Average Movie !!
An average movie,compare to previous one. Kids loved this animation n CG. 1 time watch. Got in just Rs.1,999 due to pre release booking. Both discs (4K+2D) has good quality especially, they featured Hindi 7.1 Digital Dolby in both discs.Now,this movie is also available on digital platform in HD Qyality so,I have doubt that,people will buy this with Rs.2500 price tag.

There have been two notable adaptations of Hugh Lofting's Doctor Dolittle books - a Victorian fantasy adventure, and a doofy Eddie Murphy comedy with plenty of scatalogical humor and wisecracking animals.And the biggest problem with "Dolittle" is that it tries to be both of these things at the same time, which makes it both stupid and kind of bipolar - one minute it's trying to be a charming, quaint fantasy tale, the next it's making jokes about dogs sniffing butts. It's also a painful waste of a very talented cast, most of whom are playing animals with exactly one character trait apiece, but the biggest waste is obviously Robert Downey Jr.As a very well-animated introduction explains, Dr. John Dolittle (Robert Downey Jr.) is a veterinarian who has the ability to speak to animals. But after the death of his wife, he locked himself away in a remote estate with his colorful array of animals, wanting nothing to do with the human race because... well, no good reason, actually. He just kind of does.Years later, a kind-hearted boy named Tommy Stubbins (Harry Collett) accidentally shoots a squirrel, and takes it to Dolittle. Dolittle, it turns out, has become an insane recluse with mice living in his Old Testament beard. At the exact same time, Lady Rose (Carmel Laniado) brings news from Queen Victoria: she has become deathly ill, and needs Dolittle's help. And after Dolittle decides for purely selfish reasons to help, he discovers that the queen has been poisoned.Since the only cure for the poison is a magical cure-all fruit from a far-off mythical island, Dolittle sets sail to find it - and of course his ship is entirely crewed by bickering, not-very-bright animals, as well as Stubbins (who jumped on at the last minute). Their only hope for finding the island is to head to a hostile pirate island and steal back a valuable journal, but Dolittle and Co. soon discover that they are being pursued by a British warship, led by Dolittle's rival, Dr. Blair Müdfly (Michael Sheen)."Dolittle" is one of those movies that is just.... dumb. The setting and the overall arc of the plot seem to indicate that this is meant to be a quaint, enchanting, adventure-laden fantasy story. The sunlit, nature-draped setting of Dolittle's home (where carnivores somehow never eat any other animals), the dragon, the rambunctious pirate island, and scenes like Dolittle's ship being towed by whales - they all seem to be from a story concept that might have actually been good.The problem is, the movie is dumb. For instance, the entire plot revolves around an assassination plot (using one of those convenient movie poisons that, if counteracted in time, does zero physical harm) to take the throne from Queen Victoria. The problem is, buying into this central plot point requires you to be really ignorant about Queen Victoria, and British primogeniture in general. It only succeeds in making the obvious villain look like a bumbling fool.But the biggest source of stupidity is the animals. They are stupid. Each one has one character trait apiece (being scared, being angry, being French, saying "bro"), and most of them talk in anachronisms (such as quotes from "The Godfather" and "Rush Hour"). Not only do their idiotic interactions eat up valuable time that could have been used to actually tell the story, but the jokes are rarely, if ever, funny. For instance, there's a running gag that Dab-Dab the duck cannot tell medical instruments apart from vegetables. In its very first appearance, this joke is dragged out several times, until you just want to shriek "Cut cut cut!" at the screen.And the quaint Victorian setting is somewhat at odds with the copious lowbrow humor, such as a tense scene involving a tiger that ends with testicular trauma, which is dragged out as if it were super-serious. And of course, the infamous scene involving a dragon's butt and bagpipes.I usually love Robert Downey Jr's acting, so it is to my sorrow that I must report that he is shockingly bad in this movie - he gives a strangely affected, twee performance, with a head-scratchingly bad Welsh accent that makes him sound like he's doing an impression of someone else. And his personal charisma isn't enough to make Dolittle likable - he comes across as a nasty, selfish, childish man-child for most of the movie. Collett is so nondescript that he barely makes an impression, and Sheen gives a mad-eyed, hammy performance that screams "I'm in a bad kids' movie and I know it."Pretty much all of the animals are played by big-name actors such as Rami Malek, John Cena, Selena Gomez, Ralph Fiennes, Tom Holland and Kumail Nanjiani, and except for Emma Thompson's Polynesia, it was a waste of money. None of them give a very good performance, and most of their voices aren't distinctive enough for it to have been worth the effort.Its bipolar personality is probably the most memorable thing about "Dolittle" - aside from that, it's just another stupid lowbrow comedy aimed at children, on the assumption that they have no taste. Not worth watching.

