Those who have grown up with Dora should enjoy the reunion and a new generation will probably be just as entranced. September 18, 2019 | Rating: 3.5/5 | Full Review…

Suffice to say that this film is keenly aware of its origins and their essential absurdity. August 16, 2019 | Rating: 3/5 | Full Review…

Moner's layered comedic performance, which at once nods at the "Dora" formula while acknowledging the conceit, is deceptively difficult and nuanced... delightfully dorky, a rare commodity in this day and age of sarcastic, wise-beyond-their-years teens. August 12, 2019 | Full Review…

If by some chance the kids corral you into this Jumanji rip-off, at least see it all the way through the spirited, semi-reparative closing credits number. August 10, 2019 | Rating: 0/5 | Full Review…

If only every big screen adaptation of a beloved existing property could feel this funny and fresh, there'd be less to fear about an industry besieged by recycled material that never takes a risk. August 9, 2019 | Rating: B+ | Full Review…

A delightful throwback to 80s family-adventure movies -- camp, funny, slapstick and just the right amount of silly. January 29, 2020 | Rating: 3/5 | Full Review…

It's obvious that the filmmakers have a lot of love for these types of movies, and although none of the set pieces are terribly original, they're still a lot of fun. January 18, 2020 | Full Review…

A charming film that may entertain children more than adults, but no one will walk out without a smile on their face. [Full Review in Spanish] November 13, 2019 | Full Review…

Almost 20 years after the much-loved animated series Dora the Explorer debuted, this live-action update does a terrific job of at being once a homage and a parody. October 1, 2019 | Rating: 4/5 | Full Review…
