I've avoided Grinch and Cat in the Hat, but this one actually looks fun.

The live action DR S movie adaptions are argueablly skippable.  However, the CGI ones have for the most part been fairly good.  Horton Hears a Who was quite well done from what i remember.

Just got done watching this.  Good god...I can see how conservatives and libertarians would have flipped their lids over this movie.  The book itself was, like Seuss' other books, a masterpiece.  This one takes the book, cranks the message to 11, and then ramrods it in your face with the guilt.  

I think the thing that disappointed me was that it didn't end like the book as a tragedy.  No, they went and did a Scooby Doo ending, as if all the damage caused would just magically go away overnight.  But whatever...the message was still strong, and compared to the other non-live action Seuss movies, I enjoyed it much.
