Raidersof the Lost Ark lite for kids? That’s what Lost City is, mostly, and there’s nothing wrong with that. What’s wrong is that it takes Lost City a solid 35 minutes to figure out that this is the kind of movie it is going to be. Before it settles on Indiana Jones–ish action drama, the movie indulges a long, pointless detour with the now teenaged Dora as she is exiled from
6/10 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. 120 out of 138 found this helpful. Was this review helpful? Sign in to vote. Permalink 7/10 I can't believe I'm recommending Dora and the Lost City of Gold...but it was funny and a had a committed actress as Dora "Can you find the map behind either of the three bushes?" is one of several things little Dora would ask her viewers on her show Dora the Explorer. I was in middle school when Dora the Explorer made it's debut on Nickelodeon. I was already too old for it, but it was a monster hit for the under seven demographic it was aiming for. From the few episodes I saw, it did it's job well buy keeping kids interacting with the show. But unlike Blues Clues that had very mundane and general mysteries, Dora the Explorer at least tried to add a little more education with zoology and a main character that was Latina. I merely saw it as harmless while Nickelodeon saw it as the age where reboots and remakes are all the rage, it makes sense Hollywood would want to tap into the nostalgia of Dora before it was too late. When a movie was announced, I kept wondering how that would be done as movies based off a little kid aimed material rarely sells. Just as the people who've made movies off of Sesame Street and Thomas the Tank Engine. But Dora and the Lost City of Gold tries something different; it tries to be teenager Dora played by Isabela Moner may be grown up, but still loves exploring the South American jungle with her monkey Boots played by Danny Trejo, singing songs to herself and keeping an upbeat sprit about her life. After a fall, her parents Cole played by Michael Peña and Elena played by Eva Longoria decide that she needs to be around kids her own age and send her to Los Angeles to go live with her cousin Diego played by Jeff Wahlberg.When going to Diego's high school, she finds her jungle skills and knowledge out of place in a culture of cliques and teenage angst. Nevertheless, she continues to be herself while trying to get back her friendship she used to have with Diego. The both of them are on a fieldtrip when they and two other students get kidnapped by treasure hunters who hope Dora can lead them to her parents who are searching for a lost city of gold. Their sent back to South America, but get away thanks to a fellow explorer Alejandro played by Eugenio Derbez. Even with an adult, it's up to Dora to lead her friends into the jungle the find her parents and perhaps a lost city of can't believe I'm saying this, but I actually liked Dora and the Lost City of Gold. Not only was it genuinely funny, but it kept my interest in a story that seems like a safer version of Goonies. Is it as good as the latter? No, in fact there are moments that are too dumb, but for the most part, this is a movie that knows what it is and wants to be a silly adventure. There's nothing wrong with being is a movie that's made for fans of Dora the Explorer, but it's also for those that made fun of it. It's aware of how annoying the cartoon was for the adults who had to listen to it when their toddlers watched it. A lot of it works thanks to Isabela Moner, who remains as committed as hell to not only making her work as a likable character, but one who can be a literal live-action I had fun, I know that regular adult are not going to get into this at all if they don't have some nostalgia with the character. What does hurt it is while it tries to evolve Dora and her adventure, it still succumbs to cliché family movie parts like the annoying geek character and bathroom jokes. I understand it's a film that still has to appeal to children, but if movies like Inside Out and Up have shown anything, the story can still be great without having to go for lowbrow humor. A part of me also realizes that if I was around ten, I would have dug this movie and maybe even asked my parents to take me to it give this seven Doras out of ten. Again, even though I liked it and had fun with it's meta jokes, this is not meant for adults unless they have some nostalgia or even at least some interest. It weird to think that the CGI Lion King remake was bad while a live action Dora the Explorer was better then expected. I suppose it's earned the right to sing "We did it" 88 out of 111 found this helpful. Was this review helpful? Sign in to vote.

