Dr. Seuss's classic 1954 book Horton Hears a Who has entertained generations of children & served as the inspiration for a 26-minute, 1970 television special Dr. Seuss's Horton Hears a Who & the 2000 Broadway musical Seussical: The Musical. This 2008, full-length animated movie features the voice talents of Jim Carrey as Horton, Steve Carrell as the Mayor of Whoville, Carol Burnett as the Kangaroo, & Jesse Mc Cartney as Jo Jo & promises to delight a whole new generation of children & their parents & grandparents. The technological wonders of computer animation have allowed 20th Century Fox Animation to bring to life the wacky, colourful Whoville with its minute inhabitants & the lush Jungle of Nool with its host of distinctive animals & the result is a rich, fantastical world of wonder worthy of Dr. Seuss' own imagination. All the major plot elements of Dr. Seuss' book are present, with Horton hearing the faint cry for help from a tiny dust speck atop a small clover & doing his best to protect the inhabitants of that small civilization of Whoville despite the disbelief, disdain, & persecution of his fellow animals. The feel of Dr. Seuss' original rhyming prose is partially preserved in the sparse narration by Charles Osgood that's interspersed throughout the film's dialogue & the overarching themes of staying true to one's convictions & the celebration of the power of perseverance, imagination, & kindness come through loud & clear. Horton Hears a Who is a fun rendering of a classic Dr. Seuss story that's sure to entertain viewers of all ages. --Tami Horiuchi, Amazon.com ...
