Some might think excessive sequels to any film is "milking" it and for some I would agree that is the case but with a film such as this we can never have enough movies that the entire family can enjoy together. Minus Eddie Murphy this film stars th beautiful and talented Kyla Pratt as Maya Dolittle who is asked to help out the President whose dog "Daisy" who seems to be having a crisis. The story is simple but it allows for a lot of funny situations to occur between Maya and the animals, which by the way there's a great variety of cute furry critters here. The film has a wonderful cast,besides Kyla Pratt you have the always talented Peter Coyote and Greg Ellis as the voice of Bruce the Wallaby. Any movie with adorable talking animals are favorite among kids and adults will also enjoy this comedy with it's great cast and just plain fun story. The DVD comes packed with extras including:Presented in widescreen (1.78:1 ratio) format, Dr. Dolittle: Tail To The Chief features English Dolby Surround 5.1 with English & Spanish subtitles.Special features include:
“Critter Casting Sessions” featurette
