Dot et le Kangourou

This was one of my favorite movies when i was little. I think the first time i saw it, i was about 5 or 6, and my mom put it on after I got a happy-meal from McDonalds. I always wanted to watch the movie but cried every time at the end. This is definitely one of my favorite movies of my youth. It's an amazing cartoon adventure of a girl who leaves home and is befriended by a kangaroo.

I haven't seen this movie in maybe 17 years or more, but I would like to buy it. The animation is fantastic and is truly one of the better animated films even though it will now be outdated. I think its a fantastic story and should be rented and never forgotten. A seminal cartoon for me. -Aaron.

I remember seeing this movie as a child on HBO. I keep looking for a copy to rent or buy. It is the delightful story of a young girl(animated) who gets lost in the Australian outback(Live footage).

She is befriended by a group of animals who help her through the outback to find her way back home. Along the way she learns a bit about the history of the outback. Filled with some catchy songs and a great story, this movie rates high among my favorite children's movies. If you and your child get a chance to see this I highly recommend it

Oh my gosh this movie tops sad of all sad! All I remember of this movie was how traumatized I was as a child by it. Every time it was going to be on my family tried to keep me from seeing it but every once in a while I would catch a glimpse and make them let me watch it and then I would go into hysterics at the end. It would normally take about an hour and a half to settle me down, so I'm told, I would cry so hard that I would end up throwing up. I asked my friends, now in their mid twenties if they remembered this movie from childhood and they all said they did and they all remembered crying and such when they watched it as well. I can still remember poor dot screaming and crying for her kangaroo to come back to her after leaving her at her home and he never comes back! It was just horrible! Why would anyone make a movie so sad? geez!

Well I must agree I haven't seen this in a long time since I was five, but now after seeing it again I understood everything.

If you play close attention you might learn something, it's fun while it lasts though you gotta admit the scene when they sing about the bunyip is creepy especially the background music for it.

But the rest is very enjoyable but fair enough although it doesn't exactly have a happy ending and it's a bit heart-wrenching when you do I should know after seeing it again when we got to the end, I couldn't help it, it was so sad it made me and my sister cry. Well who wouldn't at seeing how much Dot misses her friend already...

But there's a moral for those after seeing the end don't be sad for all we know someday those two friends will meet again and she's not gone forever and would't want her friend sad plus she'll live in your heart no matter what.

That's all that matters out of all the scale it's very lovely movie I suggest if kids are gonna watch this watch it with their folks for support and understanding

As if the sounds and colours of the Australian bush aren't scary enough, the creepy rough animation over the old live action footage in the makes this one of those kids films that weird you out when you're not sure why.

I guess it's similar to Watership Down in it's beauty. As an adult watching, it's really quite a scary film, but when you're a child you simply don't pick up on what's so creepy about it.

I'm not sure that this film is worth watching unless you really love old, rough animated films of it's style. It's one of those movies that I watched all the time as a kid, and I still love it and get it out occasionally, but would someone who hadn't grown up with it understand? I'm not sure.

Dot is very annoying and her other adventures are simply crap (except, the gay mosquito in Dot and the Keeto still cracks me up.) I'm in love with the animation and sound of this film more than anything.
