Slow pace in the most part of the movie.

Brilliant and touching

The film makes a home in your brain and the only cure is to see it again.

It's a good bad... and worth a popcorn matinée. While it's easy to lament what could have been...

When i was younger I saw this movie and i thought I liked it but 7 years later i looked back in my life and realized it sucked. I looked it up and saw over 3,000 people agreed with me and i left it at that. Time passes and the movie was on HD Net and i decided to watch it and here is what I saw was wrong with it: 1. The movie makes so many references, the movie is full of references and the audience that this movie seems to be going after will definitely not know.The jokes that come with the references make you want to roll your eyes. 2.The animation is terrible the textures of the characters look exactingly so cheap. which is strange considering the amazing cast this movie has Ian McKellen, John Stewart, Jimmy Fallon, Whoopi Goldberg, Judi Dench, Chevy Chase, William H Macy, and Kevin Smith. you would think with such a cast the budget would have enough for a good animator, the entire time I was thinking how ugly it was and even the actual animation seemed lazy the snail(Brian) is almost always in the same position. 3. The story, jokes, and characters are confusing and terrible.When i say confusing I don't mean it's hard to follow, it just doesn't make since at all. I know i already complain about the jokes they are just so forced that they are terrible. The characters are incredibly 1-D you can put them any any other bad film and they could blend in, you could put them in the background and the movie would be better. Now the story and it's just weird I mean it doesn't make sense at all. There are many things to complain about (character designs are also strange and weird) and i cant talk about them all. The reason I gave it 2 stars instead of 1 is because i was fascinated in how bad it was i didn't immediately turn it off.

I usually do my best reviews with lists. So here are all the mistakes the movie made, sealing its doom at the box office: 1) Just right off the bat, never EVER say "From the creator of 'The Fairly Odd Parents'" because not only is that show horrible for children, but that just shouts out "HEY! WANNA COME AND HEAR SOME FART JOKES?!" instead of just a regular trailer. I mean, I was a kid when I saw that in the trailer and even then that was a foreshadow for a plain old suck movie.2) The humor just bombed. And I am not kidding (seriously, I'm not) when I say Beverly Hills Chihuahua or The Cat In the Hat is ten times funnier than this tall glass of diarrhea. Most of it is just references to movies and shows, but they're poorly placed and poorly written. Christ, at least Family Guy manages to make me laugh when they make references like that. And after stocking up the shelves with failed attempts at references, they plug up every last nook and cranny with farts and stupid puns (For instance- "I've got a BONE to pick with you" while fighting with skeletons). Jesus, I did not laugh once, not even when I was seeing this for the first time when I was a kid! No lies! 3) The acting was horrible. And that's saying something, considering this was an animated movie, because it is near impossible to overact in a cartoon. Yet, this was an all-star cast! So how could they have completely hammed up the movie? My guess would be in the writer's department. Sometimes it's not the actors, it's the dialogue. But, the bottom line is a pig could be roasting a pig that's eating another pig and it would still be less hammy than this movie.I will say that the British version of this movie (the original, actually) has better acting and better jokes/dialogue, so if you were going to see one of the movies, see that one. But all I see this movie as is another reason Butch Hartman is just a hack that thinks jotting down any poop joke that pops into his head and turning it into an episode of The Fairly Odd Parents counts as writing a children show. This movie deserves a 1/10, because I will say in its defense that it does take a lot of work for a movie this horrible to get such an all-star cast. They must have some kind of dirt on all of them or something because something tells me none of them participated in this movie deliberately. Christ Almighty, this movie was crap.

This movie is awful, not because of the movie itself, but because of the dreadful casting. I recommend you watch the British version 'The Magic Roundabout' as the voice actors give life and a real personality to the characters, making it a fantastic movie. This version of the movie contains poor jokes and removes all the charm of it's British counterpart. I was particularly dismayed by the fact that Doogal appears to have the voice of a young boy, which is a sharp contrast to the colourful voice of Robbie Williams. The entire thing appears flat and it is a real shame that something that was a beloved feature of many people's childhood, has been made out to be just another run of the mill animation.

It was on TV last night, and I thought, "I heard it was bad, but i'll watch it for the heck of it..."My mistake.The story is about a dog who I instantly disliked. He nearly ran a poor man off the road to steal candy, trapped the only person who cares for him in a cold death trap, that HE caused. And not only that, released an evil wizard. That's another thing, who in their right mind would trap a insane murderer IN A BLOODY ROUNDABOUT?!?! Well, anyway, 10 minutes into the film, dougal and a bunch characters we don't know anything about go off to save the world. Where's the substance?? No child could get this movie. I honestly could not watch the rest and left Dougal to be interrogated by Zeebad. Hopefully, Zeebad will realize where he is and teleport out of this movie. 2/10
