I loved the Doctor Dolittle books as a kid. Some of them were pretty dark, gloomy affairs - I still have some haunting memories of Doctor Dolittle and the Secret Lake . And I guess I also kind of enjoyed this lumbering musical, too, because it had animals in it. Looking at it as an adult, the thing is close to unbearable, with charmless actors (Rex Harrison is a treat in light comedies which require rapier wit and wordplay, but the guy could NOT sing a note, so why did they cast him in these big '60s musicals?), terrible music and even the special effects are not all that impressive (the giant snail looks like something I can imagine being wheeled onstage in a pantomime, not at the climax of a megabucks movie). Avoid this one!

I remember during my youth loving this movie whenever it would turn up on t.v. Back then it sparked the imagination, and of course was fun seeing the animals. But when I decades later rewatched this, ten or fifteen years ago, looking forward to the treat that my mind remembered it as, it sure did prove a total disappointment (not to mention was found to have aged badly). Having said that, I suppose that probably kids would still enjoy this.

KIDS MIGHT STILL ENJOY IT IF THEY CGI A POOP EMOJI INTO THE FILM AND THEN OFFER THE WHOLE THING AS AN APP.