Permalink 7/10 A fun summer adventure film for kids that's also fun for adults. The Plot is a wholly ridiculous story ripped from multiple Tarzan movies of the 40's and 50's. But go with old Dora Madelyn Miranda and Diego Malachi Barton are having fun growing up in the jungle with their academic parents. At least, you assume Diego's parents are there somewhere... this is all very vague!. Dora's parents - Cole Michael Peña and Elena Eva Longoria - are explorers on a lifelong mission to discover the lost Inca city of Parapata. Parapata is famed to be crammed with gold - "more than all the rest of the world's gold put together".But Dad makes clear that they are not in it for the financial benefit the motto is explorers = good; treasure hunters = Dora's idyllic childhood is rocked when Diego has to return to civilization and she has to grow up alone with her forwards 10 years and Dora has grown. Now as Isabela Moner, she discovers a vital clue to Parapata's location. But this signals a change for Dora, since she is not allowed on the expedition and must go to a far wilder place to join Diego, now Jeff Wahlberg nephew of Mark in an LA Mum and Dad are not the only ones on the trail of Parapata's treasures, and together with new friends, the spiky "mean-girl" Sammy Madeleine Madden and the nerdy astronomy geek Randy Nicholas Coombe, they must mount a rescue mission that takes them.... you'll NEVER guess where..!The film is a blast for kids, and probably suitable for emotionally robust kids of all ages. Nobody actually dies, despite falling unfathomably long distances onto rocks! However, the film also pulls off that great and welcome trick by dropping in enough jokes for parents to be entertained. "Yumm... delicioso!" says young Dora. Then breaking the fourth wall "Can YOU say delicioso?". Fleabag-style this confuses the hell out of Mum and Dad. Cole says to Elena, "Don't worry... she'll grow out of it". And fortunately, she does before the joke becomes tiresome!There's no warning about drug-taking, since the hallucinogenic scene with exploding flowers will go right over young kid's heads. But I found it very amusing!There are also some fun "fish out of water" high school scenes. We've seen many of these before with the likes of Spider-Man, but here they are light-touch and things get back into the jungle, they take on a much whackier angle. It's all very "Indiana Jones and the Crystal Skull", but without the crushing disappointment! But again, kids will love the puzzle-solving and the "Mummy-ish" gothic humour. The only part of this that I think might disturb young kids is a quicksand scene, that parents might like to pre-warn youngsters that everything will work out fine!Holding the whole film together like a little Duracell Bunny of vitality is 18-year old Isabela Moner, who is a genuine talent, honed in the Nickelodeon studios. She was impressive in the above average "Instant Family", and I predict she will go onto great things over the next 10 a "Pointless" answer from the cast is Benicio del Toro as the voice of "Swiper", a bizarrely talking and poorly-disguised fox! This probably makes more sense to those who know the original kid's cartoon!Even more annoying is Dora's strangely multi-coloured monkey Boots... the Jar Jar Binks of the film, who might amuse very young children but probably not many other Thoughts Here's a film that is not trying to be anything other than a fun and much needed summer outing for families. Disney used to do this sort of live-action family film thing so well in the 70's and 80's, before they got obsessed with pointless recreations of their cartoon director is James Bobin, who's formerly directed a number of the Muppet movies, and this movie breathes with the same sense of anarchic fun without being too up film occasionally makes you cringe, with some dreadfully and deliberately naff songs, but I enjoyed it and for the right audience kids 8 to 12 I think they'll have a blast.For the full graphical review, please check out One Mann's Movies on this new-fangled internet thing, or else on Facebook... whatever the earth that is.

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?

Dora and the Lost City of Gold is a live-action film based on the Nickelodeon animation series Dora the Explorer. This live-action film is directed by James Bobin, the director of Muppets Most Wanted and Alice Through the Looking Isabela Moner has spent most of her life exploring the jungle with her parents. Now that Dora is going to high school for the first time, she has to get used to this different way of life. When her parents are suddenly missing, Dora has to go on an adventure with famous friends and some of her new classmates to discover what happened to her parents. For this they have to solve the mystery behind the lost city of is an entertaining film for children who are familiar with the animation version of Dora the Explorer and for parents who have seen this animation together with their children. The film is more fun for children, because the story can come across as somewhat predictable or obvious thanks to the simple elaboration for adult viewers. The film looks a bit like a children's version of an Indiana Jones or Tom Raider film. Animation fans can also see or hear certain hints and references in this film that refer to the animation series. For people who are not so or not at all familiar with the Dora animation series, it may take some getting used to understanding how the fictional world of film effects of the film are also more at the child level, because adult viewers can see earlier where CGI or a green screen is used in the film. Some CGI characters such as Boots Dora her friendly monkey or Zwieber the stealing fox don't seem credible to adult viewers. For children who are fans of the animation and who are familiar with these characters, it is nice to see them again in the Moner appears good and credible in this film as Dora. She looks a lot like a live-action version of Dora because of the clothes and her appearance. With her acting work she carries the film for the young viewers. She also knows how to fill the film with her actions and reaction in the film. For older viewers, Michael Peña manages to provide some comical moments, but because his character goes missing, he soon disappears from the film. For example, as an older viewer you have to watch a film that is mainly filled with humor and a story for younger viewers. 