Horton is a HOOT !

You don't get a great deal of filmed output from Dr Seuss, we had the superb 2000's Grinch and excellent 2003's Cat in the Hat, but we have had to wait until 2008 for another.... and boy was it worth that wait ! This film literally jumps out of the screen with colour and vibrancy, both in the feature and the content. Horton, a huge elephant, hears a Who on a speck of what I would say is pollen on a flower, and comes to realise, in typical oddly rhymed Seuss fashion, that a person is a person no matter how small. Adult or not, this is one of the most fun filled films I have seen in the last two years, a complete hoot, superb and well worth a watch. Simple, unabashed, superb brilliance. I cannot possibly recommend this highly enough !
