My kids just loved this movie when they were young. Therefore, as a dad, I watched it at least thirty times (probably more !) The very first time we brought them to London, we went to the Natural History Museum (where much of the movie was filmed), to see those very skeletons. One of the happiest days of my life was our six and four year olds running around the place screaming the names of every dinosaur they saw and how proud I was when a school teacher taking her Year 7 (Our Grade 7 - ages 11 to 12) on field trip, walked up to me and asked in amazement, "how old are those children?" . She apparently was having trouble getting the correct answers out of her class. Find the movie somewhere, as it may be the the catalyst for our next great Canadian paleontologist. Five or so years later, it was touring sites where the first Harry Potter movie was filmed, but that's a different story)
