Review

A star rating of 2 out of 5.

Hollywood's eccentricities are the source of weak laughs here, as Dr Dolittle's daughter Maya (a returning Kyla Pratt) takes her animal-talking skills to LA for her third solo adventure. But while the goofy-looking critters she encounters (an obese, tutu-wearing pig, a rap-hating rabbit) will have younger viewers fitfully giggling, they don't give the already two-dimensional 17-year-old much to do when a scheming, Paris Hilton-style heiress (Tegan Moss) lures her into swapping veterinary school to co-host a TV show. Consequently, this is the flimsiest in the ever-deteriorating franchise: with lame visual and verbal gags and ultra-cartoonish caricatures providing scant distraction from the barely-there plotting. It's all as vacuous and insincere as the celeb culture it's satirising and even makes Maya's obligatory life lessons feel like afterthoughts.
