A winning tail...If you love animals and musicals you will be barking up the right tree to get this movie. It is a classic movie for generations. I remember seeing this and wishing I could travel in a pink sea snail. I still continue to enjoy this movie. Ah the sweetness of the older movies. Best thing to share in a movie is a light hearted and nonviolent one to family, friends, and especially yourself. Movies such as this is a great stress reliever. It is a tail wagging good time..Score: 5/5

Italiano
Il dottor Dolittle, stanco di curare gli uomini, si dedica agli animali, dei quali conosce a fondo il linguaggio perché istruito a dovere dal pappagallo Polinesia..

Deutsch
Doktor Dolittle versteht nicht nur perfekt die Sprache der Tiere, er ist auch sonst ein wunderlicher Zeitgenosse. Als Wissenschaftler hat er sein Leben der Suche nach der legendären Riesenseeschnecke geweiht und scheut weder Kosten noch Mühen, diesem phantastischen Meerestier auf die Spur zu kommen.

Español
Comedia musical en la que un hombre puede comunicarse con los animales. Aunque fue candidata al Oscar a la mejor película, apenas tuvo éxito en taquilla. Eddie Murphy hizo un remake años después.

Français
Un petit port de pêche d'Angleterre, en 1845. Le vétérinaire du village, John Dolittle, passionné d'animaux, a appris le langage de nombre d'entre eux grâce à son perroquet. Il ne recherche pas la compagnie des humains qui le prennent pour un fou. Ayant reçu, en cadeau d'un ami, un lama à deux têtes "Tire-moi, Pousse-moi", il le vend à Albert Blossom, directeur de cirque, pour financer son voyage à la recherche de l'Escargot des Mers. Mais bientôt, il est arrêté et condamné à l'internement par le Juge de Paix, le général Bellowes, pour ses "extravagances". Avec la complicité de Matthew Mug, Tommy Stubbins et Emma Fairfax (nièce du général), il s'évade et prend la mer avec eux. Un naufrage les jette sur le rivage de "l’Ile sous les étoiles", une île flottante en danger : les courants la poussent vers le nord.

Pусский
Один немного тронутый, но добрый и веселый доктор по фамилии Дулиттл замучил и достал всех своих соседей. Он не очень любил общаться с людьми, но зато он чувствовал себя как рыба в воде, когда помогал, защищал и заботился о всяких разных зверушках и птичках. Мало того, у него был такой смешной, но мудрый и умный попугай по имени Полинезия, который научил доктора разговаривать на 500-х языках, правда не человечьих, а звериных. Но соседи просто вконец обалдели от этого «психа», и тогда Дулиттл решает проблему радикально — отправляется далеко-далеко, в южные моря, чтобы найти там свое счастье, а также кое-какие сокровища…

עִבְרִית
פנינה מוזיקלית לכל המשפחה, עיבוד לספר הילדים הנודע של יו לופטינג. ד"ר דוליטל הוא וטרינר מוכשר בעל סגולה מיוחדת לדבר עם בעלי חיים, שיוצא למסע גילוי של חלזון נדיר ובדרך נתקל בעוד מספר רב של יצורים אקזוטיים. רקס האריסון (גבירתי הנאוה) שובה לב בתפקיד הרופא ולצדו סמנת'ה אדאר (האספן) וריצ'רד אטנבורו (הבמאי של "גנדי"). סרטו של ריצ'ארד פליישר (זמר הג'ז) זכה באוסקר על האפקטים המיוחדים ועל המוזיקה, כולל שיר הנושא "Talk to the Animals".

Nederlands
Engeland, 19de eeuw. Dr. Dolittle, een bekend geleerde, krijgt het steeds moeilijker om met zijn patiënten te communiceren. Het is net alsof hij gemakkelijker met de dieren kan praten. Polynesia, zijn papegaai, geeft hem de tip om taallessen van de dieren aan te leren, en zo heeft hij wel 500 verschillende dierendialecten geleerd. Dolittle wordt een graag geziene gast bij de dieren en aarzelt dan ook niet om een krokodil van haar tandpijn af te helpen. Maar de dokter heeft ook vijanden: generaal Bellowes, kantonrechter en berucht vossenjager!