31 out of 54 found this helpful. Was this review helpful? Sign in to vote. Permalink 6/10 some surprising fun Dora lives with her parents Eva Longoria, Michael Peña in the jungle as they search for the lost Incan city of Parapata. She's a six year old with her backpack, map, monkey friend Boots, and cousin Diego while fending off the swiping fox Swiper. Ten years later, her parents send her to to live with her cousin Diego's family and socialize with regular kids. She is a fish out of water. Diego is embarrassed to be around her. Randy is the school nerd. Sammy is the hated overachiever. During a museum trip, the four outsiders are forced to be in a group. Treasure hunters kidnap Dora along with the three others and transport them back to the jungle. They plan to trade Dora to her parents for the lost city and its treasures. The kids are rescued by Alejandro who claims to be a friend of Dora's not expecting much from this movie. For the IP, I expected a kids movie with kids. I still think six year old Dora and Diego could have some great adventures in the jungle as a family film. It's the way I would want for a Dora movie. From the trailer, the movie sets out with a teenager Dora. It would have been more interesting for her to explore the concrete jungle. So, the movie is going a third way. It has its funny moments. Dora's unrelenting cheerfulness is awkwardly funny in a couple of scenes. The four kids have some good chemistry. This is fine but I don't see it expanding into a bigger franchise. It has no chance of being the next Harry Potter. I doubt that this one can generate a sequel. 5 out of 7 found this helpful. Was this review helpful? Sign in to vote. Permalink 6/10 Surprisingly good and entertaining... Well, I had a vague idea about whom Dora the Explorer was from a few glances on the TV when my son have been flipping through the children shows. So I sat down to watch this 2019 live action rendering of Dora the Explorer with my 9 year old out that the movie was actually better than I had expected to be. I had expected this to be a children's movie, but it is actually a family movie, because there is something even for parents and adults to enjoy in the movie. So whatever beforehand assumptions I had about what I was in for was definitely put to rest at the hands of director James about this as being sort of a light-hearted Indiana Jones adventure for the children and the family, and just take out the Nazis from the equation. Actually, the storyline in "Dora and the Lost City of Gold" was actually rather enjoyable, and the story was captivating and the good pacing of the story made it a very entertaining movie to sit had a good ensemble of actors and actresses to portray the various roles, and Isabela Moner, playing Dora, really carried the movie quite well. It was sort of fun to realize that it was Benicio Del Toro whom voiced Swiper and Danny Trejo that voiced Boots. And they also had the likes of Michael Peña and Temuera Morrison in the movie as was more than genuinely entertained and surprised with this movie, and it was definitely well worth sitting down with my son to watch.

Looked almost like all the females were wearing body armor to make sure there was nothing pointy. Many of the characters were caricatures, and that was alright, it's based on a cartoon. My few gripes were from an adult perspective. It could have had a little more overt humor. It had quite a bit, but it was toned down. And - ok, it's fantasy, but the ending in the temple stepped over the line on silly. Target audience 13 to 16, and they achieved that by making Dora suddenly 18ish. Oh, and Boy! did she have a pound of pancake on. The persistent close-ups really highlighted that. Oh well, little stuff. Lightweight fluff. Thumbs up. 19 out of 33 found this helpful.

TheCGI is occasionally shoddy, too. This shouldn’t bother a child audience, though, and the film succeeds in not outstaying its welcome. It doesn’t deserve to rub shoulders with the likes of Paddington, but Dora and the Lost City of Gold is a proper kids’ film that all ages can get enjoyment from. Considering how much of a flop this While most of us groan whenever yet another adaptation is announced, we’re entering a whole new era of them. Whereas studios would throw so many different incarnations of popular properties at the wall to see what stuck in the past few decades sometimes with wildly different tones, we’re now at the point where said studios are sick of losing tens of millions of dollars, rebooting the same characters ten times over. Instead, why not throw a decent amount of change in Dora’s case, $40 million dollars at a project to get it right the first time pleasing existing fans and garnering new ones in the process. At least then there’s room to build. Dora and the Lost City of Gold does just that, taking the decidedly very G-rated cartoon and morphing it into a slightly more grown-up PG live-action adaptation. Eva Longoria, Michael Peña, and Isabela Moner in Dora and the Lost City of Gold 2019 The setup seems like it merits those same groans but quickly evolves. The gist is that Dora’s parents Michael Peña, Eva Longoria, who have homeschooled her all her life and trained her I the ways of an adventurer, send her off to public high school. This is exactly what I’m referring to above there was a chance that in decades past, the entire film would take place in said school, groan-worthy jokes and all. Thankfully they only use this period to set up Dora’s character, which all feels endearing in a way that’s extremely Elf2003-like. Dora congratulates her cafeteria staff for making something as amazing as mac & cheese in the same way Buddy celebrates “the world’s best cup of coffee,” but with an actual child-like innocence played straightly by Isabela Moner as our titular hero. The production team kind of doesn’t let up from there, as there are many cartoon aspects spliced into The Lost City of Gold’s DNA, including two literal cartoons Boots the monkey and Swiper the Fox. And by the way, when Swiper appears on-screen and just kind of talks, with zero explanation or magical lore-based reason, it’s incredible. The same goes for a surprise that I won’t mention here all of which help prevent Dora from being an edgy reboot or something that barely resembles its source material. Isabela Moner in Dora and the Lost City of Gold 2019 I’m glad they don’t dwell on the whole fish out of water thing for long, as the school motif is short-lived. We get to see Dora in a classroom setting, briefly at a dance, and then she and her friends are whisked away into a PG-Tomb Raider with constant mentions of death and some semi-harrowing situations. The second set crew has a chance to shine here with some great aerial shots, adding a nice element of practicality to a film with two computer-generated major characters. Don’t get too excited though, as this is still a family production filled to the brim with hokey jokes and performances of varying quality. A lot of the big talent is relegated to part-time roles, and while Moner is up to the task of carrying the film, she doesn’t get a lot of help especially from most of the adult cast. There are moments where they really commit with some jokes that elevate it above reactions that just involve kids snorting in a theatre, and there are parts where you’re kind of scratching your head wondering why they went the way they did. Dora probably isn’t going to sway any adults who aren’t into films aimed at younger audiences, but for everyone else, it’ll go down as one of the better family films and adaptations really in recent years. Dora is a great character and they did her justice.Havingspent most of her life exploring the jungle with her parents, nothing could prepare Dora for her most dangerous adventure ever: high school.

