Dora and the Lost City of Gold Reviews

Dora and the Lost City of Gold is a smart, funny, and charming adventure that earns a 7.2/10 rating. Director James Bobin delivers a film that honors the spirit of the beloved cartoon while cleverly subverting its conventions with self-aware humor.

Highlights:

• Clever Screenplay: The film's self-aware humor is its greatest asset, playfully poking fun at the cartoon's tropes.
• Charming Performance: Isabela Moner is perfectly cast as Dora, embodying the character's positivity and competence with charm.
• Balanced Tone: The film balances high school comedy, family-friendly adventure, and heartfelt emotion.

Criticisms:

• Predictable Plot: The "lost city" adventure follows a fairly generic and predictable path.
• One-Dimensional Villains: The villains are standard and one-note antagonists.

Overall, Dora and the Lost City of Gold is a loving tribute to the source material that's also clever enough to stand on its own as a great adventure-comedy, making it a genuine gem for the whole family.

Its actually so funny??? Like hilarious. And it makes really good callbacks to the show. I loved both shows (Dora/Diego) so I thought it was super cute

I GOT NIGHTMARES FROM WATCHING THIS WHEN I WAS LIKE 7. I was with my grandma and we thought it would be like a normal Dora kids movie and boy was I wrong. I cried after leaving so don’t watch with kids
3/10

Lowk creepy

Idk how to feel abt it but dora might be schizophrenia

Ehh wtf is this ?!?!

I laughed so hard and shes iconic.

Shockingly this movie it’s incredible!!
Live action remakes are a big hit or miss for me and this was a huge hit to me!! So funny and entertaining!

10/10

Goofily charming and a rare, age-appropriate children's film in which the adults are silly and the kids, especially the girls, are smart. Those who have grown up with Dora should enjoy the reunion and a new generation will probably be just as entranced.

I truly expected this to be completely horrible but it wasn’t bad. It was decent for a kid cartoon show turned into a live action movie.

Overall it was surprisingly good I wasn’t expecting it to be so good for it being a movie based of Dora but it was??? Shocked

better than expected

Surprisingly good. Has great references for people who watched the animated show growing up

unexpected but love this movie

maybe it’s because i was such a huge dora fan as a kid and my expectations were too high but i really didn’t enjoy this :(

funny

Nul pourri caca

OMG the parents were so funny I loved them. I thought this was gonna be more childish but it was actually fun it had Jumanji vibes. I can't with the fact they made her schizoprenic.

good family movie
