Dr Dolittle
Introduction:
The film starts out with Lucky the Dog (Norm Macdonald) explaining in narration how it is so easy to pretend to talk with your dog. He then adds, “but what if it was not pretend?”
The film now opens to John Dolittle as a child talking to his Dog (voiced by Ellen DeGeneres). He asks his dog questions, one being “Why do dogs sniff each others butts”? Her response is that it’s their way of shaking hands. His father (Ossie Davis) hears the question and says that the dog doesn’t have any idea what he said. He was wrong. He finds this out when John meets his new principal, he sniffs his butt. The dog obviously knows something is going to happen. When his father hires a minister to remove the evil from him (and freaking him out), the dog saves him by biting the minister. The dog is then taken up for adoption. John is very upset now. He never talks to animals again (for now).
Thirty years later, we see John Dolittle (Eddie Murphy) shooing a puppy out of his apartment. He is a doctor, married with two kids. His oldest daughter Charisse (Raven-Symoné) wants to be named Paprika. His youngest daughter Maya (Kyla Pratt) is a nerdy girl who does experiments, such as raising a swan egg (or so she thinks) so it will bond with her. She also has a Guinea Pig named Rodney (Chris Rock). His wife Lisa (Kristen Wilson) just wants to spend time with him. Meanwhile at work, a big medical company owner Calloway (Peter Boyle) wants to buy the company. Everyone is very excited because this means much more money. John also takes his family out in the country for vacation. After taking the family to the country, he has to stay late at work to give Mrs. Parkus (Cherie Franklin), a woman who is addicted to shellfish even though she is really allergic to it, medication.