Nickelodeon’s Dora the Explorer, an educational animated series for children that ran from 2000 to 2006, shouldn’t work as a live-action Hollywood remake. Weirdly, this sprightly, self-aware action-adventure movie does. Director James Bobin and co-writer Nicholas Stoller launch with the cartoon’s memorably bouncy theme tune. Within minutes, a six-year-old Dora Madelyn Miranda is breaking the fourth wall and asking the audience if they can say “delicioso” in the original TV show, Dora would teach viewers Spanish words and phrases. Dora’s simian compadre Boots is computer-animated and integrated into the film’s ever-so-slightly surreal live-action world without has grown up in the rainforests of Peru, home-schooled by her parents a zoologist and an archeologist, played by Eva Longoria and Michael Peña respectively. They are explorers, the film insists, not treasure hunters, in one of its gentle swipes at colonialism. Now 16 years old, Dora Isabela Moner is being sent to the city, aka Los Angeles, to attend high school with her cousin Diego Jeff Wahlberg while her parents search for Parapata, the lost Incan city of gold. A relentlessly cheery brainiac with a propensity to burst into song, she soon earns the nickname Dorka, turning up to a themed school dance dressed as her “favourite star” – the sun. Moner is a magnetic, sunny screen presence. Seeing Dora navigate the wilds of high school would’ve been entertaining enough, but a kidnapping places her and her classmates back in the this section of the film, there are Jungle Run-style mazes and puzzles, a farting bog of quicksand and a song about poo. A field of giant pink flowers precedes a trippy, animated interlude. Benicio del Toro voices a masked trickster fox. The result is goofily charming and a rare, age-appropriate children’s film in which the adults are silly and the kids, especially the girls, are a trailer for Dora and the Lost City of Gold.Ourheroine is an adolescent Dora (Isabela Moner), now 16 years old.

Review of Dora and the Lost City of Gold on You may be dreading the prospect of having to schlep with your kids to the multiplex to see “Dora and the Lost City of Gold.” The idea of sitting through a big-screen version of the long-running Nickelodeon series “Dora the Explorer” probably sounds like pure torture—even more facile messaging, rudimentary animation and sing-songy delivery for the littlest viewers. Sure, the show means well, and its emphasis on Latinx culture and bilingual education is essential, but a little goes a long way. At home, you can tune out, check your phone, fold some laundry, do anything else besides actually watch an entire episode of “Dora.” But I am here to tell you that you will be shockingly entertained. “Dora and the Lost City of Gold” manages to ride a fine line between being true to the characters and conventions of the series and affectionately skewering them. Director James Bobin and co-writer Nicholas Stoller, who previously collaborated on the most recent “Muppets” movies, achieve a similar sense of humor and tonal balance here. They’re making fun of the inherently surreal nature of the show without tipping all the way over into parody or cruelty. They recognize how insane it is that Dora’s friends include a talking backpack and map, for example, or that her chief adversary in the jungle, Swiper, is a fox wearing a bandit’s mask. But they also see the importance of celebrating a strong, confident little girl with a kind heart, resourceful mind and fearless spirit. Pulling off this tricky feat at the center of it all is the actress playing Dora herself, the magnetic Isabela Moner, whose performance is reminiscent of Amy Adams’ thoroughly delightful work in “Enchanted.” She’s giddy and guileless—borderline manic at times—and she has an unflappably sunny demeanor no matter the scenario. Whether she’s encountering a deadly, poisonous frog or digging a hole to help a friend relieve herself in the wilderness, she’s got a can-do attitude and likely a song for every occasion. But Moner is also in on the joke, bringing expert comic timing and just the right amount of a knowing wink to these perky proceedings. Following supporting roles in films including “Transformers The Last Knight” and “Sicario Day of the Soldado,” this is a star-making performance—so much so that it makes you wish the whole film were as good as she is. Dora has grown up in the Peruvian rainforest with her zoologist mother Eva Longoria and archaeologist father Michael Peña. It’s an idyllic existence that has sharpened her wits and fostered her curiosity, but it hasn’t exactly made her street smart. In fact, she’s never really had any other friends her age—or human friends, period—besides her cousin Diego, whom she hasn’t seen since she was a little girl. Now that she’s a teenager, her parents have decided to send her to Los Angeles to attend high school with Diego Jeff Wahlberg while they go on a dangerous mission to find the elusive, mysterious Parapata, the lost city of gold. Adriana Barraza, part of the strong Latinx cast, brings grace to the role of Dora and Diego’s abuelita. Dora’s fish-out-of-water antics are quickly and consistently amusing, whether she’s offering a cheery hello in English and Spanish to every stranger on the street or navigating the pitfalls of public-school adolescence. She’s so darn innocent and earnest, you can’t help but root for her—or at least hope she’ll survive. Wahlberg brings a deadpan humor as the increasingly mortified Diego, while Madeleine Madden plays the bossy queen bee