumes that dinosaurs lived millions of years ago.

The seven-minute short film “Sanjay’s Super Team” which precedes “The Good Dinosaur” in theaters also raises some content concerns. A father and son are shown engaging in a Hindu meditation ritual, and the son daydreams of a battle in which a cartoon superhero and several gods team up to fight off a rather ugly-looking monster. Young children may find this scarier than any particular scene within “The Good Dinosaur” itself.

Violence: Moderate to heavy / Language: Minor (no profanity) / Sex/Nudity: Minor—Spot wears only a leaf diaper.

For more evolutionary hilarity, here's a link to their review of "Jurassic World:"

And right on topic for something else we've been discussing - Xian Answers always has a "PRAYER FOCUS" feature on their front page. So you too can feel good about doing nothing except moving your lips:

Today’s prayer focus

Brad Paisley, recording artist, actor, composer—“Cars” (soundtrack), “CMT Top 20 Countdown”
Scott Pelley, anchor and managing editor of the “CBS Evening News” and a correspondent for “60 Minutes”

Please take a moment now to pray for these influential people (prayer suggestions). Don’t just complain about “Hollywood,” PRAY for these influential people.

Hollywood and Jesus Christ— What do celebrities believe?
