“OK, so u0026quot;Doctor Dolittleu0026quot; is mostly stuff that would only appeal to little kids, but it is worth seeing (Iu0026#39;ve actually never seen the original version, which I heard was a pathetic excuse for a movie). Eddie Murphy is, in my opinion, trounced in the movie by Chris Rock as the out-of-control hamster. I almost wish that they could have had more scenes with both Eddie Murphy and Ossie Davis (yes, Ossie Davis went so far as to take a role in this movie).u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eSo, this movieu0026#39;s nothing special, but pretty funny nonetheless. Also starring Oliver Platt, Peter Boyle, Richard Schiff, and the voices of Albert Brooks and Ellen DeGeneres (who would later co-star as the voices in u0026quot;Finding Nemou0026quot;).”
