Dr. Dolittle (1998) follows the story of Dr. John Dolittle, a renowned physician with a seemingly perfect life, including a loving wife, two charming daughters, and a flourishing career. One fateful night, he narrowly avoids hitting a dog with his car, and the dog's exclamation of "bonehead" triggers a dormant ability within him: the power to communicate with animals. This newfound skill quickly becomes a double-edged sword as animals from all walks of life—from rats to horses—seek his medical expertise. Meanwhile, his colleagues grow suspicious of his sanity, and the clinic he once worked at is on the brink of a lucrative takeover. Dr. Dolittle must navigate these challenges while trying to keep his family together. The stakes rise when a critically ill circus tiger enters the picture, forcing him to make crucial decisions that could change everything.
