Dolittle (2020)

Dolittle (2020) – Dare Daniel Podcast Episode 68

“Teamwork makes the dream work!”

In this week’s episode, Daniel and Corky get their Barry-berries caught in the gears of the robotic Dolittle. This 2020 box office bomb stars dozens of insufferable CGI creatures and an even more insufferable Robert Downey, Jr. It’s a spectacularly ugly exercise in focus-groupthink that tries to please everyone, and thus inevitably pleases no one.

Elsewhere, Daniel and Corky discuss squirrel surgery, Styx lyrics, and Chekhov’s dragon.

This week’s darer: David Paul

Why did David Paul dare Daniel and Corky to watch Dolittle? “I know a lot of people still think of Robert Downey Jr. as nothing more than the son of Morton Downey Jr. But I’m here to tell you he’s breaking out of his father’s substantial shadow in Dolittle. Yours Respectfully, Jan Michael Vincent.”

IMDB synopsis: “A physician who can talk to animals embarks on an adventure to find a legendary island with a young apprentice and a crew of strange pets.”
