Did I feel like it could be improved in some areas? Yes. Did I think that some of the plot points were predictable? Yes. But overall?: the dialogue, actual interesting plot points, Awesome characters and overall FUN that the story has, have won me over WAY more than any of the negatives. I DO recommend giving this film a watch if you're looking to have a little mystery with a lot of fun thrown in ;D

Better than Frozen. No goofy side kicks and the songs it did have were well done and served a point. There were so many songs in Frozen that were just childish and I was able to skip without it affecting my understanding of the story at all.

As an adult, you're going to have moments that are definitely misses - the team needing to get back to England, smash cutting them arriving in England, or the longer-than-needed fart gag towards the end, for example. But there's also moments of genuine enjoyment and parts that I'll remember for a long time - the part with the tiger, the octopus's random slang and the funny bits with the rival doctor. Antonio Benderas' character in particular will stay with me for a while - I LOVED that final confrontation between him and Dr Dolittle! It wasn't a revitalization of the classic 1967 film as I was hoping it would be, but I'll think of it more than the 1998 version. But then, I'm a stickler for period set retellings of classic stories.
