Doug - il film

Not one of Disney's worst movies like Mulan (2020), Artemis Fowl, The Wild (2006), Underdog (2007), Mars Needs Moms, Strange Magic or the bad Disney direct to video sequels which are The Return Of Jafar to The Little Mermaid 3: Ariel's Beginning, it was based on the Disney cartoon named Doug and his pal Skeeter who need to find a monster that lurks in the lake of the ducks or something, the title is misleading, but at least the music is all right, not one of Disney's poor attempts to be funny, but i think it is one of the worst movies from 1999 along with South Park: Bigger, Longer and Uncut. I know that South Park: Bigger, Longer and Uncut is not from Disney, it's from Comedy Central but clearly is just a poorly written mess.

A few decent moments, but 'Doug's 1st Movie' is largely flat.

If you like the television series from Nickelodeon/Disney then you'll probably enjoy this, though for those who haven't - including me - it's a meh watch. The animation is average, while the voice cast are mostly fine but some are a little irritating. Plot-wise it's basic and rather predictable.

Tom McHugh (Doug) and Constance Shulman (Patti) are alright in their respective roles, though Fred Newman is kinda annoying as Skeeter. The film doesn't do anything to make you actually care for the characters, so I can cut the cast some slack in that regard.

There's not really much more to note. Some will like this, some won't... I can understand both sides to be fair. For me, though, it is all too slow.

I saw this movie when I was a kid. I grew up watching the Nickeleon Doug but didn't see much of the Disney Doug.

At first I seemed to enjoyed it from the first time seeing it.

But years later I didn't felt like watching it again.

Getting the VHS was a waist of money if I didn't bother in watching it again.

This has to do with Doug and Skeeter trying to solve there monster in the Lucky Duck Lake mystery. They encounter the monster who's more friendly than it seems. They were going to show it to the public but didn't bother since the creature would get captured and imprisoned. Mr. Bluff over hears about it and has sent out agents to locate the creature, blah blah blah.

I thought it be great bu it stank. Disney ruined Doug for the last time.

Those who only like the Nickeleon Doug keep away from this movie if you dislike the Disney Doug. It just isn't the same as it was from the early 90s.

I looked up this movie on Wikipedia a few weeks ago to see what it was about. When I read the plot summary, I honestly thought that somebody had trolled the page and typed in the weirdest s*** they could think of. Then, after checking IMDb's plot summary, I realized that it was ACTUALLY ABOUT A FRIENDLY MONSTER NAMED HERMAN MELVILLE.

And the funny thing about this: I actually DID see this in theaters when it came out (back in '99, which made me 9 years old at the time), but I literally had NO memory of this movie. I remember everything else I've ever seen in theaters, to some degree, but not this one.

The fact that this movie was SO ridiculous, yet SOOOOO forgettable is a testament to its quality. I was a fan of the show too (when it was on Nickelodeon, I hated what Disney did to it).

Btw, "Doug's FIRST Movie"? Obviously, that title isn't descriptive enough; should've put "and only" somewhere in that title...

I was looking forward to seeing this movie, but after finally watching it I was quite disappointed. There were some good parts, but it wasn't the best film I ever saw. It was strange and it felt like a weird mix between a movie or a special episode. I think it's a good thing Doug only made 1 movie and didn't make any more after that. I also wasn't very fond of Doug and Patti's relationship and felt like it left it open ended instead of actually resolving it. Honestly, I feel like this movie had some areas in need of some serious improvement. Overall, it wasn't a great film and I'm not sure I would watch it again.
