Audience Reviews for Dora and the Lost City of Gold

  • Mar 20, 2020
    It's cheesy, little kiddish, and dorky as hell, but good lord is it fun. I watched it out of some sense of morbid curiosity but my god is this movie miles better than it has any right to be. Is it a great movie? Hell no. It resorts to a few cheep jokes, and sometimes it bothered me when they went for the fart joke or even a more mature joke in a Dora product. Some of the humor also just comes off as awkward and really doesn't land. It also must be said that the story is generic as hell. If this is a kids first adventure film, they won't mind, but this is basically every puzzle/adventure video game or movie you've ever seen. The final act straight up just becomes Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade. That being said, it's just fun! It sets its tone immediately in the first few minutes and I really had fun with it. Think of it kinda' like The Brady Bunch movie, where it's a real-ish world, but Dora's still Dora from the show. That's sort of their angle, and it's honestly often hilarious. A lot of times it made me laugh from its sheer oddness. When Swiper the Fox first appears, he doesn't get an explanation, and the characters even sort of break the fourth wall on how weird he is. Does it make sense in the films universe? Not really, but it's still funny, and for the type of movie this established itself as that's fine. So with an oddball sense of humor and an aggressively committed performance from Isabbella Moner as Dora who just OWNS this role, this movie actually had me enjoying myself a lot more than I expected.
