HORTON HEARS A WHO

HORTON HEARS A WHO

Show Time on blitzmegaplex

This one is another adaptation based on the classic children's book by Dr. Seuss (Remember The Grinch and The Cat in the Hat?). An elephant named Horton (Jim Carrey) hears a cry for help, except the sound comes from a speck of dust that idly flies by his massive ear. Determined to save whoever or whatever is contained in that dust mote, Horton is ostracized from his community who think the big guy has lost his mind.

Reviews:

"The look of the story is an undeniable treat, and the message it weaves is both funny and sweet. 'Horton Hears a Who!' is razzle-dazzling and artful, and it builds on Seuss' words by the clever cart-full."- USA Today

"This exuberant translation of the 1954 classic is true to the Seuss vision, with a contemporary integrity that makes full use of CG power without sacrificing the delicacy of the author's springy, zingy illustrations."- Lisa Schwarzbaum, Entertainment Weekly

"A delight, brimming with colorful, elastic characters and bountiful wit."- Hollywood Reporter
