hyped garbage
A movie that not only functions as a solid scarefest but a razor-sharp satire.
While it is a pity that the story wasn't told with more visual finesse, this is trivial compared to our real-world problems. It takes a good movie to put that into perspective.
The film may be flawed, but its message is not.
Story & message are great (Dr. Seuss) but the majority of the movie tries really hard to be a little bit of everything (A musical, a drama, a romance, action, comedy, etc). Coming from illumination, there's a lot of "minion"-esque humor which is always annoying to adult people, but for youngin's is like candy. I'd still prefer to just read the book or watch the old cartoon personally. Movie: 6/10 Book: 9/10 Danny DeVito: 50/10
Mysterious , hides secretss and keep you attached till the end Full of suspense , has a great storyline and a little bit dark I believe the last 20 minutes were a little boring and I started to loose my excitements but it's not that bad in the end I won't lie , I would like to see a remake of this movie in the coming years where they could adjust the plot and make it better , darker and more interesting
Story-A boy who lives in a town with no trees need to find 'onceler' because he is the only one who knows what happened to all the trees."The Lorax" started nicely but by the time movie was finished,I realized that there was something missing from this movie.In my opinion,that thing is nice story.Although movie gives a lovely message that we should plant more trees and should not ignore their importance but to make a really good movie you should also have a great story.Animation was very good and there were some funny characters too in the movie.Movie has some nice moments but overall it doesn't have anything special. But movie is not too bad and you can surely watch it one time.Overall I give it 6/10
Now before this film was bad they made 2 awful live-action adaptations, the Grinch, and the Cat in the hat. They were so bad that Dr. Suess's wife did not allow any more of them. Then they made Horton hears a who animated, which was decent. But now lets look at this one.OK, lets start with the plot. The main plot is pretty weak because it's about a boy who lives in a town with no trees but fake designs that people like called thneedvile. He visits the onceler not because he was interested in nature. He gets in trouble by the mayor doing it, but he does it to receive a seed for a truffula tree, for a girl. Yep, that's all. But the good thing is that the plot of the original book with the Lorax and the onceler is pretty good. So the main story is not well written, but the books plot is.The animation is pretty good. The character design has always been a weak point at illumination, but it is decent. The environment is very colorful and looks excellent. So you got to hand it to the animation.The characters I like the most is the onceler . The onceler because he goes through development, and knows that what he did was wrong. Danny DeVito does good as the Lorax, but the Lorax doesn't get enough screen time, but is slightly annoying as the onceler said it best. The other characters are very one dimensional and the mayor would've been a better villain if he had been more sinister.There are 4 surprise musical numbers. All of them are horrendous. With bad lyrics, bad tune, and are very surprising and annoying. They are only a little better than Rebecca Black's Friday, but that's not saying anything at all. These songs are horrid! So the verdict overall is that it's not any better than the just OK Horton hears a who movie. It's just not. The animation is pretty good, but I forgot to tell you that the jokes are pretty bad actually. With only 2 good characters but otherwise a one dimensional cast, a weak main story, and atrocious songs, it is an improvement of the live action films, but it is still just not good. It's just not.Story: 4.5/10 Animation: 7.5/10 Characters: 4.5/10 Songs: 1.25/10 4/10
