'Dolittle' (2020)
As I suspected, RDJ managed to fuck up another beloved childhood favourite. With the exception of Downey's passable Welsh accent (although Dolittle wasn't a Welshman), everything about this film is just plain bad. The casting - bad. The writing - bad. The CGI - bad. The characters' motivations and personalities - bad. I am only comforted by the fact that, due to being widely and rightfully panned and not recouping the original investment, a sequel is highly unlikely.
I think it is now safe to conclude that the Doctor Dolittle stories are unfilmable. 0/10.