Dansk
I en landsby i England hygger dyrlægen Dr. Dolittle sig med sine husdyr og hævder, at han kan tale med dem. Han anbringes på et sindssyge-hospital, hvorfra han flygter og sammen med sine venner sejler ud for at finde den Store Lyserøde Søsnegl. Denne musicalversion fra 1967 af Hugh Loftings historier har mange anmelderfjender, men vandt faktisk 2 Oscars og blev nomineret til 3 andre.

Český
Spolumajitel soukromé nemocnice, lékař John Dolittle s úžasem zjistí, že se mu vrátila schopnost z dětství, opět rozumí zvířecířeči. Záhy se seznámí sřadou zvířecích tvorů i s jejich problémy, a stane se proti své vůli věhlasným zvěrolékařem, vyhledávaným zvířaty domácími i divokými. Nová "praxe" mu však způsobí vážné komplikace v práci i v rodině. Díky malé dcerce Maye však nakonec pochopí, že se musí smířit se skutečností a přijmout sebe samotného jako "zvláštního"člověka: vyléčí tygra Jacoba, který chtěl spáchat sebevraždu a stane se konečně správných otcem, manželem i lékařem.

Doctor Dolittle, a csodadoktor anyanyelve mellett az állatok nyelvét is érti. Különös képessége folytán számos vicces és izgalmas kalandba keveredik.

Português
John Dolittle é um veterinário consagrado e mundialmente famoso. Seu sucesso é por um detalhe especialmente peculiar: ele tem o dom de poder conversar com os animais. Primeira versão para o cinema das histórias criadas pelo escritor Hugh Lofting. A história ganhou uma nova versão em 1998, estrelada por Eddie Murphy, e mais duas continuações.

български език
Филмът е чудесна екранизация по популярният детски роман "Д-р Дулитъл" на Хю Лофтинг, известен на повечето от нас. Разказът за Добрият доктор очарова с хумор, песни, рими и любов към животните, която би накарала всеки вегетарианец да скача от радост. И това далеч не е всичко. Ако искате да се инжектирате с идеализъм, позитивизъм и добро настроение, това е точно за вас. Разбира се, и за децата ви.

svenska
Den världsberömde veterinären Dr Dolittle kan prata med massor av djur på alla deras språk. Här ger han sig iväg på den äventyrliga jakten efter den stora rosa havssnigeln. Och på sin färd möter han en mängd exotiska varelser, människor och djur.

Compulsion, a deeply moving psychological courtroom drama, is one of several re-tellings of the infamous 1924 Leopold and Loeb killings. Artie Straus is the sadistic leader of the duo, and Judd Steiner is Straus' introverted counterpart. Both boys -- gay lovers -- are the products of affluent, privileged upbringings, and both consider themselves above conventional structures of morality. Exercising their overwhelming feelings of superiority, the two students decide to kill a young boy. Rather than repenting for their crime, Steiner and Straus then set out to further the experiment by lending aid to the authorities. Inevitably, the duo is captured and prosecuted for the murder. Defense attorney Jonathan Wilk steps in and attempts to save the boys from execution, despite never receiving any explanation from the young culprits of their crime.

Mr. MajestykAction & Adventure1974

The script of Mr. Majestyk was Elmore Leonard's attempt to concentrate on the plight of Chicano migrant workers, instead the film that hit screens was extensively reshaped into a standard Charles Bronson vehicle. Hoping to make a living as a watermelon farmer, Battle-weary Vietnam veteran Vince Majestyk (Bronson) settles down in rural Colorado. Despite his new-found pacifism, Majestyk can't seem to stay out of trouble, and he lands in jail, where he plots a breakout engineered by Mob boss Frank Renda (Al Lettieri). Majestyk finds himself the main target of the Mob after offering to bring in Renda in exchange for his own freedom. It is bad enough when the crooks begin roughing up Majestyk's field hands; but when they ruthlessly machine-gun his entire melon crop, they've gone to far. Teaming up with Chicano labor activist Nancy Chavez (Linda Cristal), Majestyk decides to track down the mobsters one by one and mete out retribution.