who’s threatened by her smarts and Nicholas Coombe is the self-deprecating nerd who’s enamored of them. If only the story had remained in There’s plenty of material to mine there as Dora strives to find her way in such a vastly different environment while still staying true to herself. But the script from Stoller and Matthew Robinson contrives to send Dora, Diego, and their friends back to South America for a series of “Indiana Jones”-lite adventures. There, they team up with the frantic and grating Eugenio Derbez as a fellow explorer who’s also searching for Parapata. A series of “jungle puzzles,” as Coombes’ character calls them, causes the film to fall into a steady and episodic rhythm, which is a bit of a letdown compared to the lively and subversive nature of the first half. But if you’ve ever wondered what to do if you should find yourself stuck in quicksand, Dora has the answer to the dilemma—and every other one, for that matter.

Adapun, panduan cara download film Dora And The Lost City Of Gold via google play, Isabela Moner deftly updates the animated heroine in a film that, after a shaky start, hits the right notes of fun and cultural specificity Paramount When “Dora the Explorer” made her debut on Nickelodeon in 2000, she not only became the first animated Latina character in a leading role but also birthed what would become the longest-running American TV show that featured characters speaking Spanish. The show is still running on Nickelodeon with new episodes. Nineteen years later, Dora gets the live-action treatment in “Dora and the Lost City of Gold,” and despite an awkward first act, the film harkens back to the family-adventure genre that today’s parents can recall from their own childhoods. Dora Isabela Moner, “Instant Family” and her parents Michael Peña and Eva Longoria have lived in the jungles of South America for all of Dora’s life. The jungle is her home, her school and her playground, and like many young teenagers she runs through her life documenting everything with a GoPro strapped on, speaking to an invisible audience about the wonders of exploring the rain forest. For over a decade, in between homeschooling Dora and creating a family life in the jungle, her professor parents have been searching for the lost Incan city of Parapata and have just found the key to its location somewhere in the jungles of Peru. Watch Video New 'Dora and the Lost City of Gold' Trailer Ends on Fart Jokes Wanting to keep Dora safe while they set off on a months-long exploration and also worried that perhaps she is a little socially inept, having never been around kids her own age, they send her to stay with her once-best friend, her cousin Diego Jeff Wahlberg, and his parents in Los Angeles, with only one piece of advice “Just be yourself.” And she tries. But the dangers of living among deadly animals and insects is a piece of cake compared to dealing with other teenagers. Feeling more isolated than ever before, Dora keeps in touch with her parents via a two-way radio that they use to update their daughter with their latest coordinates whenever they can. Suddenly, after months of constant communication, her parents go radio silent, which doesn’t alarm Dora until she, Diego and two kids from school end up getting kidnapped by booty-hunting mercenaries who want to use Dora to track her parents and, ultimately, to lead them to Parapata’s long-lost treasure. Watch Video 'Dora and the Lost City of Gold' Trailer Shows the Explorer Facing the Jungle of High School The entire first act of “Dora and the Lost City of Gold” plays as though screenwriters Nicholas Stoller “Night School” and Matthew Robinson “Monster Trucks” couldn’t decide what they wanted the film to be Is it coming-of-age story? A fish-out-of-water tale? A by-the-book play on the original TV series? Or is this supposed to be “Mean Girls” for Gen Z? The tone is so uneven at times that the Spanish which Peña, Longoria and Moner all speak fluently sounds forced — as if the screenwriters wanted to make a statement “See? This is a Latino family!” It’s only once the script remembers that the character started out as a little girl who loves to explore new places — and who just happens to be a Latina — that the film begins to breathe, making room to embrace zany characters like the mysterious Alejandro Eugenio Derbez, the fox Swiper voiced by Benicio Del Toro and the monkey Boots voiced by Danny Trejo, among others. Also Read Eva Longoria on ABC's 'Grand Hotel' and Flipping the Upstairs, Downstairs Genre on Its Head It’s then that director James Bobin shifts the film into something that simultaneously honors the original show while waxing nostalgic on 1980s kid-friendly adventure films like “The Goonies,” “Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom,” and even “Honey, I Shrunk the Kids.” Thanks to his experience directing both “The Muppets” and “Muppets Most Wanted,” Bobin is no stranger to creating a world where it’s completely natural to have a bandana-wearing fox roaming around swiping things for a living. But much credit is due to Oscar-winning production designer Dan Hennah “Lord of The Rings”, who creates a South American jungle that can both serve family adventure and bend to a hyper-reality with an animated monkey on a whim. While the entire ensemble is fun to watch, it’s Moner who sells “Dora and the Lost City of Gold.” I’m no “Dora” expert, but I did spend many hours a day oh, so many watching the animated series with my daughter during her toddler and preschool years, so there’s an emotional