It's a yabba-dabba-delight.

Look beyond the perfunctory dinosaur flatulence jokes, and Viva Rock Vegas is really quite sweet and clever.
63
Actually more entertaining than its 1994 predecessor.

If you walk in with your expectations at a suitably low setting, you won't walk away disappointed.

Portland OregonianDavid Germain
Cute and funny, with plenty of slapstick and cuddly creatures for the kids and enough adult wit to keep parents reasonably amused.
50
Lame and misguided homage, which reduces satire to vulgar silliness for kids.
38
Accomplishes something I would have thought impossible. It made me appreciate its 1994 predecessor, "The Flintstones."
25
A tired piece of hackery, made only slightly less distasteful by a couple of inspired moments from supporting player Alan Cumming.

Now and again, the bizarre occurs, such as when Fred and Barney don showgirl outfits and seem to be doing their version of "The Birdcage." But mundane is more the norm.
20
A bumpy synthesis of special and visual effects done far too over the top ultimately means Viva Rock Vegas is nothing more than eye candy, and not a very tasty piece at that.
