Review of Dolittle

Dolittle (2020)
4/10
Disappointed
17 January 2021
I'll be brief. The story was basic and felt limp. The actors were blah. RDJ looked like he was confused, trying to morph Tony Stark with Holmes with Capt Jack Sparrow and in any given scene couldn't remember his style. His accent wasn't as much of a problem as the way his voice sounded. It seemed like he was whispering the entire time, trying a difficult accent and trying to rush the words so it didn't sound like the accent was hard. Honestly couldn't understand him most of the time. Antonio Banderas was the most solid but still stuck with a lame character. The main boy (can't remember his name) seemed like he was stealing from Harry Potter #1 and Spider-Man. The little girl was stereotypical. And the queen was awful. The main bad guy was honestly the only person I enjoyed watching in the movie. The pacing was off, the cgi animals were decent. But I left the movie not caring one bit for anything in it. Yes it's definitely aimed at kids and should be taken at that level, but I've seen much better kids movies.
