Yes. We saw it at the drive-in a couple of months ago with our 4-year old.

We loved it. My wife and I both thought it had a refreshing pro-life theme just under the surface. It must have slipped past the Hollywood execs.

I've heard that the original book is required reading for Law Students.

The original book is one of my all-time favorite children's story. Nothing cooler.

The recent movie seemed very strange in the HDTV color used nowadays for cartoons. Also, it did not seem to follow what I remember of the original book story line.

I'm not generally impressed with movies generally so, with that caveat, my suggestion is to stick with an animated reading of the book to your children.

Man, that WHO-VILLE town rocks! Like those bicycles with the boots!

And I have NEVER seen cartoon facial expressions like that Who guy.

Is this the one about Michael Horton's musical taste in the 60's?

If so, I saw the one, "Horton Hears a Hindrix", and "What thu WHO?!" but not this one...
