Review: Horton Hears A Who!

Director: Jimmy Hayward, Steven Martino

Starring: Jim Carrey, Steve Carell, Carol Burnett

Year: 2008

Genre: Family

Rated: G

Length: 86 min.

IMDB Summary: Horton the Elephant struggles to protect a microscopic community from his neighbors who refuse to believe it exists.

Review:
With plenty of humor and action to spare, Horton Hears A Who! is a wild and thoroughly enjoyable ride. Although Carrey's narration gets old after awhile, the gags and slapstick routines still evoke laughs from the audience, as Horton battles against insurmountable odds to deliver the Whos to safety. Adding some new twists and turns to the beloved Dr. Seuss story, Horton Hears A Who! is a fun and feisty romp through a jungle of elephants, monkeys and kangaroos while, at the same time, paying tribute to this classic story.

For Parents:
Some mild humor

My Rating:
*****
