Zog and the Flying Doctors (2020 TV Movie)
Very Poor Compared to Original Zog
8 September 2021
The first Zog film was excellent. Granted, the Zog book itself was better, but Zog & The Flyikg Doctors film is pretty bad.

The voices are poorly selected (the Lion, the King, the Mermaid, the Unicorn - they all just don't sit quite right).

The narration by Lenny Henry is awful (his "bang, crash, thumps" for example, have zero emphasis - he sounds bored like he just wants to get paid and go home).

There is too much fighting - they have embellished on the story and added in fight scenes that feel out of place, and not ideal for watching with a toddler.

All in all, pretty poor. Stick with the original - the story, and the execution of the film, are leagues above this.
