Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaArchie and Ava end up dating and playfully romp in the lake. This is one of the few scenes were the bears were actually together in the scene. A huge circle of meadow was hotlined off and greens were placed to hide the wires. Bears were walked onto the location and then released to play and act like bears. The couple just played naturally and loved it, but two canoes were in water with trainers and treats just in case the bears decided to wander - they didn't because they were having fun.
- GoofsJohn calls an opossum a rodent. It is a marsupial.
- Quotes
Charisse: What am I supposed to do without my cell phone?
Dr. Dolittle: Here's some stamps. Learn how to write a letter or something.
- Crazy creditsAt the end of the movie, besides the music, some of the animals have some small extra parts during the credits.

Featured review
The Doctor is back...
Eddie Murphy reprises his role as Dr. John Dolittle in the sequel to the 1998 box-office smash 'Dr. Dolittle'. Murphy is great (again) as John who has to make two rare bears mate before her forest home is destroyed...
Kristen Wilson and Kyla Pratt return as mother/daughter Lisa and Maya Dolittle. Kyla's role in the second film is minimal, as the focus seems to be on the relatinship between John and eldest daughter Charisse (all-grown-up-and-li'l-miss-sexy Raven-Symone, who dropped the é for this film). Raven-Symone is soooooo good in this movie - I hope to see more of her real soon.
The animals are great, and Lucky and the Drunk Monkey return (Where the HELL was Rodney?!?). But this time, Dr. Dolittle must make Archie the Bear and Ava the bear (Friend's Lisa Kudrow) produced offspring - and it won't be easy - Archie's an all-singing, all-dancing circus bear!
The celebrity animal voices are present again, with an impressive guest list including Molly Shannon, popstar Mandy Moore, Frankie Muniz (Malcolm in the Middle), Renée Taylor (The Nanny), Jamie Kennedy (Scream), Andy Dick and soul singer Issac Hayes.
Altogether a funny feel-good film, but unfortunately doesn't match the hilarity of the first film. That aside, I loved seeing Raven-Symone grown up, so it doesn't lose by much!
