A fantastic downpour creates a mysterious "new water," and when Littlefoot sets out to explore the Great Valley, he soon strikes up a fast friendship with fun-loving water dweller Mo. When Mo confides to Littlefoot that he fears he will never find his way back to the Big Water, Littlefoot wastes no time in gathering his old pals in hopes of helping his new friend find a way back home. In addition to offering valuable lessons in friendship and courage, The Land Before Time: Journey to Big Water also features the Donny Osmond song "No One Has to Be Alone." ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

This time the film has a new dolphin like character. He, like Petrie, Ducky and Spike is pretty stupid and uses incorrect grammar. This means that most of the main characters just irritate. The film has trouble coming up withe even simple themes, so just has something about an imaginary friend. A lot of filler material for a "walk straight ahead" plot. It also has some unnecessary CGI, such as a log that Cera is pushing. I don't know why some objects are CGI, perhaps they were just experimenting for future films.

I think my crippling depression started shortly after watching this movie as a child.

Loved the first one, but I think 9 might be pushing it with sequels about baby dinosaurs on an adventure. The first movie was the best.
