Dora and the lost city of gold
The movie adaptation of this ever favorite kids show is incredibly self aware of their foundation. There is a usage of humour that is self- aware and borederly a satire of the original material but none in an offensive way. The movie is very engaging and entertaining. The cast is amazing as we finally get to place Dora with a human face rather than the cartoon one. The Dora in the movie is older than the original Dora. She is in her highschool. The movie was a whooping hit due to its background and the curiosity to see the transformation of the original to movie format. The movie did a wonderful job here especially with the cast and the screenplay.

Shrek
The movie which was aimed as a parody to the disney animated movie universe turned out to be a brilliant fan favorite all over. An Ogre is the Prince charming and he is not pure as the original ones. He has his own reasons for doing what he is doing and does not fall for the princess the minute he sees her. It is a progressive relationship which involves engrossing secrets and character realizations. There are also adult oriented themes and motifs throughout the story. The story was praised by critics for their extraordinary handling of the movie. The movie was BAFTA for best adapted screenplay. This further became a successful franchise.

Asterix: The mansion of Gods
This 2014 French- Belgian movie stays true to the book plot and closely develops the character without feeling that it has been changed.
