So, they let both Rex Harrison and Anthony Newley sing. This 1968 family musical is classier than the 1998 Eddie Murphy remake, with all of its scatological humor. This won a couple of Oscars (Best Song, Best Effects) and was nominated for seven more, including Best Picture. At the time of release, however, this was a box-office dud. Based (in part) on the magical Hugh Lofting book, it begins in Puddleby-by-the-Marsh, England, from which the world-renowned veterinarian Dolittle (Harrison) begins his quest for a giant pink sea snail. Children should find this enjoyable for its exotic creatures, such as the Pushme-Pullyou. Most adults may not agree as readily, although some of us consider this a guilty pleasure. --Rochelle O'Gorman

Rating:  - Kids deserve movies this good. Beautiful soundtrack and script. A joy to watch.
Delightful for kids and surprisingly funny and touching for adults.

Rating:  - That Dr. Dolittle
Purchased this movie as a collector's item since part of the movie was filmed at Marigot Bay, Saint Lucia. I have added it to my collection of movies filmed in Saint Lucia.
Rating: - Great movie
I loved this movie when I was a kid and now my kids get to fall in love with it too. It is a classic!!
Rating: - Reliving my childhood
Another fine performance by Rex Harrison.If you loved him in My Fair Lady, you'll also love him as the socially awkward (at least among humans) animal doctor.
Rating: - I love this film
I really do. It's simple, easy to watch, and younger kids seem to love it. It's just an entertaining film without over-the-top, in your face effects. Best for kids or adults in a mellow mood I would think. It works for me.
