I don't remember ever seeing any of the others and it's probably for the best. I didn't want to see any of these because they looked like stupid shows for little kids. I didn't see this one until 5 or 6 years after it came out but I enjoy it so much now that I fear the others would disappoint. This has a great cast, good eye candy, some good FX AND it's hilarious, truly.However, the music sucks aside from one song. Still, I can watch this every 2 - 3 years.

Now I will admit that I enjoy the first Dr.Dolittle Movie I thought it was a creative and funny movie no telling how many times I watched it.I just found it to be funny from start to finish in the first one now of course it was a highest gross movie that made millions at the box offices so it did something right to give it a sequel. I went and saw this one in theaters as well with my brotherAnd now we have the sequel.Dr.Dolittle 2 is still following the same format as in the first film where Dr.John Dolittle (Eddie Murphy) has a gift to speak with the animals as well as being a family man. Lisa Dolitle (Kristen Wilson) Charisse Dolittle (Raven-Symone) and Maya Dolittle (Kyla Pratt) and their family dog Lucky (Voiced by Norm MacDonald The film also features a cameo of Steve Irwin. The voice cast of the film has Steve Zahn as Archie, Lisa Kudrow as Ava along with many more that are too long to list.Being that I saw this in theater I remember how loud the theater got when everyone was laughing. It just amazing to me how well they did some humor in the film to make it work for the movie goers so that's saying something for those who found this a bad film. Sure it does have it moments that you go really but never the less there are some moments in the film that make you laugh out of control and have to keep in mind this is a family comedy so you would expect nothing lessThe theater was full of laughter and have some good one liners that I still quote today The plot of the film is interesting enough to hold your attention you just have to watch the movie with a open mind to see the treasureI give Dr.Dolittle 2 an 7 out of 10

A few months ago, I saw "Doctor Dolittle" (the 1998 remake) for the first time in years. I liked it when I was twelve years old, so I was curious to know what I would think after growing up, despite having low expectations. My expectations were surpassed slightly, but if I had never seen "Dr. Dolittle 2" before, its predecessor wouldn't have been enough to make me interested in seeing it, but I did see it about four years ago, and enjoyed it. I was seventeen, past this movie's targeted audience, but didn't tend to watch a lot of movies at the time. I just watched this sequel again, and my once again low expectations were not surpassed at all.Dr. John Dolittle has become famous for his ability to communicate with animals, but lately, he has also been having trouble with his family. One day, he is brought to the forest to see the Godbeaver, and learns that the forest is rapidly being cut down. The animals who live in this forest are counting on Dr. Dolittle to save their habitat, and in order to do so, the doctor must attempt to get a female Pacific Western bear in the forest named Ava together with a male so he can save the species! He gets a male bear of this species named Archie from a circus, and begins his attempt to get him adjusted to life in the wild and teach him how to win Ava's heart, both of which are easier said than done! It doesn't help that Archie has to compete with a Kodiak bear named Sonny, and logging company owner Joe Potter is determined to get his way! Although I found no huge laughs in "Doctor Dolittle", I did find some minor ones. However, in this sequel, I found none. I smiled at times, but VERY rarely and briefly. Like its predecessor, "Dr. Dolittle 2" contains some juvenile excretion jokes, though it is a TAD cleaner, for better or worse (since it was aimed at kids, many would probably say it's for the better). These jokes are usually lame, if not always, a good example being the scene where Archie has diarrhea. There are also some embarrassing lines in the script, such as the one Dr. Dolittle has, humiliating his daughter, Charisse by telling her boyfriend how she tried to get out of diapers early and made messes around the house. Fortunately, the movie isn't totally filled with these problems, but most of the film is basically average and forgettable in my book.Both Dr. Dolittle films starring Eddie Murphy are rather cheesy, and would definitely appeal to kids more than anyone else, but this one more so than the original. If you don't like the 1998 film, then you probably wouldn't like this one, either, but if you do, then you STILL might not like this sequel. "Dr. Dolittle 2" may have a slightly better plot than its predecessor, but overall, it is inferior, not that I'm saying the original is really that good. If you ask me, 1998's "Doctor Dolittle" is very close to being strictly for kids, and this sequel is right there. Remembering the film's targeted audience, I guess it deserves some credit, but if you're not part of that audience, and are not a parent of anyone who is, I wouldn't say there's any need to bother. After watching this, I definitely won't be watching the straight-to-video "Dr. Dolittle 3".

Oh, my, what a bad, bad sequel. The first Dr. Dolittle with Eddie Murphy was okay, but why they have to always cash in on films is beyond me. Now we have Dr. Dolittle 2, which is a sequel with absolutely no laughs. I know it's for the kids, and if anything, I overrate family films, but this stinker stunk. 1/5 stars. And, using an early '90's SNL quote,(picture of Eddie Murphy behind Weekend Update prop)"Hey, little children, do ya hear that? It's a falling star!"