connection between the character and my daughter’s childhood that I wasn’t certain Moner could maintain. Also Read Michael Peña to Play Mr Roarke in 'Fantasy Island' Film The biggest challenge of an actor in any live-action update of an animated character is to make an audience that is already loyal to the original fall in love with a newer rendition. And that’s exactly what Moner does; her Dora has the DNA of everything that made the original so special while offering a fresh take for newer generations experiencing the character for the first time. She captures Dora’s wide-eyed innocence with aplomb while also allowing her to be just a teenager. In the second half, the film not only deploys Spanish but also Quechua, an indigenous language of the Quechua peoples who live mainly in Peru. It may be a small thing, and one only someone of Peruvian heritage like myself might catch, but if Quechua hadn’t been spoken by the indigenous people Dora meets in the film, I am not so sure I would have been convinced by the story. Offering indigenous representation, especially in language, opens eyes to the origins of Latinx cultures, free from an Anglo or Westernized perspective, allowing characters like Dora and her family to become something Latinos of all ages can revere and enjoy.
Dora a teenage explorer, leads her friends on an adventure to save her parents and solve the mystery behind a lost city of gold. In “Dora and the Lost City of Gold,” we accompany our intrepid heroine, Dora (Isabela Moner), as she traverses the jungles of South America with her friends as they search for her kidnapped parents.
Dora’s grown up a bit since her seemingly perennial childhood through eight seasons on TV beginning in 2000 and her briefer tween years starting in 2009, but the audience will remain largely hormone-free for her big-screen debut in Dora and the Lost City of Gold. Except for some of the jargon and the interracial cast, this is a film whose sensibility and aesthetics lie squarely — in both senses of the word — in the 1950s. Imparting the air of having been highly sanitized and thoroughly rinsed, this late summer Paramount release is squeaky clean and unhip to an unusual degree, its commercial success resting all but exclusively on a built-in fan base. The Bottom Line A story about hormonal teens aimed at little kids. Release date Aug 09, 2019 Something seems off and far too Hollywood-ish from the very beginning, where we find the 16-year-old Dora the earnestly conscientious, rather mature and nothing if not lively Isabela Moner living with her zoologist mom Eva Longoria and archeologist dad Michael Pena in a deep jungle abode so luxurious and elaborate that it looks like something rich tourists would pay a few grand a night to stay in. Like Tarzan, Dora grew up in the jungle with animals as best friends but, unlike the fictional vine-swinger, she’s being sent to to study at Silverlake High. Dora has relatives to stay with, including good-looking cousin and all-around too-cool-for-school Diego Jeff Wahlberg, nephew of Mark. But she’s quickly deemed a weirdo, to Diego’s embarrassment, and piling on is the conceited, condescending Sammy Madeleine Madden, an intimidator who does all she can to make the newcomer’s life miserable at school. The only guy who takes to her is ultimate nerd Randy Nicholas Coombe, and it isn’t long before this ill-matched foursome finds itself transported from the Natural History Museum back to Dora’s parents’ place in Peru to renew the search for the titular destination. Of course, a bad guy, Alejandro Eugenio Derbez, worms his way into the mix, but by now it’s quite clear that the filmmakers never intend to try to present any real challenges or formidable foes that would generate genuine suspense or dramatic excitement. Although this franchise relies upon preteens for its core audience, upping the ages of its protagonists to a more hormonal demographic makes one imagine that prospective viewers have been exposed to at least mildly rugged Indiana Jones or Transformers-like action, to the extent that more eventful and exciting scenes could have been served up. In the action and suspense department, what director James Bobin The Muppets, Muppets Most Wanted, Alice Through the Looking Glass delivers here feels more like 1950s kiddie television. In essence, every dramatic goal is achieved far too easily, every opponent is ultimately made of straw. The characters are never truly challenged, as if the filmmakers are afraid that any credible peril might prove too frightening for some little kid. There’s nothing remotely akin to Bambi’s mother’s death here to disturb any youngster’s sleep. What keeps things alive, up to a point, is the imperturbable attitude of the titular heroine, who is invested with try-and-stop-me spirit by Moner, who’s actually 18 and looks it despite preventive measures. The same goes for Wahlberg, who’s 19. There’s a palpable gap you can’t help but notice between the essentially innocent, borderline-pubescent nature of the leading characters and the film itself, and the more confident and mature vibes emanating from the leading actors. The director seems to be trying to keep the hormones at bay, but there are some things you just can’t disguise, perhaps human nature first and foremost. Dora seems committed to projecting a pre-sexualized version of youth, while throbbing unacknowledged beneath the surface is something a bit more real, its presence rigorously ignored. To be believed, this story should have been set in 1955. Production company Burr!

