  Avoid!
  
  Just awful! It appears Eddie Murphy will do anything for money...the uniqueness of Dr.Dolittle has just gone down the drian. I feel for the animals!

  Silly but good
  
  If you like talking animals then this is for you. Was a silly film but if you've got couple of hours to spare then its worth a watch.
