Dr. Seuss' Horton Hears a Who!

From the creators of Ice Age.


Dr. Seuss' Horton Hears a Who!
Horton is an elephant living in the jungle. One day, he thinks he hears voices, and on investigating, discovers that they are coming from a tiny speck floating by. The speck lands on a clover leaf. Horton investigates further, and discovers that there is a whole miniature town living on the speck. The townspeople have their own issues, and the mayor is trying to show them the way. Meanwhile the other animals think Horton has gone nuts, and try to get rid of the speck. It's left to the unlikely duo — the large elephant and the miniscule mayor — to save the day together.

ReelViews
James Berardinelli quote iconWhile I would not place Horton Hears a Who! on the same level as some of the best animated films, it's acceptable family fare.

ScreenIt
quote iconWhile not exactly falling into the instant classic category, Dr. Seuss' Horton Hears a Who is an often delightful, fairly entertaining, and a fun little diversion that should entertain audiences of all ages.
