Dr. Dolittle (1998) – FilmAffinity

“A cloying, humorless motion picture (…) In the absence of a reasonable plot, legitimate characters, and good jokes, it doesn’t matter how impressive the animals look or how familiar they sound (…) Rating: ★½ (out of 4)”

“The fun of ‘Doctor Dolittle’ has less to do with its snazzy effects than with the way it keeps us wondering what kind of furry, feathered or scaly lunacy will pop up next.”

“Hollywood continues its strategy (…) of compensating for the dearth of good comedy writing with sheer dorky affability (…) Rating: ★★½ (out of 5)”

“The talented Murphy is appealing here (…) ‘Dr. Dolittle’ clocks in at a cool, crisp and blessed 85 minutes. This is movie bliss.”

“The movie will not harm anyone, and in the audience I saw it with, lots of parents and kids seemed to be laughing together (…) Rating: ★★★ (out of 4)”

“That Murphy remains the funniest figure in the movie is all the more amazing since the screenplay (…) drags him into some inspirational moments”
