Movie outings are always more fun when you are with friends!
We were at the preview of Dora and The Lost City of Gold yesterday and these kids, who were seated side by side, kept laughing throughout the whole show. I asked them afterwards "Why did you all keep laughing ah?" And they said "Because the show is funny and we are happy!"
Well, we've known Dora for a decade now and have over two dozen of her storybooks in our library and even a set of her DVDs - in Mandarin and Spanish okay, haha, that was before Netflix and Smart TV came along - which we watched often when I was alone with the big girl back in Sweden. Dora is all about having an adventurous spirit, never giving up in the face of adversity, being true to yourself and geniunely nice to everyone around you.
I love how the movie features the classic characters like Boots and Swiper and how there is even a short cartoon segment that brings back the fond memories - Hello Benny, Isa, Tico and the adorable Backpack. Every time Dora tried to sing a song to make everyone feel better, I couldn't help but smile and love her big heart. The story of Dora entering high school and trying her best to make friends is also a reminder for the kids to be who they are deep within and not let others take that away from you. True friends don't judge and will love you for who you are.
Even though the story is a little predictable for the hubby and I, we still found ourselves laughing out loud at many parts of the movie and enjoyed it tremendously with our kids too. Yup, considering we've read and watched so many of her stories, it's nice to see it on the big screen for the first time and Isabela Moner, who looks just like Dora, did an amazing job in making the character come alive.
The movie opens on 29 August in cinemas. If your kids love Dora, don't miss this for the world. If your kids have no idea who she is but loves a little adventure, humour and thrill, this will be a good way to keep them happy and the whole family entertained too. Thanks for having us, @uipsingapore!