In this live-action continuation of the Nickelodeon cartoon, Dora the Explorer, there are countless references to the original cartoons within minutes. Echoes of the original songs and Dora’s asides to the camera, breaking the fourth wall, demonstrates the []At first blush, a feature film based on the Nick Jr. cartoon Dora the Explorer seems like a non-starter. The show, designed to help preschoolers grasp Spanish-language terms for English phrases, doesn't scream out for the cinematic treatment, and definitely not the live-action feature treatment. Yet such a film now exists Dora and the Lost City of Gold both manages to broadly acknowledge its inspiration while cutting its own path as a tween-friendly version of Indiana Jones. It's a surprisingly funny blend of fish-out-of-water comedy and adventure, even if the familiarity is hard to of a brief prologue, the Dora we spend time with is no little kid — she's a 16-year old who's being unhappily uprooted from her home in the jungle by her loving parents Eva Longoria and Michael Pena, who go off on a journey of their own as they encourage Dora to explore what it's like to be an average high-schooler in Los Angeles. Dora's expertise in the jungles of South America, though, leave her ill-equipped to handle the vagaries of high school. Her ebullient spirit is at odds with the dismissive nature of the average high-schooler, as represented by her cousin Diego Jeff Wahlberg. However, she, Diego, and two other high-schoolers are soon abducted while on a field trip, forced by a series of treasure hunters to find a mythical city of gold...the same one her parents are searching signs of an unexpectedly goofy movie are present before you even meet Dora — after the studio logo, there's a pre-title card warning that the film we're about to see is mostly accurate, except for the implication that foxes like to swipe things. Perhaps the strangest, most off-kilter casting choice here is a loopy-sounding Benicio del Toro as the sneaky Swiper. Director James Bobin and co-writer Nicholas Stoller collaborated on the two Muppet movies of the 2010s, and a similar sense of wry charm is present through Dora and the Lost City of Gold. The film mostly sidesteps the way the TV series looks or sounds, but there are a couple of goofy, fourth-wall-breaking gags where Dora asks us to repeat certain phrases to no avail. And Dora's struggles in the big city to balance her own jungle-driven savvy with, for example, the fact that no other high-schooler would bring a flare with them to class make for a good amount of the four kids are stuck in the jungle, they're paired with the rubbery-faced Eugenio Derbez, as Alejandro, a linguistics professor with ties to Dora's folks. Derbez's shtick varies between seeming mildly funny and mildly exhausting; the few times he gets to do all the heavy lifting, the comedy feels a bit forced. There's one specific gag involving quicksand that, depending on your mileage, may make you laugh your head off, or may make you wish that the scene would just end. As in the rest of the film, the charm largely lies with the younger actors. As the teenage Dora, Isabela Moner is the right mix of winning and a bit weird. Though the script co-written by Stoller and Matthew Robinson leads Dora to a predictable place of accepting herself for who she is even as she gains friends, Moner makes the journey feel less rote than unique. Wahlberg — who is Mark's nephew — is a nice foil for Moner, as the teenage Diego can't decide if he's charmed or perpetually embarrassed by his enthusiastic fun of Dora and the Lost City of Gold lies in the journey, not the destination. Once the eponymous mysterious location is discovered, because of course it is, the film becomes a most remarkable riff on the Indiana Jones franchise. The phrase "most remarkable" here is meant to imply that Dora becomes either a loving homage or a straight-up rip-off of Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade. Since both The Last Crusade and The Lost City of Gold were released by Paramount Pictures, I suppose we'll stick with homage. Fans of the third film in the Harrison Ford-led franchise will recognize...well, a lot of its climax here, down to similar punchlines even if the bad guys don't meet deliciously nasty and the Lost City of Gold is charming enough, even as its conclusion smacks of overfamiliarity. A live-action/CGI mix inspired by a preschool animated show doesn't seem like the kind of movie that would even be remotely tolerable. Yet a winning lead performance, coupled with a slightly cheeky and anarchic storytelling style, are enough to withstand plotting that owes an unpayable debt to the most famous movie adventurer of the modern age. Dora and the Lost City of Gold has no right being as charming and fun as it is, but there's nothing wrong with a pleasant surprise in the dog days of summer./Film Rating 6 out of 10

