Movie Description
IN THEATERS FEBRUARY 24, 2006


This fanciful tale is based on an old children's television series from England, THE MAGIC ROUNDABOUT.

The origins of the characters in DOOGAL stretch back to 1964 and a TV program called THE MAGIC ROUNDABOUT (or "Le Manège Enchanté" as its French creator Serge Danot called it). The show became a popular staple on British television, and this full-length movie is the first attempt to acquaint American audiences with Danot's magical world.


Zeebad (voiced by THE DAILY SHOW's Jon Stewart) is a recently escaped convict whose powers as a sorcerer are known throughout the land. While fleeing from prison, the embittered Zeebad decides to capture some mystical diamonds with the power to freeze the sun. Zeebad's devious dream is to freeze the entire globe as an act of revenge on those who imprisoned him. But he doesn't bank on the resilient forces of heroic canine Doogal (Daniel Tay) and his friends, a snail named Brian (William H. Macy), a hippie-ish rabbit called Dylan (Jimmy Fallon), and a loveable pink cow by the name of Ermintrude (Whoopi Goldberg). Together, they venture across the world in a desperate bid to find the ancient stones before the dastardly Zeebad gets his hands on them. Doogal and his friends scatter a few amusing references to popular culture into the plot as the story unfolds, and the animation is rendered in a style instantly familiar to fans of movies such as FINDING NEMO and HOODWINKED. Fans of the original television show who are looking for a fond, nostalgic experience won't find much to remind them of Danot's creation in DOOGAL, which is a fast-paced action romp aimed at a young audience. But for a new generation of fans this is a great way to get acquainted with a bunch of loveable characters who passed their 40th birthday on completion of the film.

    I enjoy watching movies with my toddler...some she gets excited about, me less so; others I look forward to - and this was one of those movies!! I grew up in the UK and enjoyed 'The Magic Roundabout" a beloved children's classic, and much later a cult show! Doogal is adapted from this cartoon and features all the same characters so I was interested in seeing this and sharing part of my childhood with her.....alas, this movie did not live up to my expectations and my toddler quickly went back to her Lego!!
    Initially my familiarity with the orginal show and the long list of stars that lend their voices to this movie - Jimmy Fallon, Whoopie Goldberg, William, H. Macy and the funny Jon Stewart - promised good things..but the movie just missed one key element - a good hook to draw the audience in !
    Sure, the movie had a premise - Doogal has a mission to complete in order to save his friends - and indeed the world against the spells of the evil Zeebad who has resurfaced and is out to cause strife. We, as the audience follow Doogal on this mission, but this is where we started to lose interest! The plot struggled, and often got sidetracked. It seemed to repeat itself in some areas ...and forget what the movie was about in others, to the point where we all switched off and did not care about the ending which was predictable!
    Maybe someone out there will enjoy this movie, but for us, it was not well thought out and did not engage us so for that, I have to give it a poor rating!
