Dr Dolittle


A remake that has nothing to do with the original except for the idea of animals talking. This version has a doctor who realises, against his will, that he can talk to animals, and they to him. This leads to considerable chaos, including family and work problems. But naturally everything works out in the end.
Suitable for kids only.

Visitor Comments

Nick Soper: I expected much more. All the funny stuff was in the trailers on TV, so save your money, and watch more TV to get the best of Dr. Dolittle...

Claire Nicole: Apart from a few cute catch phrases it kindda sucked.

Laetitia Loubser: Most definitly the worst movie I have seen this year! Eddie could not hide the fact that he has an utter fear of animals!!

Wendy Ray: Loved the animals.
