Some of you have been scarred in the past.
\nIt’s perfectly understandable.
\nAffectionate fans of the great Dr. Seuss,
\nRisking two long hours on a gamble.
\nThe Grinch live action, while quite energetic
\nWas quite a deplorable mess.
\nThe cat in the hat? We don’t like Seuss like that.
\nThe f* they were thinking? Can’t guess.
\nSo I heard about Horton, and didn’t succumb
\nThought it would be either awful or dumb.
\nBut time has gone by, and reviews have been high
\nand Kaylee is old enough now: “we could try<\/em>…”
\nI crossed all my fingers, and knocked on some wood,
\nAnd went to the movies, hoping it would be good.
\nAnd?…
\nIt was smart, it was funny, it made my cheeks ache
\nfrom all of the smiling; it’s really that great.
\nIt got me laughing, it brought me to tears,
\nIt’s the best children’s movie I’ve seen in six years.
\nKaylee laughed, and she cowered
\nShe cheered and she glowered
\nShe clapped for the hero when we got to the end
\nAnd wanted to see it all over again.
\nWhat do I think? Should you go see this flick?
\nYES. For fun family time, this sure does the trick.
\nIt’s crafted with love and affection and glee
\nwith some real touching moments that sure got to me.
\nIt’s not the same thing as the book, read aloud,
\nbut I’d like to think Dr. Seuss would be proud.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
