Charming, smartly written, and hugely funny, it is not just the best of the Dr Seuss adaptations but one of the best animated features of its year.

Parents and kids can rejoice. Dr. Seuss' Horton Hears a Who! is a delight.

Jim Carrey has never sounded more like Jim Carrey, which means the pudgy elephant seems animated around the voice talent of the wild comedian instead of around a fresh design.

| Original Score: 6/10 | Nov 28, 2020

Full of color, light and fun. [Full review in Spanish]

| Original Score: 4/5 | Nov 5, 2020

Carell adds a surprising touch of tenderness as the befuddled Mayor and father of 96 daughters, one son and an ever-loving wife.

| Original Score: 3.5/4.0 | Sep 11, 2020

It's pleasant enough; the segments in Horton's jungle are inventive and frequently funny, and the cast is fully committed if under-utilized.

| Original Score: 6/10 | Jun 19, 2020

You may see it with your eyes, but you'll hear it with your heart.

Hollywood has finally found the key to bringing a Seuss story satisfactorily to life.

Full Review | Original Score: 3/4 | Oct 9, 2009

A frequently beguiling fantasy packed with ticklish sights and vocals

Horton started as a book, less that 40 pages long. To make it a feature seems just a little bit wrong. The magic of Seuss isn't quite there. It's got the look but it's missing some flair.

Taking on Seuss has proven a challenge for Hollywood, but a nice balance has been struck here between authenticity and new ideas. This one's a winner.

Horton Hears a Who! -- Dr. Seuss' imagination never goes out of style.

| Original Score: 3.5/4 | Dec 10, 2008

What is most remarkable about this film is the fidelity it retains to Seuss' work and intentions.

| Dec 10, 2008

Lovely and only marred by a slightly sagging middle and a gratuitous, tacked on pop song finale.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Jul 17, 2008

Even if Horton's world can't shine like Whoville, this movie's visuals keeps things vivid, while digital animation is so often crisp, precise, and cold.

Full Review | Original Score: 3.5/5 | Jun 21, 2008

The movie is sweet, but not really memorable.

| Original Score: 2.5/4 | Jun 18, 2008

Earth, as Robert Frost thought, might be the right place for love, but television is certainly the right place for Dr. Seuss.

| Original Score: 3/5 | May 6, 2008

Adds a manic spin that strains to convey far too many moral messages while overloading the film with wacky action.
