DVD Review: Dr. Doolittle 3 Summary: 5 StarsI purchased this movie for my two boys (ages 5 and 7). My 7 year old loves horses and has watched this movie multiple times.
As a parent, it is really nice to be able to have the boys watch a movie with OR without me and I don't have to worry about content. No swearing, drugs, violence or scandalous behavior.
DVD Review: Dr Doolittle for a new generation Summary: 4 Stars
Just how many Dr Doolittle films can they make?
Doolittle 3 could be entitled, the Next Generation. Kyla Pratt takes the reins of talking to the animals and center stage as she struggles to cope with teen age lonliness and unpopularity. Her skill in 'animal' is put to good use as she even finds herself in the White House in the beginning of the film.
Clearly, the focus of this film is far removed from the original Rex Harrison production, but aimed at a Hannah Montana/Zoey audience. In that, it succeeds well.
Look for it at your local video store.

DVD Review: Very entertaining Summary: 5 StarsVery entertaining and appropriate for all age groups. My how she has grown over the years playing the daughter.
DVD Review: Pretty awful Summary: 2 StarsSo often a series sits on its laurels and continues to crank out episodes and the audience continues to see them because they are not terrible. Then, inevitably, the makers vomit something out with the same name, it's atrocious, and they take the viewers' money on the half effort and that's the end of it. Doctor Dolittle 3 is therefore the end.
There was no point in making this. It lacks eddie murphy (they have him on the phone talking to his wife, but one cannot even hear his voice). Unlike the first two which were at least somewhat funny in a very goofy way (worth watching if you're dying to kill an evening), this was a sleep-fest--literally. About 25 min in I was in an epic battle with my eyelids, pulling out all the stops to stay awake and avoid the wrath of my wife. Alas, the eyelids won (don't they always?).
The characters on this are silly, the plot...oh, I don't know why I'll bother anymore; The movie is just bad, I'd recommend skipping it.
Description of Doctor Dolittle 3Maya Dolittle (Kyla Pratt) just wants to be a normal teenager, but there's one small problem?She's inherited her father's uncanny ability to talk to animals! Her special talent keeps landing her in the doghouse with her parents, and it's driving her friends completely ape! At a summer dude ranch, Maya tries to hide her unique ability so she can fit in, but when her friends are in trouble, she comes to the rescue as only a Doolittle can--enlisting the aid of the ranch's uproarious and outrageous talking animals! This hilarious third installment of the wildly popular Dr. Dolittle series is more family fun than a barrel of talking monkeys?and lots easier to clean up after! Maya Dolittle (Kyla Pratt, One on One) takes center stage in this tweener-oriented sequel to the fur-friendly entertainments. While Eddie Murphy and much of the original gang have moved on, his on-screen daughter talks to the animals and works at a veterinarian clinic--just like dear old dad--when not attending school. Naturally, the animals talk back, like the family pooch and a mischievous monkey--who tends to materialize at the most inopportune times--from the first installments. So some things haven't changed. On the other hand, the 17-year-old's primary concerns are popularity, putting together the perfect look, and bagging a boyfriend. It won't be easy. The other kids think she's a freak because of that animal thing, and the chatty creatures keep getting her in trouble with her parents. Her mom, Lisa (Kristen Wilson, who returns to the fold), sends Maya to a dude ranch to straighten her out, but the animals won't leave the "weirdo" alone. (The ranch is run by John Amos of Good Times fame.) Eventually she finds a way to put her Dolittle skill to good use and returns home a heroine. Fast-paced, if forgettable, this straight-to-DVD movie is manufactured to appeal more to the That's So Raven and Lizzy McGuire set than to fans of the original duo (let alone the British musical with Rex Harrison). --Kathleen C.
