Dolittle Arrives For Home Viewing Early This Spring | Digital, 4K Ultra HD, Blu-ray, DVD

March 23, 2020 By Tina Leave a Comment

He’s just not a people person!  How appropriate for the time we are currently experiencing, right?  I mean, Dr. Dolittle IS the quintessential example of social distancing.  So, why not, while practicing our own versions of social distancing, pick up a copy of Universal Pictures Home Entertainment re-imagining of the classic, DOLITTLE?  The movie arrives on digital tomorrow, March 24th, and on 4K Ultra HD, Blu-ray, DVD and On Demand April 7th!  I’ll go make the popcorn!


I received a physical copy of the movie in order to facilitate this post.  All opinions, however, are mine and mine alone.  In addition, this post may contain affiliate links.  Please see my Disclosure policy for more information.


THE DOLITTLE ADVENTURE ARRIVES FOR HOME VIEWING

Robert Downey Jr. (Avengers: Endgame, Sherlock Holmes) takes on the key role in DOLITTLE, a movie that takes the whole family on an epic journey with a wild menagerie of characters!  Such characters are voiced by the immense talent of Academy® Award winner Emma Thompson (Last Christmas, Late Night), Academy® Award winner Rami Malek (Bohemian Rhapsody, “Mr. Robot”), Selena Gomez (“Wizards of Waverly Place”), John Cena (“WWE”), and Tom Holland (Spider-Man: Homecoming) and more. The film is directed by Stephen Gaghan (Syriana) and produced by Robert Downey Jr. and Susan Downey (awwww – love it when a married couple works together!).  In short, we’re talking an ALL-STAR CAST here!!

About the movie

When it comes Robert Downey Jr., the actor provides an electrifying performance as the man who has the ability to talk to animals.   After losing his wife, Dolittle hermits himself away behind the high wall of his manor.  However, when the queen falls gravely ill, he is is forced to embark upon an epic adventure that takes him to the high seas.  Helping Dolittle in search of a rare cure are his rambunctious animal friends, which include the likes of Chee-Chee (an anxious, self-conscious gorilla), Dab-Dab (an enthusiastic, but bird-brained duck), the bickering duo of cynical, neurotic ostrich and chilly-but-chill polar bear Yoshi, as well as a headstrong parrot named Polynesia.

I saw the movie when it was in theaters.  Curious about the details surrounding what I thought?  Check out my detailed, formal review right here: Dolittle | A Footprints Review – Is It An Adventure Worth Taking?
