Enter his dinosaur pals Littlefoot, Cera, Spike and Ducky, who encourage Petrie to embrace his uniqueness.

Reviewer notes

Not recommendedTrusted family reviewers
Guido might be the worst character yet. Also about a third of this movie's runtime is dinosaurs saying "No, Guido" while he sleepwalks for no reason. _Final rating:★½: - Boring/disappointing. Avoid where possible._
