The Trouble with Mr Doodle offers a nuanced glimpse into the life of a boy whose fixation on doodling morphs into something more complex. Set in a rather plain English town, the film captures the tension between mundane reality and the imaginative world the protagonist creates. The pacing feels deliberate, allowing us to really sit with his struggles, both internal and external. The practical effects subtly blend with the live-action, enhancing that dreamlike quality of childhood imagination gone awry.
