Horton Hears a Who

3.5 STARS

It's pretty funny - but I'm a big fan of the CG (computer graphic) comedy. It wasn't as good as most of Pixar's films, but I thought it was an excellent rendition of the famous Dr. Suess story.

The characters were amazing. They looked like and acted like I imagine Dr. Suess would have imagined. I admit, there were parts that were less entertaining - parts that I'm sure were there only for the very young - but it certainly had it's moments of genius.

If you like CG cartoons, I recommend it. If your not a cartoon person... you should probably avoid this film.

I thought this was fun, but not a favorite. Pretty average for a cartoon. I appreciated that Jim Carrey wasn't oozing Jim Carrey-ness in this movie and that he was not crude like in the Grinch. I felt like he was portraying "Horton" versus "Jim Carrey as Horton."

Our brother-in-laws would appreciate the dentist scene. It was hilarious and had Will laughing his crazy "I just can't take it" laugh (complete with knee slapping). You know, the laugh everyone else in the theater laughs at more than the actual scene in the movie. You may have heard it when we saw the little Muppet movie at California Adventure.
