The segments "Walking with Monsters" and "Walking with Dinosaurs" (narrated by Kenneth Branagh) provide an informative overview of the evolution of life on earth preceding and through the reign of the dinosaurs. You feel like you are there with nice little touches like the creatures occasionally bumping into the camera.
The segments that comprise "Chased by Dinosaurs," hosted/narrated by Nigel Marven, are perhaps the most entertaining for children because it brings to life every dino-loving child's fantasy: to be a time-traveling paleontologist. Marven is just that, dropping himself into and exploring the world of the dinosaurs and their ancestors, with all the excitement and danger that one would expect suddenly being confronted with when roaming around in the time of such creatures. It is all played straight and it comes off as a real documentary--aside from the high improbability that anyone could actually survive any one of (let alone all) the close encounters Marvin has.
"Allosaurs" provides a glimpse into how today's paleontologist's use the information revealed by the fossils that are discovered to piece together possible scenarios about how the dinosaurs lived and eventually died.
All segments are expertly done and strike a fine balance between education and entertainment. My son loved every minute of the entire collection and his new greatest wish--after wishing that Pokemon were real--is to have the special map that Nigel Marven uses to travel back to the seven deadliest seas in the "Walking with" segment, "Sea Monsters."
In terms of what age this material is appropriate for...as one would expect in the age of the dinosaurs, they hunt, kill, and eat each other. Any such depictions in this collection are only meant to be an authentic representation of life during those time and I did not find any to be gratuitously violent or gruesome. But, just know that it does happen and parents buying this for children should consider this when trying to determine if their child is old or mature enough for such depictions. My son was 9 when we got this for him but he has been watching BBC documentaries such as "Blue Planet," "Planet Earth," and "Life" (all of which are great) since he was about 5 or 6.
Disk two has the six episodes of Walking With Dinosaurs (30 minutes each) and includes the option of having the occasional picture-in-picture which describes the behind-the-scenes.
Disk three has the two Chased By Dinosaurs episodes (Land of Giants and The Giant Claw (30 minutes each)), and the three Sea Monsters episodes (30 minutes each). These are all done in the style of a man being sent back in time to investigate the creatures like a modern day naturalist doing a nature program. Finally, there is Allosaurus (also known as The Ballad of Big Al, 30 mins) which follows the life of a single Allosaurus.
I have previously borrowed the regular VHS of Allosaurus, which featured a good 30 minute "Making Of" at the end, which is unfortunately missing from this collection. The only other missing BBC tv programs from the same makers is Walking With Beasts, but that would be a whole extra DVD worth and you can buy it separately anyway.
The biggest flaw is the obvious - most of it is based on educated guesses, since all we really have is a load of bones and footprints rather than actually being able to observe dinosaurs in the wild. But since the whole point is to show these ancient creatures in the same way as a modern-day nature program, that is a bit of a silly objection. It came in a cardboard case which was squashed a bit when I received it, but that wasn't as big a deal as it not having any contents list anywhere - the only indication of what is included is written on the disks themselves so I had to do my own research to see if anything was missing.
Overall, it is a wonderful set and good value for money. My children love it. I'd give it 4.5 out of 5, but at this price it is worth rounding up to 5/5.
CHASED BY DINOSAURS is a "Crocodile Hunter" style integration of dinosaurs and the narrator running around the prehistoric landscape in a kind of high-tech LAND OF THE LOST. If anything, I'm a little bothered by the false impression that's making. But it's a lot of fun.
My only note of caution is that WALKING WITH MONSTERS is available as a separate DVD, and if you're used to seeing it as "Before the Dinosaurs" (the subtitle), it could be easy to do what I did and buy it separately, and end up with two copies. Both of which were immediately opened by an enthusiastic 4-y-o, so not returnable. Backup copies are good, though, for something this insanely popular at our house!

So, in summary, buy the first two DVD's separately.
