Product Description
Product Description
Dreamworks SKG's second feature-length animated film blends comedy and drama in an unusual historical adventure. Two genial swindlers working as stable hands stow away with Cortez, the legendary Spanish conquistador, as he searches for El Dorado, the lost City of Gold. Luck smiles on the two con men, and they happen to find a settlement in Mexico that they believe is El Dorado; however, while the two exotic strangers are at first embraced by the Mayan people, they've also arrived just in time to be offered up as the next human sacrifice. The Road to El Dorado was directed by Don Paul, who helmed the first DreamWorks animated feature, The Prince of Egypt; Will Finn, a featured animator on Beauty and the Beast and Aladdin; Bibo Bergeron, who worked on Ferngully: The Last Rainforest; and David Silverman. It features new songs by Elton John and Tim Rice, and the voice cast includes Kevin Kline, Kenneth Branagh, Rosie Perez, Edward James Olmos, and Armand Assante.
Set Contains:
The usual extra fare found on DVDs takes a back seat in this family film. The main feature, a fun game for kids 6 and older, contains puzzles, math problems, and crafts projects. The player follows a map not unlike the one the characters in the movie use to find El Dorado. The only thing missing is a kid's favorite: coloring pages. Also included is Elton John's amusing music video and a PC game demo. For older folk, a short documentary on the film and a ho-hum commentary from the filmmakers (which would have been better if the troubled production history of the film had been discussed). --Doug Thomas

The animation in this movie is stunning, with vivid colors and detailed backgrounds that bring the story to life. The characters are also beautifully designed and full of personality, making them instantly lovable and relatable. The voice acting is top-notch, with Kevin Kline and Kenneth Branagh bringing Tulio and Miguel to life with their comedic timing and chemistry.
The movie's soundtrack is also worth mentioning, with songs composed by Elton John and Tim Rice that perfectly capture the spirit of adventure and discovery. From the upbeat "It's Tough to be a God" to the stirring "Someday Out of the Blue," the music is a highlight of the movie.
But what really makes The Road to El Dorado such a great movie is its heart. It's a story about friendship and trust, and how sometimes the most valuable treasure in life isn't gold or riches, but the relationships we build along the way. Tulio and Miguel's friendship is at the core of the movie, and their banter and camaraderie make for some truly hilarious moments.
In conclusion, The Road to El Dorado is a wonderful animated movie that is sure to entertain audiences of all ages. With stunning animation, memorable characters, and a heartwarming story, it's a movie that will leave you feeling uplifted and inspired. If you haven't seen it yet, do yourself a favor and give it a watch. It's a hidden gem that deserves more recognition.

Enfin en blu-ray en français
Viene con el doblaje español latino.
No debe faltar en la colección. Totalmente recomendable.

No debe faltar en la colección. Totalmente recomendable.
The basic story is of Tulio and Miguel, two spanish con-men who 'win' a map to the lost city of El Dorado.
Before they can get there though, they find themselves locked in the brig of Spanish explorer Cortez's ship.
They escape, with a horse named Altivo ("well, the horse is a surprise" Tulio) and find themselves landing in the Americas.
They manage to find the city, but are accidently mistaken for Gods by the cities head priest (who's name I simply cannot spell)
They soon befriend a young native girl, who also turns out to be a con-man, of sorts, and the hilarious outcomes youre going to have to watch for yourself.
What really got me with this film was the animation, it was superb, wow worthy. It was so realistically done, but in that unique way that good animation does.
Tulio and Miguel's animation is also incredibly realistic, they are fascinating characters to watch, simply to pick out the little quirks of movement unique to each of them.
Besides the animation, the story is very well written, of course the idea of a city made out of gold isn't exactly synonomous with history any more, but this film makes you believe.
The two lead characters, Tulio and Miguel, are so well written that you just wish they were real men. The voice actors, (Kenneth Branagh: Miguel, and Kevin Kline: Tulio) play off each other so well and incredibly convincingly, you just find yourself laughing constantly.
