Dr. Seuss' The Lorax
Dir: Chris Renaud, Kyle Balda

I much preferred the recent Horton Hears a Who! but it's still a million times better than Jim Carrey's How the Grinch Stole Christmas and the God awful Mike Myers' The Cat in the Hat. It's perhaps a little over-complicated and not as pure and simple as the original story, the message is still there but as much as I loved the Bears and the Fish etc, they really should come second to the classic story but they don't, they are the best bits. Computer animators may love Dr. Seuss stories just as much as the rest of us but they don't have to make computer animated versions, some things are best left two dimensional.
