After losing his wife seven years earlier, the eccentric Dr. John Dolittle, famed doctor and veterinarian of Queen Victoria's England, hides behind the walls of Dolittle Manor with only his menagerie of exotic animals for company. But when the young queen falls gravely ill, a reluctant Dolittle is forced to set sail on an epic adventure to a mythical island in search of a cure. The doctor is joined on his quest by a young, self-appointed apprentice and a raucous coterie of animal friends.

COMMUNITY REVIEWS

Lackluster submitted by alexmichaelp on August 27, 2020, 3:44pm The plot of lacking depth. The best part of the movie were the talking animals -- though their characters lacked depth as well.

Dolittle submitted by SBNB on August 2, 2021, 2:33pm I thought this would be better. At least my kids liked it.
