Amazon.co.uk Review

The Magic Roundabout is another in a long list of 1960’s and 1970’s television shows updated and adapted for the big screen. The original show has since become a cult favourite due to its hallucinatory double-entendres, and the powers that be realised that the fans of the television series now had children of their own. Therefore, the film version of The Magic Roundabout attempts to strike a balance between appealing to both children and their parents. To that end, they’ve recruited a whole host of celebrities to provide voices: Robbie Williams as Dougal the dog, Kylie Minogue as Florence, Tom Baker as the evil Zeebad and Ian McKellen as Zebedee, amongst others. The story involves Dougal accidentally releasing Zeebad from prison, then joining up with his friends to save the day--ideal good-versus-bad kid’s entertainment.

The DVD release has two different versions. The single disc version includes character profiles, a quiz and a look at the UK premiere of the film. The two-disc version, meanwhile, also has behind the scenes documentaries and, best of all, some classic black & white episodes of the original series--the perfect piece of nostalgia to entertain the parents. --Ted Kord



Synopsis

The world is placed in mortal danger when Dougal accidentally releases Zeebad from prison. Together with Ermintrude, Brian and Dylan, Dougal sets off on a quest to discover three magic diamonds, and thus prevent the evil Zeebad from encasing the world in ice...

5.0 out of 5 stars I'd give it TEN if I could!, 20 Jul 2005
I loved this movie. When it came out in the cinema, I admit I was skeptical...How could it possibly compare to my (albeit rather hazy) memories of the original series?
However, I needn't have worried. Pathe have come up with an all-new, action-packed story (though I admit the plot WAS very simple) using our favourite characters from yesteryear that will appeal to kids and adults alike. Look out for the little in-jokes and movie references that will have you laughing aloud...And watch the kids faces when you have a giggle at the jokes that go over their heads ;)

1.0 out of 5 stars only one disk!, 20 Jul 2009
By A. Thomas (England) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This product was not as advertised. The case contained (and only had room for) one disk. The disc was labeled disk 2. Does disk 1 exist? Not good!

Da da da de de do do do do doooo...

That's my impression of the TV series theme tune which was sadly lacking from this film despite it being in the trailer.

This wasn't the Magic Roundabout I loved as a kid, but I still enjoyed the film. The characteristics of the characters remained and the animation was slick.

I'm not the biggest Robbie Williams fan, but his voicing of Dougal was very good.

The story was basic but did the trick, this is one to put on at Christmas and curl up with a cuppa tea and the kids.