"Dolittle," also referred to as "The Voyage of Doctor Dolittle," is a 2020 American fantasy adventure film based on the Stephen Gaghan, Dan Gregor, and Doug Mand collaborative screenplay adaptation of a "story" written by Thomas Shepherd, a pastiche inspired by the Hugh Lofting 1922 "The Voyages of Doctor Dolittle" novel and characters; it is the third film adaptation based on the 'Dolittle' character, after the 1967 musical 'Doctor Dolittle' starring Rex Harrison and the 1998 – 2009 'Dr. Dolittle' film series starring Eddie Murphy.Directed by the screenwriter Stephen Gaghan, the film stars an awesome cast of humans:Robert Downey Jr. as Dr. John Dolittle, a Welsh widowed veterinarian who has the ability to speak to animals.Antonio Banderas as King Rassouli, king of Monteverde, Lily's father and Dolittle's father-in-law.Michael Sheen as Dr. Blair Müdfly, an old schoolmate and rival of Dolittle.Jim Broadbent as Lord Thomas Badgley, one of the Queen's chairmen who sends Müdfly to thwart Dolittle.Jessie Buckley as Queen Victoria, the Queen of the United Kingdom.Harry Collett as Tommy Stubbins, Dolittle's self-appointed apprentice.Kasia Smutniak as Lily Dolittle, Dolittle's deceased wife and King Rassouli's late daughter.Ralph Ineson as Arnall Stubbins, Tommy's uncle.Carmel Laniado as Lady Rose, a maid of honor to the Queen who becomes Tommy's friend and love interest.Joanna Page as Bethan Stubbins, Tommy's aunt.Elliot Barnes-Worrell as Captain William Derrick, a British Captain Officer who follows Dr. Müdfly's orders.Sonny Ashbourne Serkis as Arnall Stubbins Jr., Tommy's cousin.Only to be outshone by the zoological cast:Emma Thompson as Polynesia ("Poly" for short), a wise and brave blue and yellow macaw with an English accent and Dolittle's most trusted adviser.Rami Malek as Chee-Chee, a shy but noble mountain gorilla.John Cena as Yoshi, a happy-go-lucky polar bear who wears a chullo because he is always cold.Kumail Nanjiani as Plimpton, a mischievous and critical but well-meaning ostrich who wears striped stockings and argues with Yoshi as well as carrying Dolittle around on occasion.Octavia Spencer as Dab-Dab, a helpful but deluded duck with a metal leg.Tom Holland as Jip, a loyal dog who wears glasses.Craig Robinson as Kevin, a cheeky-chippy red squirrel with a bad attitude.Ralph Fiennes as Barry, an aggressive and moody Bengal tiger with golden fangs, who lives on Monteverde and has a past with Dolittle.Selena Gomez as Betsy, a friendly Maasai giraffe.Marion Cotillard as Tutu, a French red fox who is best friends with Betsy and often rides on her head.Frances de la Tour as Ginko-Who-Soars, a fire-breathing dragon who guards the magical fruits of Eden.Jason Mantzoukas as James, a comical damselfly.Nick A. Fisher as Mini, a cute sugar glider.Tim Treloar as Humphrey, a humpback whale that Dolittle enlists.Jim Carretta as Arthur, a bearded mouse who was in Dolittle's beard before it was shaved off.Carretta also voices Leona, an octopus that belongs to Queen Victoria.Ranjani Brow and Kelly Stables as The Mice.Scott Menville as the Army Ant.David Sheinkopf as Don Carpenterino, the boss ant who is Dolittle's and James' contact on Monteverde.Will Arnett as a hare in one of Rassouli's prison cells, who wears an eyepatch and is a friend of Barry.And let us not overlook 'Styx', the walking stick insect spy, not listed in the cast, (reminiscent of 'Bowtruckle' in "Fantastic Beasts: The Secrets of Dumbledore").The adventure begins with Tommy Stubbins who accidently injures Kevin the squirrel. Seeing the mishap and the caring Tommy, the sympathetic "Poly" the macaw leads Tommy to carry Kevin to Doctor Dolittle for life-saving surgery. Successful, the adventure continues as the good doctor is summoned to attend another emergency of grave consequence.Released January 17, 2020, Running 101 minutes.Professional film reviewers, known as critics, have outdone themselves in being unduly critical, opining that the narrative and theatrics are in effect witless. Even Robert Downey Jr. expressed regrets about starring in the production. To them, I say, it is they who are foolish for being unable to appreciate the childish aspects of life. I found the film's story, the performers' characterizations, the animations, and the visuals wonderfully fantastic, fanciful, and delightful, giving flight to our imagination. The production is certainly not as brilliant or spellbinding as the 2002 "Dinotopia" or the 2019 - 2022 "His Dark Materials," but it is nonetheless enjoyable, entertaining, and great fun to watch.
