Synopsis
Collection of four family comedies. In 'Dr Dolittle' (1998), as a boy, John Dolittle (Eddie Murphy) finds he can talk to animals, but his disapproving father (Ossie Davis) forces him to repress his gift. Now a doctor with a young family, John rediscovers his ability after accidentally running over a dog. He begins to communicate with animals again, and soon has a queue of ailing pets in his waiting room. However, John's colleagues, worried for his sanity, have him committed to an asylum. 'Dr Dolittle 2' (2001) sees Dolittle (Murphy) having to save an endangered species, the Pacific Western Bear, and its natural habitat, a forest that is under threat from the lumber industry. The trouble is he only has three weeks to find a mate for the lone female of the species (voice of Lisa Kudrow) left in the wild and the only candidate he can come up with is a performing bear (voiced by Steve Zahn) with a penchant for junk food. Not only has Dolittle got a massive task on his hands he also has to contend with the forest's animal version of the Mafia. 'Dr Dolittle 3' (2006) stars Kyla Pratt as Maya Dolittle, the youngest daughter of veterinarian John Dolittle. Maya makes the surprising discovery that, like her father, she can understand what animals have to say, and speak with them in their own language. Unlike her father, Maya hasn't found a suitable use for her talents, and as she finds an outlet for her unique language skills, she is sent away to Durango, a combination summer camp and dude ranch, where she strikes up a rapport with both the fellow campers and the livestock. Finally, in 'Dr Dolittle 4' (2008), when President Sterling (Peter Coyote)'s pet dog, Daisy (voice of Jennifer Coolidge), begins misbehaving, he requests the help of Maya, who is more than willing to help.

Dr Dolittle (Dir. Betty Thomas, 1998): Treat yourself to a healthy dose of Eddie Murphy's untamed animal magnetism in the smash hit comedy that'll make you roar, howl and hoot with laughter! A successful physician and devoted family man, John Dolittle (Murphy) seems to have the world by the tail, until a long-suppressed talent he possessed as a child - the ability to communicate with animals - is suddenly reawakened... with a vengeance! Now every creature within squawking distance wants the good doctor's advice, unleashing an outrageous chain of events that turns his world upside down! Dr Dolittle 2 (Dir. Steve Carr, 2001): Eddie Murphy returns as the doctor, who has now garnered some measure of fame for his communication abilities, at least among the animal kingdom. Dolittle is also dealing with his rebellious teenage daughter (Raven Symone). But he drops everything when he's summoned by "The Beaver," the Godfather figure of the local forest, to help the animals preserve their home by stopping an overly aggressive lumber company. To save the forest, Dolittle has to take a trained performing bear (also an endangered species, who is endearingly voiced by Steve Zahn)--and introduce him to the wild to find a mate. Dr Dolittle 3 (Dir. Rich Thorne, 2006): Lisa Dolittle sends her daughter to 'Durango', a Dude Ranch, to find herself. While there, she must use her talent to talk to the animals in order to save Durango from being taken over by an unscrupulous neighbouring ranch... Dr Dolittle (Dir. Craig Shapiro, 2008): Maya Dolittle has the amazing ability to talk to animals, and together with her loyal dog pal Lucky she must go on a heartwarming adventure of presidential proportions! Maya's dream of going to vet school is put on hold when she gets a call from the president of the United States. It seems the First Dog is out of control and the president needs Maya's help. Now it's up to Maya and Lucky to stop a canine catastrophe from becoming a major national crisis
Most Helpful Customer Reviews
a) I'd seen the first two films with Eddie Murphy and loved them, so I thought I'd take a risk and get the boxset.
b) As always, Dr. Dolittle is always worth a watch for the whole family. This 4 pack DVD collection is very entertaining and definitely the sort of film collection I'm happy to have on my shelf. If you do not have this, buy it!!
