Dr Dolittle 1 [work] 📥

Dr. Dolittle is a certified time capsule. It’s not high art, and it’s certainly not the original 1967 Rex Harrison musical. But it a wildly entertaining, frequently hilarious family comedy that coasts entirely on Eddie Murphy’s charm and an absolutely stacked voice cast.

Dr. John Dolittle (Eddie Murphy) is a successful, wealthy San Francisco physician who has built his life around order, precision, and suppressing the childhood "gift" that made him a family outcast: he can talk to animals. When a near-miss with a dog in traffic causes his repressed ability to come roaring back, his quiet life turns into a cacophony of barking, meowing, and squawking pleas for medical help. dr dolittle 1
