Watch the Extras too!
We bought this for our 5 year old in lieu of the "new" version. I have seen this original one before. The copy we have has an extra option that chronicles the history of Dr. Seuss and tells more of his stories in a very theatrical and entertaining way. We will not let our son watch the "Horton Hatches an Egg" segment because we have a strict NO GUN policy. Other wise it is a great video!!!!!

Homeschooling Kanga
I thought this was a cute movie, aside from some unnecessary language and violence, and the odd twist that portrayed the "bad" kangaroo mother as a weird "homeschooling" mother who felt like she needed to over shelter her child. I felt that the movie was trying to impress a negative social statement about homeschoolers( an un-informed and ridiculous statement I might add) and as a homeschooled child I was slightly offended at this suggestion.

Love Dr. Suess, Hate the suicide
The fish shooting himself in the head with a gun horribly unnecessary.

Third Time's a Charm
Finally, an adaptation of Dr. Seuss that sticks to the story the way it was written. The extra time was made up in detail instead of new scenes. Jim Carey plays the role of Horton with just enough of his standard crazyness to believable and enjoyable. Carol Burnett as the Sour Kangaroo adds just enough fright to keep the story moving.

Lame Trailer means Lame movie
The trailer looks lame. If the trailer looks that lame it probably is lame.
