Dr. Dolittle is one of the worst movies ever made and it is one of the biggest disappointments of my life. It is safe to say almost everything about the movie is bad, and not in a funny way. It’s so awful it induces physical pain and put me in an awful mood for the rest of the night, a mood I still have not fully shaken. I’m going to address problems with this movie in two ways, from an audience standpoint, and a film making standpoint. But, before I tear this movie to shreds, I will say one good thing about it. The CGI is pretty alright, now enough compliments, let’s get to why this movie is a waste of literally everyone’s time and money. Some jokes actually caused me physical pain and actual anger (I still haven’t decided if I will sue or not). For example, the dog played by the amazing Tom Holland had a line after a bad guy was caught at the end of the movie and said, “Someone’s been a bad boy”. I cried out in anguish and punched the arm of my chair repeatedly. Now let’s see why it was a failed piece of consumer garbage. As the characters are having a conversation about how they need to keep going and not give up, it cuts to an orangutan in a pirate outfit dancing and saying something like, “oh look out, my dancing is infectious”. There was almost no good character development, characters just changed instantly or died. Lastly, every “lesson” that this movie is trying to teach is so in your face that it will make you want to do the opposite of it for the rest of your life. So, in conclusion, don’t watch this movie. Don’t support it, don’t give it your money, I think everyone should just forget it even happened. Let’s just let its existence fade away. We don’t need to acknowledge this movie, so let’s do everyone that was involved with it, anyone who has or hasn’t seen it, anybody dead or alive, a favor and just not watch this movie, please.
