Robert Downey Jr. electrifies as the man who could talk to animals: Dolittle. After losing his wife, he hermits himself away behind the high wall of his manor, but is forced to set sail on an epic adventure when the queen falls gravely ill. Helping Dolittle in search of a rare cure are his rambunctious animal friends--including Chee-Chee (Oscar® winner RAMI MALEK), an anxious, self-conscious gorilla; Dab-Dab (Oscar® winner OCTAVIA SPENCER), an enthusiastic but bird-brained duck; the bickering duo of cynical, neurotic ostrich Plimpton (KUMAIL NANJIANI) and chilly-but-chill polar bear Yoshi (JOHN CENA); as well as a headstrong parrot named Polynesia(Oscar® winner Emma Thompson).

Not as good as trailers suggest
I was a little disappointed with this movie. The storyline seemed basic and disjointed. It had great potential with Robert Downey Jr. but unfortunately it just didn’t deliver.
Just an average movie, will be great for Sunday afternoon when nothing better on tv, but as for a blockbuster sadly a damp squib.

Unbelievably dire
I’m so sorry RDJ, as much as I absolutely adore you, the acting and accent in this was woeful. I could barely tell what RDJ was saying in his mumbled terrible, supposedly Welsh accent. The entire film was woefully disjointed, dreadfully unfunny and all together pointless. Save you cash. It wasn’t worth the heavily discounted £4 I paid at the cinema. Thank God I had my Tango Ice Blast to distract me.
