TeenzTen An action-packed slog
Peereddi I was totally surprised at how great this film.You could feel your paranoia rise as the film went on and as you gradually learned the details of the real situation.
ActuallyGlimmer The best films of this genre always show a path and provide a takeaway for being a better person.
Mabel Munoz Just intense enough to provide a much-needed diversion, just lightweight enough to make you forget about it soon after it’s over. It’s not exactly “good,” per se, but it does what it sets out to do in terms of putting us on edge, which makes it … successful?
attikitty After reading nothing but terrible reviews of this movie, I finally felt compelled to weigh in. I loved the Jay Ward comics... their irreverence and ability to be entertaining on both an adult and child level. I found the movie sweetly amusing and very loyal to the classic cartoon. All the actors were great in their roles. The writing was clever.I gave it to my twin nephews for their birthday, knowing they will enjoy it and my sister will love it. After reading such dreadful reviews, I watched it twice to make certain I wasn't missing something. NO. It's funny.
Trombonehead Normally I wouldn't comment on a movie like this, but while flipping channels I started watching it out of curiosity. Within minutes I could see it was really lame and dumb. Eric Idle, who is normally one of my favorite comedians, is really disappointing. Obviously he did this for the money, because this is the worst thing I've ever seen him involved with. Alfred Molina as well, because he is a great actor with comedic talents which he displayed so well in "Maverick". The rest of the cast are totally pathetic. What really got me going was the scene when Dudley rows across the lake with Parker to visit the Indian camp. You would think that the standard, racist, put-down of the Indian people that Hollywood got away with for so many years wouldn't be acceptable anymore. But these people seem to think it's funny to put on Indian costumes and mock the stereotype. It might be funny to some people, but this is really scraping the bottom of the barrel when you have to resort to making fun of the Indian people like this. In fact, it could be called racist. It's the same kind of low-life stuff that Hollywood used to do with black-face when mocking black people was acceptable. Unfortunately, there's no shortage of idiots in Hollywood coming up with this crap.
emasterslake After the failure attempts on George of the Jungle. They now try another one, Dudley Do-Right.About an entirely dumb Mountie who tries to make the people feel safe to walk around. Right until the villain of the town, Snidely Whiplash has stolen all the gold and money with his hundred henchmen and plots to spread it all over the rivers of Canada to create a new Gold Rush. And using the stolen money to buy out the town and turn it into his own domain. And no ones wanting to arrest him because he's giving away free gold in the river. Dudley Do-Right must find a way to stop Snidley, and show the towns people that Snidley is still the villain.The movie has a load of pet peeves. Including script, plot, jokes, cast members, direction, and acting.The script needed to take away all the part that sucked and replace them with stuff that doesn't suck.The plot needed a better idea, but it didn't it made the movie unbearable within the first 1 minute of the movie.The 3/4 of the jokes were either lame or stupid. Including the usage of the characters thinking there are vampires. It was like they couldn't think of anything that is funny.Cast members, really poor choices and unsuitable roles. Brandon Fraiser should of skip doing this film. While Alfred Molina had far better roles than this movie.Direction and production, the whole movie was unorganized and the director probably didn't care it was going to bomb the box office without even trying to make the flow of the movie any good. And I can tell they waisted so much money on the sets and the props for a movie that didn't even deserve to be on the silver screen.Overrall this movie was so bad the DVDs and Videos of it are very scarce at the retail stores cause no one in their right minds would buy a below C rated movie.Even if you manage to find it at your rental store, just be worn that it's no where close to being good.
ccthemovieman-1 This actually wasn't as bad as you might think. It's harmless fluff, silly in many parts but also a movie filled with likable characters and good adult jokes that go over the kids' heads. It's clean stuff: references to other movies and things. It's one of these films you find yourself laughing more than the kids but the next day you really can't remember much that you saw. In other words, you will be entertained but it's not a memorable movie.The horse might be in the running as the most memorable character in the film. Even the villain isn't despicable. He's more cartoon-like than evil. Alfred Molina does a nice job as "Snidely Whiplash." Eric Idle and Sarah Jessica Parker are also good in here.Brendan Fraser, playing the title role, was on a role their for a couple of years, playing these silly, comedic roles and being successful in doing so (i.e. George Of The Jungle, Bedazzled, etc.)Don't dismiss this as totally stupid. It will surprise you. All of us can use a good laugh and this movie provides plenty.
