Such a frustrating disappointment
When a movie has you begging for it to end not even half way through it's pure crap. We've all seen this movie and this characters millions of times, nothing new in it. Don't waste your time.
This story has more twists and turns than a second-rate soap opera.
The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.
Back when I was born in 1998 I never really grew up watching the show Doug but when reruns came on TV I was pretty entertained by it. But when I was 6 years old my mom found out that I liked Doug she bought me the movie on VHS. I watched this movie all the time for the next year. Recently now in the year 2011 I came across a box of VHS Tapes and found this movie. I sat down and watched it and now I can happily say that I sold it and never want to see it again.The films plot, if you want to call it that, is about Doug and his friend Skeeter find a monster in Lucky Duck Lake and name it Herman Melville the author of Moby Dick. They go through every cliché in the book in order to hide the monster but soon the villain Mr. Bluff wants to kill the monster and keep the 2 boys quiet about him polluting in the lake.This movie is just a downright mess. The story, again if you want to call it that be my guest, is so clichéd and tired that I get sick of looking at it, The animation looks like a six year old colored his coloring book at 4 in the morning, and the voice acting is just annoying and terrible which is a first of me saying that because usually in an animated film I praise the voice acting. The only redeeming factor this movie has is that it is under an hour and a half. I suggest you steer clear of this one.Raetd G.1hr 23min/83min.BOMB/****
Personally, I think "Doug's 1st Movie" was boring and a waste of time. I think when the Doug TV Series was on Nick was good, then Disney came in. Probably kids from the ages of 4-9 will be able to sit through this movie, and maybe their parents, but nobody else. It was okay though I guess, I'm sure the younger kids probably liked it and it still has problems that everyone can relate to. But come on, what was up with that monster? And why did they have to show those people giving it a shot?(well, I felt sick!). I would give it 4 stars out of 10. And by the way, why was Disney's "Doug" TV series canceled that same year? And why the heck was the movie PG? Oh well!
I don't process much working knowledge about Doug and his adventures. I think he started as a program on the Nickelodian cable channel. So, I have no idea if a lack of insight impaired my opinion ; I wondered why some people were green and blue. The story and animation are average. I imagine they are similar to the television show. Patti Mayonnaise reminded me of a cartoon version of Sandy Duncan. 2 out of 4 stars.
I'll admit it, I'm a guilty fan of the TV show. Doug is a geniunely likable character, and the movie is entertaining. Its not going to win any awards, but for a good babysitting movie, or ever something to do when you're bored, you really can't mess this one up.
