- Synopsis
- Based on the beloved children's book by Dr. Seuss, this is the tale of an imaginative elephant named Horton who hears a faint cry for help coming from a tiny speck of dust floating through the air. Although Horton doesn't know it yet, that speck houses an entire city named Who-ville, inhabited by the microscopic Whos, led by the mayor. Despite being ridiculed and threatened by his neighbors, who think he has lost his mind, Horton is determined to save the particle...because "a person's a person, no matter how small."

- Critics' reviews
-
-
"A delight, brimming with colorful, elastic characters and bountiful wit."
-
"Frequently charming, beautifully drawn and far more faithful in spirit to the source material than those dreadful Ron Howard-Brian Grazer productions."
-
"The tolerance and loopy poetry of the beloved book by Dr. Seuss have been nicely captured."
-
"Warm, playful and inventive, this tale of an elephant with a spirit as generous as his waistline comes juiced with the genially goofy animation of the folks who brought us 'Ice Age'"
-
"For its intended audience, Horton's agenda is overt: Listen, be a friend, and most important - have fun!"
-
"Stays true to the spirit and characters of the book while embellishing it to overflowing."
-
"If I ran the circus, the gang that made the sturdy, witty, inventively animated Dr. Seuss' Horton Hears a Who! would get first dibs on any future movie productions of the Theodor Seuss Geisel canon."
-
"The look of the story is an undeniable treat, and the message it weaves is both funny and sweet. Horton Hears a Who! is razzle-dazzling and artful"
