Mixed bag
Well my son likes it bc it has a dino in it. It is one of the most nonsensical, horribly written, and just flat out boring kids movies I've had to watch. But like I said.....my son likes it.

The low point and hopefully the end of the series
Okay, I actually have followed this series since the first real movie, except "Family Vacation" which is apparently too much of a clip show to bother, and I have become accustomed to the low quality animation and questionable character design. What can I say; I have a soft spot for animated canines.But really, this is too much. Not only has the animation and the rendering deteriorated into something worth of 2001 Saturday morning TV. Not only does the story make precious little sense. No, the short film (43 minutes without credits) also manages to commit the deadly sin of being boring. For the first 30 minutes I suppressed the urge to press fast forward. After that, some rather pointless action scenes take over, ending in some sort of a climax that makes even less sense than the rest.The plot? Kate and Humphrey move the family away from the nasty wilderness where rogue wolves tried to abduct the kids (in another episode). They migrate to wolfurbia, where a wolf real estate agent offers them a plastic cave with automatic lights, and Humphrey takes up golfing. I wish I were kidding. I am not; the episode has dropped any pretense of being about real wolves. The golfing part is probably the most logical one since it's the hobby of the two avian comic reliefs since the first movie. The rest... uuuh.Why are there plastic caves? Two human gentlemen are trying to build a resort in the middle of nowhere on their ancestors' land to become rich. (The first thing they finished is the well-kept golf course and a bird-hypnotizing fountain, which tells a lot about their priorities.) To finance the resort building, they plan to unearth dinosaur bones from a sacred Indian burial ground and sell them to a museum. They also built the plastic caves into a real cliffside overlooking the golf course in an attempt to relocate wolves. (There are no other wolves around except the real estate agent, but who cares about details.) Sadly, their dino-digging efforts conjure up the incarnated spirits of two dinosaurs, a glaring pink colored cutified velociraptor-lookalike and a drab grey T-rex. (I would put in a spoiler warning, but they are on the DVD cover, so who cares.) The cubs discover the pink dinosaur; chase antics follow, until all plot points have been gracelessly choked to death.If someone pulls out arbitrary topics out of a hat and makes a movie out of it, it probably looks like this. The plot elements make no sense at all (weren't Kate and Humphrey part of a large pack in all previous episodes?). The story - what little there is - is devoid of any interesting parts. There is no character development to speak of. Real world physics does not exist. The designs are lazy and ugly at the same time. I'd ask what the creators were smoking but the result is not even funny.This thing is not just the low point of the series, it steps a whole level down from anything the previous parts delivered. I don't know what you will do; I will run away screaming from any further Alpha & Omega offers.(Please don't tell me "it's for the kids". Kids are smart; no need to make them dumber with bad TV.)(P.S. If you couldn't avoid the movie, give the following question a thought: What does really happen to the dinosaurs at the end of the film, inferring from what we saw earlier? ... Oopsie.)
