Dr. Dolittle 2 Reviews
Animal-vet antics a la Murphy; some potty humor.
| Original Score: 3/5 | Dec 22, 2010
Murphy, who was upstaged by the talking animals in the original, brings bite as well as bark to the funnier sequel.

A likeable, sporadically funny movie that will satisfy the less demanding tot.

Like any good vaudeville routine, this one is getting better with practice.

It's dispiriting to watch [Murphy] stand patiently by and concoct reaction shots for quipping raccoons and dancing bears.

Tepid fare that suffers from a majority of the problems that plague so many sequels these days.
| Original Score: 2/5 | Jun 25, 2001
While this Dolittle does too little, it's harmless.
| Original Score: 2.5/4 | Jun 22, 2001
Forgotten almost as quickly as it's watched.

It's silly, but it means well, which is definitely more than can be said about a lot of movies coming out this summer.

Do little says it all.
| Original Score: 2/4 | Jun 22, 2001
Eddie Murphy goes animal crackers again -- and reminds us how truly funny he can be.

A fast, fat paycheck for star Eddie Murphy.

An innocuous -- and disarmingly unpretentious -- family film.

Uneven, but good-natured and occasionally very funny.

Offers benign Darwinian amusement for young animal lovers and parents in search of 90 minutes of air-conditioning.

The talking animals, a seamless combination of special effects and puppets, delighted the young audience at a preview I attended. Even the adults seemed to be having a good time with Dr. Dolittle 2.
