Sent on a forced vacation to a five-star hotel, Dr. Dolittle learns from his pet monkey Chi-Chi that an epidemic has broken out among the animals in Africa. Together with Chi-Chi, he embarks on a journey to Africa aboard a tourist hot air balloon. The duo soon discovers that the epidemic is the work of the villainous robber Barm`o`Ley, who can deny nothing to his young daughter Lea. Barm`o`Ley kidnaps baby animals to stock his daughter’s private zoo. However, after meeting Dr. Dolittle, Lea begins to reconsider her attitude toward animals — and ultimately reforms her father, Barm`o`Ley.

Taking a diehard revolutionary who wants to leverage the memorial of the october revolution to carry the project forward instead of into regressive trends, and changing it into an embittered baltic state soviet who decides to defect with his entire submarine and crew unknowing except a cohort of specially picked boat officers. Thats like re-writing "the island of dr moreau" into "Dr Dolittle".
If Tom Clancy wasn't on the payroll of a US state agency, he should have been.
I loved the film. Sam Neil writes hilariously about the filming. But if you loved the film and "bought the book" you'd be in for a serious disappointment if you didn't buy Tom Clancy.
