    LOVED IT!

    by luv2laff44

    The movie was super adorable. I laughed throughout along with my 16,9,8 and 5 yr. old. As a bonus they hande out Horton ears to all who purchased tickets. I recommend you take a vacation from reality and go visit Dr. Suess' Horton.

    My 2 kids (6 and 4 1/2) and my parents went to see it and we all enjoyed it. Jim Carrey was great as Horton! Not over the top but just enough of his sense of humor! I would definitely recommend this movie for all ages.
