I must have been the only person in the world never to have seen the Dr Dolittle films so I thought I'd add them to my DVD rental basket. Dr Dolitte 2 came the other day and I got round to watching it yesterday. However, I've still not seen the first one! This is a film only review. *Plot* John Dolittle can talk to animals. Something that his family, especially his teenage daughter can find extremely irritating at times. One day, his racoon friend tells him that a beaver has requested to see him in the forest. John goes along to meet the beaver and learns that there are plans to cut down the forest, therefore meaning that the wildlife who live there ... Read the complete review

The king of the cr*p comedy sequel is back - this time in a sequel to a movie which was pretty cr*p in the first place. Should bomb right? Well no, because its a kiddy movie and it has talking animals so we all get forced to see it. Oh great. Firstly let me say that I am not a fan of Eddie Murphy and if the guy disappeared off the movie screens for good tomorrow I doubt he would be missed by anyone. The ‘fast talking black guy who swears alot’ thing may have been successful briefly in the 80s but to be honest, Murphy isn't the best at this anymore. In fact when compard to Chris Rock and Chris Tucker to name a couple, he frankly stinks at it. ... Read the complete review

DR DOLITTLE 2 Directed by stephen car Staring Eddy Murphy Certificate pg. I did not see the first one, although I did want to just did not get around to it. So I really did not know what to expect when I went with my two year old to see this one. I thought she might like to see it as she loves animals. But it lacked action. It began showing dolittle in the family home having set up his business talking and councilling the dogs. His best friend the dog is the narrator which is a nice touch. To be honest after the novelty of the talking animals wears off it gets a bit slow. The general ... Read the complete review

Certificate: U (Universal) Directed by Steven carr and starring the mighty Eddie Murphy, along with the likes of Kevin Pollack, Jeffrey Jones and others, Dr Dolittle 2 hit the UK Cinemas on 27th July 2001 hoping to emulate the success of the first film, that made it a firm favorite with adult and children alike. Indeed, continuing the 'warm' family children genre that can be enjoyed by both adults and Children (along the same lines as Shrek, although to be honest this pales into insignificance when compared to the mightily awesome Shrek). Certainly a case of more of the same (the makers of the film openly admit that they did very little to ... Read the complete review

It’s mid-week and daughter no. 2 and I have a rare evening alone. We decide to take advantage of it and spend an evening together at the pictures. A quick look on the net informs us that Dr Dolittle is showing at our local cinema. Sounds like fun, we thought, got ourselves ready and poodled off for an evening out. Neither of us had seen the first film so we had no idea what to expect, other than a man who spoke to animals, and no comparisons to make. Eddie Murphy plays the role of Dr Dolittle, the man who speaks to animals, the opening scene showing Murphy rushing around his veterinary practise, a practise with a difference. This doctor ...
