Dove Review

“Tad: The Lost Explorer” is the Indiana Jones for his generation! Tad has so many adventures in this action-packed animated feature that Indiana Jones just might envy him! Tad was raised by his grandmother and always dreamed about becoming an archaeologist and experiencing great explorations and journeys. When he loses his job as a construction worker, he finds himself headed to Peru where he meets a beautiful young woman named Sarah. They have a lot in common, and Tad does not fail to recognize this fact. After all, he is all about facts.

Tad and Sarah face several bad guys together, including a real baddie named Odysseus. This action-filled movie features the bad guys and their several pursuits of Tad and Sarah, a few fights, Tad and Sarah racing across the top of a train, the search for treasure, and a bit of humor thrown in for good measure. Due to a few rude comments and a few intense fighting and dangerous moments, we are recommending this film to be best suited for the 12-Plus Dove Seal. You’ll be out of breath by the time this one is over! It’s a non-stop thrill ride all the way.
