Great Movie teaching kids that everyone matters

The message behind this one is great, driven in and kept fun. A great movie based on the story by Suess, a favorite of my kids and now a favorite movie of theirs. While they already had this one I did pick another copy up for my neice for X-mas. Recommended to kids and Suess lovers everywhere!

The wonders of animation

I last read this Dr. Seuss story in elementary school, and have forgotten all but the basic premise. So I went into watching this movie with no expectations as to story or execution. I was happily surprised. The story moved briskly, the dialogue was great, the animation was flawless, and every scene was full of eye candy. The soundtrack was upbeat orchestral music, and mirrored the mood of each scene. Probably the best was the comedy; neither ridiculous nor slapstick, it is original, zany and unforced. … more

Best Family Film I've seen in a long while

Last weekend we had family movie night featuring the new DVD Horton Hears a Who. My skeptical husband (who is not necessarily a fan of "family movie night") said, "How can they make a 90 minute movie out of a 30 page book?" The kids and I saw this movie in the theater, and I remembered thinking what a great job they did adapting Dr. Seuss' picture book to a feature-length film, so I quickly replied, "Quite well, actually." Jim Carrey (Horton) and Steve … more

Horton hatches a hit

In the middle of March, with the kids out of school In the heat of the day, `cos the tropics aren't cool We were watching ....enjoying the cinema's joys... When Horton the elephant first heard the noise When Horton stopped splashing we learned that the sound Came not from the trees or the stones on the ground A small shrieky voice was appealing for help But all Horton heard was a faint little yelp. He … more

Pretty Awesome

Let's be honest for a second, when you have three of the biggest comic actors come together in an animated feature, it was destined to be funny. For an animated Dr. Seuss adaptation, this is not just funny but damned hysterical and one of the best CG animated features to date. In recent years, the Dr. Seuss films haven't exactly delivered as expected so I think most people weren't expecting much, but honestly it's really great. The story focuses around Horton the Elephant … more

Animation Comes to Life on the Big Screen.

Pros: This movie has a lot of morals. Hopefully your child can figure them out. Cons: Not too many just one at the end, of defiance. The Bottom Line: I would highly recommend this for all children and all adults. Plot Details: This opinion reveals minor details about the movie''s plot. Ever since I was a little kid, I have been reading and hearing about Dr. Seuss. But until now, we have only been able to read them through a … more
