After The Prince of Egypt, I wasn't too keen on another Dreamworks animated film. What can I say? The Road to El Dorado kept me hooked right from the very start, proving to be an amazing adventure filled with action, comedy, color, breath-taking imagery and music. Reviewed by qball_82 7 / 10 The Road to El Dorado.hooked from start to finish. The Road to El Dorado is enjoyable on all accounts.
THE ROAD TO EL DORADO ENGLISH DOWNLOAD MOVIE
The animation pulls itself off well the movie is bright and colourful, but not a kiddie flick at all- rather, it's humorous on all scales- my friend's 6-year-old-brother, I, and my 55-year-old dad agree. And our main antagonist? Tzekel Khan (spelling unsure), a rather nutsy high priest and speaker for the gods, who proves to be. Then there's Chel the seducer from the city of gold, able to help the two (at a price). Tulio, the other half of the duo, has a bit more preoccupation with material possessions and wealth, though he still remains human. oooh, low blow.'" come to mind).Īs a basic rundown, there's Miguel, the fun-loving, more light-hearted of the two con-men he tends to appreciate the beauty in fun and people.
The songs are catchy (as can be well-expected from the good man Elton John), the characters are lovable yet total sleazeball con-men, and the humour is on many levels and with it, it brings many good, memorable lines ("'For three days?!' 'YES! Don't even breathe!'" and "'You're buying your own con!' 'At least I'm not DATING mine!' '. The plot works on many levels it's straightforward enough for the general kid to understand and enjoy, but is piled under levels of wit and more jokes that rely on understanding more of it, making it balanced and still funny the 150+th time I watch it.
Dreamworks is a breath of fresh air in times like these, it would seem. One of the few more-modern animated films I still enjoy maybe that's because it doesn't happen to revolve around "The power of friendship/love/whatever" and isn't some sappy love story, like many of Disney's drek has been (though it does have a minor, slightly sleazey love-ish story in the background). You can do big with little as long as elements fit together.Reviewed by demonelipso 10 / 10 One of my favorites. No Bad Boys II, no Triple X 2, no stupid and expensive action. Does it seem ‘right’ to you that I I have watch an animated film mostly aimed at children, to get a film with a good plot, a good villain, great action, enough thrills, blood and emotion? It does not sound right to me.
TO ALL STUDIOS I MUST SAY THIS: start making feature films like this again please, I miss them. It’s been so long since I’ve seen any good adventure (The Mummy was last and Indy before that). Thank you Dreamworks for providing me with a fantastic story of adventure. I bet you’ll enjoy it, disregarding your age (although very small kid’s might get frightened at times). If you’re an adventure freak like I am and you simply love Indiana Jones or Stargate or The Mummy for all I care you should definitely watch this film. Sure every now and then there is a great animated film that revives the Adventure genre of film-making, but that’s basically it. You probably think the one line summary of this comment is a bit strange, since The Road to El Dorado isn’t in fact that old, but what I meant by it is that they do not make feature films like this anymore.
