The Magic Roundabout(Film, 2005)

The Magic Roundabout (also known as Sprung! The Magic Roundabout; French: Pollux – Le manège enchanté) is a 2005 animated adventure fantasy film based on the television series of the same name. Unlike the show, which was presented with stop-motion animation, the film utilizes computer-generated animation. The story sees a group of unlikely heroes who go on a quest to stop a reawakened villain, who intends on freezing the world, from retrieving a set of powerful diamonds. It was released in France with a French dub on 2 February 2005, and an English-language version was released two weeks later in the United Kingdom on 11 February. In the United States, the film was released as Doogal on 24 February 2006 with a new English cast, dub, and script. Only Ian McKellen's performance was retained, while Kylie Minogue redubbed her role from the UK release. The UK and French dub received mixed reviews, but the US dub received overwhelmingly negative reviews. ()
