Brendan Fraser (George of the Jungle, The Mummy) brings his considerable charm to this awkward live-action version of the classic cartoon Dudley Do-Right. The first half of the movie lays out the basic elements of the cartoon (none-too-bright Canadian Mountie battles melodrama villain Snidely Whiplash with pluck and dumb luck) with little wit or imagination, but lots of pratfalls and broad gags. But about halfway into it, when Whiplash has taken over the town of Semi-Happy Falls and become its leading citizen, the movie takes a curious turn: Since Whiplash has become, to all appearances, a good guy, Dudley decides the only way to fight him is to turn into a bad guy. Next thing you know, Dudley is decked out in black leather and cruising around on a motorbike while Whiplash fumes impotently. Bullwinkle fans may decry this departure, but it gives the movie a much-needed burst of energy and the opportunity for some entertainingly surreal images--like Whiplash up to his neck in a mudbath with cucumber slices on his eyes, consulting with his henchmen about dealing with that unpredictable Do-Right. With Alfred Molina, Sarah Jessica Parker, and Monty Python's Eric Idle. --Bret Fetzer

Dudley Did All Right.......2007-09-06

This actually wasn't as bad as you might think. It's harmless fluff, silly in many parts but also a movie filled with likable characters and good adult jokes that go over the kids' heads. It's clean stuff: references to other movies and things. It's one of these films you find yourself laughing more than the kids but the next day you really can't remember much that you saw. In other words, you will be entertained but it's not a memorable movie.

The horse might be in the running as the most memorable character in the film. Even the villain isn't despicable. He's more cartoon-like than evil. Alfred Molina does a nice job as "Snidely Whiplash." Eric Idle and Sarah Jessica Parker are also good in here.

Brendan Fraser, playing the title role, was on a role their for a couple of years, playing these silly, comedic roles and being successful in doing so (i.e. George Of The Jungle, Bedazzled, etc.)

Don't dismiss this as totally stupid. It will surprise you. All of us can use a good laugh and this movie provides plenty.

It is a great one for a change of pace. A silly funny movie.

This level of badness was best described by my friend as we watched Superman III back in high school. He said "this movie sucks, lets go play video games." He then threw his bucket of popcorn all over me, stood up and walked out of the theater. I, of course, followed him wondering why I hadn't thought of it first...although I wouldn't have thrown the popcorn...it was way too expensive to decorate my friend with.

I found it hard to keep watching..........2005-04-23

...and eventually I left and puttered in the kitchen just to get away from it.

We checked this movie out as a movie we could watch together as a family and eventually I got tired of watching. A plodding plot should have been overcome by the cast but they didn't come anywere close to succeeding.

ALMOST A DUDLEY.......2004-10-02

There's always a great risk in taking an animated cartoon hero and bringing him to life in a non-animated movie. Look at ROCKY AND BULLWINKLE and SCOOBY DOO for instance. Talented director Hugh Wilson (BLAST FROM THE PAST) tries to infuse that maniacally silly aspect of Dudley Do-Right cartoons, but it has only moments of fun, and more misses than hits. Brendan Fraser, usually at home in this type of broad farce, amazingly falls flat on his face in this one (and no pun intended). Likewise, Sarah Jessica Parker is given too little to do and what she does isn't broad enough (like her role in MARS ATTACKS). Alfred Molina's villainous turn as Snidely Whiplash is the strongest point of the movie, but even he has some low moments.
I did laugh a few times, and enjoyed myself, but it's not as good as I had expected.

Great for the price**.......2007-08-29

Purchased it for my child online as it is hard to find ..extremely low price for a brand new dvd (considering the typical 14.99 and up for so many other dvds in the market) It's definitely worth a few dollars, bargain price for a bargain dvd.

Meh.......2007-08-17

I had to give it at least 3 stars based soley on the fact that is is Rocky and Bullwinkle. I was very surpised to see this dollar DVD while I was standing in line at Wal-Mart. There are some goods and bads with this purchase:
The Good - It's only a dollar, and its Rocky and Bullwinkle.
The Bad - The video quality is very poor, and the audio goes in and out.

Final word: Its worth a dollar.
