Legends of the Hidden Temple

Siblings Sadie, Noah, and Dudley are with their parents at a jungle resort. Noah is sure that the temple is real while everybody is sure that it's simply a theme park. Tour guide Kirk Fogg gives Noah a map to the hidden temple. The three children get trapped inside the temple and they must search for two halves of a pendant to put everything right.

What kind of parents let their three kids walk off without supervision? These are exactly the kind of kids that would get into trouble. They're dumb and self-possessed. Am I a bad person to suggest that they deserve to lose their kids? It would be better to have the kids be classmates on a school trip. The teacher can lose track of her class. The CGI is relatively good for TV movie. The kids are pretty good with good chemistry. The sets are more theme park than real jungle temple. Overall, it's a good enough kiddie adventure. This is fine for Nickelodeon and fine for young kids.

I'am an unabashed fan of the game show, and to this day, I will never tire of it, no matter how many times I see each episode, it's just too good of a game show, balancing both mind and body into the mix for an exciting adventure that's never the same twice. While I was waiting for some episodes to come on DVD (I'm using various video websites to satisfy my cravings) to last forever in my future family, I heard about this movie coming soon. I was a little skeptical how the creators would handle it all in a movie, but they pulled it off nicely. The premise is very much compatible with the format of the show and I much enjoyed not only the return of Kirk Fogg and Olmec (voiced again by Dee Bradley Baker!) but several other homages as well that I won't reveal, you have to see it for yourself. It's not perfect, the irresponsible parent cliché, some implausibilities (a kid who can understand monkey language being one), and and preposterousness (the native people of Olmec's temple speaking English than some native language), but the good far outweighs the bad. I do hope they included episodes of the show when it comes out on DVD. Even if they didn't I'm not hesitating to grab it!

I watched legend of the hidden temple the tv show when I was a kid, I'm 33 years old now and after watching the movie I was impressed. My childhood memories brought back to life with this movie. Good job! The Movie was Great they bring back the original host of the show Kirk Fogg my favorite host and Dee Bradley Baker as the original voice for Olmec. The Movie was Great they bring back the original host of the show Kirk Fogg my favorite host and Dee Bradley Baker as the original voice for Olmec. Isabela Moner is my favorite artist!. Well she's growing on me but still Thank You Nickelodeon, I also love Nickelodeon!...

I've never seen the television game show that this is based on, but 'Legends of the Hidden Temple' makes for OK viewing.

It's a decent adventure story featuring some semi-interesting scenarios, the battling brothers being the overall key to it all. I'm sure families will have a fun time watching this, despite it being aimed towards kids.

Isabela Moner is in this playing Sadie. I knew she's good at the craft after seeing her excel in 'Instant Family', she's definitely the standout here; though Colin Critchley and Jet Jurgensmeyer give fair performances too. Dee Bradley Baker's voice works well for King Olmec, also.

One for the family, for sure. Lastly, credit to them for making it a short watch - a full-blown production would've been superfluous.

Decent watch, won't watch again, can't really recommend.

For a movie based off a kids show from 30 years ago where children are so excited they can't put a 3 piece puzzle together, its about as good as it could be.

It allows for an interesting enough premise, but quickly becomes a cheap reference to the original show. The actual story line is touching, but not terribly substantial. I feel like I've seen the "disfunctional sibling relationship rectified due to a intense action situation" plenty of times, or maybe it's just so close to "I saved your life, you appreciate me now, so let's bang" trope.

For kids, I think this is fine, but its just not going to wow anyone.
