A wonderful surprise
This movie portrays the story of a girl, Chie, who has been skipping school since the divorce of her parents, and she currently lives with her father, who is a paleontologist. One day, her father's team and Chie will go on an expedition, not knowing that they'll end up finding something different from their previous ones, and that will be a fresh dinosaur egg.
From their first meeting, you'll be able to predict how the girl and the dinosaur will end up having a strong bond, since the girl will notice how similar they both are. The friendship that you'll be shown here between the dinosaur and the little girl is a wholesome one that I think it got developed at a perfect pace.
Chie was a really lovely character, and her whole development was beautifully done. She started as someone who had been seriously affected by the abandonment of her mother and that may her close and isolate herself from others, even her own father, who seemed to be more interested in his job rather than paying attention to her. I couldn't help but tear up at the last scene when I saw how much she had grown.
Our main character meeting Rex, the baby dinosaur, and all the things that will happen to them will be the start and an important part of her growth as a person. On the other hand, the amount of events related to her family will also help her to become stronger and a wonderful girl in the future.
This movie has some overdramatic moments that will make you roll your eyes a few times, and the villains were also pretty mediocre. Due to that, the tension in some scenes gets practically lost most of the time. However, I'm sure they intended to do this kind of light movie rather than something more serious. Nevertheless, I enjoyed it. I can't share any complaints about this movie, as it honestly surpassed all my expectations, specially in terms of special effects and acting, the former being pretty well done for a 1993 movie. I was pleasantly surprised.
Finally, the cast's performance was great and Adachi Yumi did an awesome job here portraying Chie's character. I also want to highlight how good the background music and songs played were. I specially liked Toki no Tabiji, it honestly fit so well in all the scenes it appeared.
Overall, it was a really enjoyable story with a touching ending that I'm glad I came across with it today. A great story to pass the time!