Now a young adult, the former kid explorer named Dora is big on adventure and wildlife in the new live-action film Dora and the Lost City of Gold. Mostly getting rid of the childish themes of the hit animated show, this now teenage Dora journeys to the dark side of the jungle in order to save the day and her family while navigating traps, villains and a water slide that is eerily reminiscent of The Goonies. No matter how action-packed director James Bobin The Muppets tried to make this adaptation, it never grows past a five-year-old level, despite some phenomenal set pieces. In other words, the film takes no chances on being edgy or growing up with Dora herself, instead, the film relies on the safe way of delivering dialogue and cartoonish action sequences that would only excite super young fans of the show. The 16-year-old Dora Isabela Moner lives with her parents Eva Longoria and Michael Pena in the jungle inside a luxurious jungle abode. Even though she's been raised in the wild by her animal friends and parents, she is set to Los Angeles to a city high school. She doesn't take to city life very well due to her awkward know-it-all nature, but she makes a friend or three and eventually Dora and her three classmates are sent back to Dora's parent's place in Peru to search for The City of Lost Gold. That's where Alejandro iconic actor Eugenio Derbez enters the picture as the flamboyant bad guy that never seems to be an enemy, but more of a slight nuisance. I know themes are light-hearted in the film, but to amp up any sort of conflict or suspense, the villain should be as good as its protagonist, which it never is here. Dora and the Lost City of Gold is not a good film. Each bit of adventure, drama, and suspense or lack thereof falls flat and vanishes immediately into thin air. Every henchman or foe that crosses paths with the teens is easily knocked down with no real fight or anxiety. The animated Lion King movie is more likely to give kids nightmares than this film. In addition to that, the performances border on silly self-awareness and being over-the-top in every scene. It becomes tiresome quickly. The one element that has worked well in the film is the elaborate and practical set pieces, which look top-notch and beautiful. The jungle never looked so bright and prosperous before with big stone structures, tons of trees and wildlife, and other mysteries along with way. It brought that old nostalgic feel of real-life sets back to the films and left a lot of the CGI at the door, with the exception of Dora's animal friends. For trying to be a hip, young adult feature film and furthering the story of Dora, this Lost City of Gold never pushes any boundaries, let alone step within 50 feet of them. The result is a movie that wants to attract all ages, especially the teen audiences, but could only muster a toddler's attention span for a few minutes. It's painful to get through and that's unfortunate because this could've been that start of a bigger franchise with a little grit.

Filmterbaru dari Paramount dan Nickelodeon ini akan memberikan tampilan baru dalam bentuk Live-action pada kartun favorit ini. Film Dora and The Lost City of Gold ini akan mengikuti cerita Dora (Isabela Moner), yang telah menghabiskan sebagian besar hidupnya menjelajahi hutan bersama orang tuanya.Swiper No Swiping Dora and the Lost City of Gold feels like a niche film for a very specific audience. If you’re part of that audience, this is likely to be a wildly entertaining and hilarious family adventure. What it does, it does incredibly well with plenty of in-jokes from the cartoon and a handful of well written, goofy jokes that help keep the tone suitably light and adventurous. However, the lack of explanation around key Dora the Explorer concepts like the map and Swiper, along with very basic character arcs make this a film designed specifically for families and children who have grown up with Dora, rather than the average movie-goer. Beginning with a brief prologue including Dora and cousin Diego, the film skips forward in time as we see Dora separated from her cousin where he leaves the rainforest and heads off for the concrete jungle in Los Angeles. Growing into an adventurous but naive young woman, Dora is taken away from the rainforest at the request of her parents to stay with cousin Diego, who’s very much acclimatized to the harsh realities of the real world. Dressed in bright, vibrant colours, our naive young explorer finds herself struggling to adapt to this harsh, new world before being thrown back into the jungle again to save her parents from a greater threat that appears. From here the film sees Dora and a handful of misfits band together to try and save Dora’s parents, all whilst navigating treacherous traps, quicksand and a number of other nasty additions to the jungle. Dora and the Lost City of Gold reminds me of old family-orientated adventure films like Flubber, Jumanji and Small Soldiers. The concepts may be different but that cheesy style combined with self-aware comedy and basic characterisation shine through and give the film some depth and personality. Dora settles into its groove early on and throughout the film, the pacing is perfectly poised between fast action pieces and slower, comedic segments. The balance is handled really well here and throughout this 100 minute film, Dora never feels like it drags on unnecessarily. If you’ve grown up with kids obsessed with Dora the Explorer, Nickelodeon’s latest animated adaptation is for you. Instead of trying to appeal to everyone and failing spectacularly, Dora defiantly sticks to its target market and is all the stronger for it. It’s a classic, fun-filled family adventure with plenty of goofy jokes and well-written action pieces to keep things interesting. It’s certainly not for everyone and at times the special effects do feel cheaper than they perhaps should for the big screen. However, there’s enough jokes and subtle nods toward the source material here to make this the perfect example of how to adapt an animated children’s show whilst keeping the integrity and spirit of the original in check. Parents and kids will certainly love this but perhaps everyone else may not take to it quite so fondly.
