This film, simply put, is made for little kids to watch. The story line is complete but boring, and nothing new. The coherence of the story is poor, and many plots and logic cannot stand up to scrutiny.
But it is very suitable for children to watch. It is a feature film for young children. Yesterday's cinemas were full of little kids.
The whole movie consists of the narration of a parrot. Dolittle was originally a very famous veterinarian who had a special ability to talk to animals. His wife was an adventurer, but she was killed in a voyage. , Since then, Dolittle has been devastated and closed the animal hospital.
One day, a little boy accidentally injured a squirrel. Under the guidance of the parrot, he took the squirrel to ask Dolittle for help. At this time, the Queen of England sent the princess to come to Dolittle for help, and asked him to treat the critically ill Queen of England. Dolittle agrees to go to Buckingham Palace to save the Queen. To save the Queen of England, they need to find the legendary Fruit of Eden.
Under the guidance of the parrot again, Doolittle went out to sea to find the Fruit of Eden, and by the way brought the child who wanted to be Dolittle's apprentice.
After that, Dolittle was framed by an old enemy and robbed of Dolittle's dead wife's diary. The location of the Fruit of Eden is recorded there.
And Dolittle and his father-in-law also have grievances and grievances, and finally untie the knot.
In the end, Dolittle went to the island with the fruit of Eden, and got the fruit because he cured the gastrointestinal problems of the fire dragon guarding the tree of Eden, cured the queen, and the animal hospital reopened.
This story is very, very simple and old-fashioned, the heroic drama is well-known, and the narrative is not very smooth, and it has a visual sense of running accounts. Obviously the queen is going to die soon, and she is busy with other things leisurely. The main line of the film is not obvious. Many things that are not necessarily related to finding fruit frequently appear.
The character of Dolittle actually has a very obvious shadow of Captain Jack. I deliberately created the image of a British ruffian, but the lines and performances are not outstanding. After watching the whole movie, I remember the dog and the polar bear more.
Downey's Iron Man character is too deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and there is a shadow of Iron Man in everything he plays, just like Harry Potter's actors are still like Harry Potter. The acting in this movie never made me jump out of his Iron Man filter.
The only positive thing about this movie is the expressions and performances of the animals.
The conclusion is, children's movies, just watch them. Gone.
