Doug's 1st Movie

I saw this movie when I was a kid. I grew up watching the Nickeleon Doug but didn't see much of the Disney Doug.

At first I seemed to enjoyed it from the first time seeing it.

But years later I didn't felt like watching it again.

Getting the VHS was a waist of money if I didn't bother in watching it again.

This has to do with Doug and Skeeter trying to solve there monster in the Lucky Duck Lake mystery. They encounter the monster who's more friendly than it seems. They were going to show it to the public but didn't bother since the creature would get captured and imprisoned. Mr. Bluff over hears about it and has sent out agents to locate the creature, blah blah blah.

I thought it be great bu it stank. Disney ruined Doug for the last time.

Those who only like the Nickeleon Doug keep away from this movie if you dislike the Disney Doug. It just isn't the same as it was from the early 90s.

I was looking forward to seeing this movie, but after finally watching it I was quite disappointed. There were some good parts, but it wasn't the best film I ever saw. It was strange and it felt like a weird mix between a movie or a special episode. I think it's a good thing Doug only made 1 movie and didn't make any more after that. I also wasn't very fond of Doug and Patti's relationship and felt like it left it open ended instead of actually resolving it. Honestly, I feel like this movie had some areas in need of some serious improvement. Overall, it wasn't a great film and I'm not sure I would watch it again.

This is a very "basic" kind of animated movie. It feels like an extended TV show episode with low stakes, lacklustre animation and nothing particularly exciting. In this way, it reminds me of the first Hey Arnold! movie. The characters are stupid, the events are meandering and the cutaway gags are long and distracting. The moral of the story is drowned out in contrived drama and bizarre and cliché antics. Yet somehow I was quite engaged with the emotional arc of the characters so I can't fault it too much.

Personally, I think "Doug's 1st Movie" was boring and a waste of time. I think when the Doug TV Series was on Nick was good, then Disney came in. Probably kids from the ages of 4-9 will be able to sit through this movie, and maybe their parents, but nobody else. It was okay though I guess, I'm sure the younger kids probably liked it and it still has problems that everyone can relate to. But come on, what was up with that monster? And why did they have to show those people giving it a shot?(well, I felt sick!). I would give it 4 stars out of 10. And by the way, why was Disney's "Doug" TV series canceled that same year? And why the heck was the movie PG? Oh well!

This is one of those kids' films that adults can't sit down and watch as well. Okay, it's got nice morals, but pleeeeease, no DOUG'S 2ND MOVIE !!!!! Boring attempt to stretch a tiny DOUG episode into a feature-length production...didn't work. 4/10
