      Okay

      Personally, I think "Doug's 1st Movie" was boring and a waste of time. I think when the Doug TV Series was on Nick was good, then Disney came in. Probably kids from the ages of 4-9 will be able to sit through this movie, and maybe their parents, but nobody else. It was okay though I guess, I'm sure the younger kids probably liked it and it still has problems that everyone can relate to. But come on, what was up with that monster? And why did they have to show those people giving it a shot?(well, I felt sick!). I would give it 4 stars out of 10. And by the way, why was Disney's "Doug" TV series canceled that same year? And why the heck was the movie PG? Oh well!

      You know....

      I looked up this movie on Wikipedia a few weeks ago to see what it was about. When I read the plot summary, I honestly thought that somebody had trolled the page and typed in the weirdest s*** they could think of. Then, after checking IMDb's plot summary, I realized that it was ACTUALLY ABOUT A FRIENDLY MONSTER NAMED HERMAN MELVILLE.

      And the funny thing about this: I actually DID see this in theaters when it came out (back in '99, which made me 9 years old at the time), but I literally had NO memory of this movie. I remember everything else I've ever seen in theaters, to some degree, but not this one.

      The fact that this movie was SO ridiculous, yet SOOOOO forgettable is a testament to its quality. I was a fan of the show too (when it was on Nickelodeon, I hated what Disney did to it).

      Btw, "Doug's FIRST Movie"? Obviously, that title isn't descriptive enough; should've put "and only" somewhere in that title...

      Good movie, but where was the "real" Doug?

      This Doug movie was very much in keeping with the TV show BUT, Billy West who does the voice for Doug on the TV show didn't do the movie. I'm not sure why, but it was the first thing I noticed and it annoyed me through the whole movie that the "real" Doug had been replaced.

      This is one of those kids' films that adults can't sit down and watch as well. Okay, it's got nice morals, but pleeeeease, no DOUG'S 2ND MOVIE !!!!! Boring attempt to stretch a tiny DOUG episode into a feature-length production...didn't work. 4/10

      Disney ruined Doug for good.

      I saw this movie when I was a kid. I grew up watching the Nickeleon Doug but didn't see much of the Disney Doug.

      At first I seemed to enjoyed it from the first time seeing it.

      But years later I didn't felt like watching it again.

      Getting the VHS was a waist of money if I didn't bother in watching it again.

      This has to do with Doug and Skeeter trying to solve there monster in the Lucky Duck Lake mystery. They encounter the monster who's more friendly than it seems. They were going to show it to the public but didn't bother since the creature would get captured and imprisoned. Mr. Bluff over hears about it and has sent out agents to locate the creature, blah blah blah.

      I thought it be great bu it stank. Disney ruined Doug for the last time.

      Those who only like the Nickeleon Doug keep away from this movie if you dislike the Disney Doug. It just isn't the same as it was from the early 90s.

      Edit
      • Trivia
        A movie based on Doug goes as far back as 1993 during the Nickelodeon era, when 20th Century Fox was to have released a movie based on Doug, alongside movies based on Rugrats and Ren & Stimpy, but because the show was canceled and picked up by Disney by the time this film was released, this could technically make this the only Nickelodeon based film released by Disney.
      • Goofs
        When Doug finds the newspaper article stating that the monster was destroyed, he mentions that it is 'next week's paper' but starts to feel sad because he thinks Herman's dead, despite the fact that he clearly stated it was to be 'next week's paper'.
      • Quotes

        Guy Graham: [about the news article that Doug had] Who gave you that?

        Patti Mayonnaise: [scoffs] How could you!

        Guy Graham: Oh, please. All this fuss over a big stinky lizard? I may throw up. We're outta here. You're coming or what?

        [he grabs Patti's arm]

        Patti Mayonnaise: Guy.

        Guy Graham: What?

        Patti Mayonnaise: You're outta here!

        [she pushes Guy the dock into shallow water, and he leaves in defeat]

      • Crazy credits
        At the end of the credits, we see the Jumbo Pictures studio logo and in the background we hear the whistle of the Doug theme song.
      • Alternate versions
        The Disney Movie Club Exclusive features the TV edit version of the film which contains fade-ins and fade-outs of various parts, and the credit animation is sped-up.
