    WAIT, THIS WAS ACTUALLY DECENT???

    OK, joking aside, we all thought this was gonna flop spectacularly. Dora has had a very rocky reputation and a live-action version sounds like a terrible idea. But to my surprise this was a very charming and pretty funny movie. It is mainly aimed at kids and that meant a bit of cringe-worthy moments here and there, but the whole product is just a lot of fun, and I'm saying this as someone who despises Dora The Explorer. Give it a watch, you may end up liking it.

    Better than I expected

    I used to watch this with my son when he was a kid, he's now 15. I took him to watch the screener as a joke lol. It was actually better than i expected. Although there are a few cringe worthy scenes that only little kids would enjoy, we both thought the movie was quite funny & overall entertaining. Solid 8 stars from me.

    Dora goes exploring - shocker!

    Okay, I never expected to be sitting watching this film and to be honest, I watched it when I was feeling a bit blurgh and needed a bit of brightness and happiness. And you know what, it delivered.

    It's not a great film by any means but it is a very good family film, something to sit and watch with the children on a Saturday afternoon.

    Isabela Merced was quite good in Transformers: The Last Knight and Instant Family and she shows again that she has a good future in family type films for the next few years.

    It's an adventure story with lots of silliness and friendships, an Indiana Jones for the younger generation with less snakes and more brightly coloured outfits.

    You know what, I'll give it a 12/20 because it is a good fun.

    I can't believe I liked it

    I didn't think I would like this teenage adventure, but I did. This film is a fun filled adventure, with much positivity, fun and thrill. Scenes are colourful, songs are upbeat, and the film is quite a fun ride. I can't believe I liked it!

    Remember who this movie is for

    As a toddler, my daughter adored Dora. My son loved Go Diego, Go. Now, as older elementary students, they had a blast at this movie, and I did too. I thought the talking Swiper was weird, but it was one of my son's favorite parts. This movie was about being positive and being yourself, and the movie boldly said, 'I'm not going to try to be something I'm not.' It was entertaining and fun, and my kids came out singing and dancing. Isn't that the point? With so many violent and intense movies these days, this proved a refreshing change.

    • Crazy credits
      There is a statement from the Fox Council of America (it's fictitious, it has Swiper's face on the logo) at the start of the film: "Everything you are about to see is true. Except that foxes don't swipe. That is a hurtful stereotype."
