Doogal (2006)
Full of clichés
My son is 5.5 years old and he loved it. That being said, it's got probably the most clichés of anything I've seen in recent years. The story was completely predictable. I chuckled a couple of times, mostly in response to Jon Stewart's character, Zee-bad. The audience only really laughed in response to the flatulent moose. The rest were either shallow or a mish-mash of styles. It was as though the writers couldn't keep a straight thought in their respective heads and just strung together various pop culture references the kids would miss and parents unfortunately would get. Despite my willingness to sit through most anything 2-3 times for my son, I had to put my foot down on this one. P.S. My son's first comment was, "why doesn't Doogal have the same voice as in the commercials?" It just went down from there.
