Dr. Dolittle 2

Dr. Dolittle 2 (2001) — watch Eddie Murphy's family comedy sequel online on iFILM. Director Steve Carr returns Murphy to the role of the San Francisco doctor who talks to animals, this time pulling him into a wildlife conservation problem.

A group of beavers come to Dolittle with a crisis: loggers are moving in on their forest. The only way to block the development is to establish the land as protected habitat for an endangered species — specifically, a Pacific Western bear. There's one female bear in the forest. No male. Dolittle tracks down Archie, a circus bear voiced by Steve Zahn, who has no idea how to survive in the wild or charm a lady bear. Lisa Kudrow voices the female bear. Kyla Pratt and Raven-Symone play Dolittle's daughters, and Jeffrey Jones plays the corporate developer on the other side. The humor runs on two tracks — slapstick animal gags for kids, Murphy's one-liners for everyone else. Stream Dr. Dolittle 2 (2001) on iFILM.
