Dudley Do-Right | Year: 1999 Classification: Themenwelten - DVD-Hits unter 10 EUR - Komödie & Drama Directed: - Hugh Wilson Actors/Actresses: - Brendan Fraser - Sarah Jessica Parker - Alfred Molina Hysterical I've been a long-time fan of movies with no point other than to entertain. This one goes near the top of my list of good slapstick films. Brendan Fraser is totally convincing as the Goody-two-shoes Dudley, and Alfred Molina is a scream as Snidley Whiplash. Eric Idle as the Teacher is goofy as usual. The Kumquat (sp?) Indians are also a riot. (Riverdance?) The only problem I really have is Sarah Jessica Parker. To me, she didn't seem to really pass of as a believable Nell Fenwick, Dudley's Love Interest. Don't expect great art, just a fun way to kill 90 minutes. Did Bendan Fraser really want to do this film? Having been a lifelong fan of the old Dudley Do-Right cartoon series (He's my hero)(I'm 43)I found Brendans' portrayal very, very labored. The expression on his face for the most part was "do I really want to be here?". Sarah Jessica Parker would have been my 10th choice of ladies to play the part of Nell (I guess Sex & the City is where she belongs). Also being a Python fan, the inclusion of Eric Idle originally got my interest up....but sadly the role given him was a complete misuse of his comic genius....he would have been better suited as Snidley. The movie overall was somewhat enjoyable to watch, but I think I'll stick to watching the old cartoon series. It 's OK for families at least! DVD need more features! This movie is OK for families because it has very little searing and other things you find in a PG-13 or R rated movie ! The DVD is OK it got both widescreen and full screen! At least you can watch the trailer or even the fractured fairy tale anytime! The movie plot itself is decent considering the people in it had to make a live action movie from a cartoon! At least fans of the original series might like it! I gave it 2 stars because I expected more features on the DVD such as other movie Fraser has starred for the studio(The Mummy),director/ actor commentary and what about a behind the scenes feature on the DVD? That's why I gave it 2 stars! So remember OK for families but parents should watch it first before the children!
