Horton Hears A Who! (EOTWS)

End Of The Week Shorts 16.2 extract: Horton Hears A Who! (2008)



A fantastic family movie bursting at the seams with fun, it's difficult not to like Horton Hears A Who. The animation and world building throughout are spectacular, the direction is surprisingly good and the voice performances by Carey, Carell and Burnette work wonders. There are a few dud jokes and plot-holes in the script, but it does well in producing a joyous narrative about unity and looking out for the little guys. Whilst this is dumbed down a bit and this film in general presents itself as more of a kids' movie rather than a family movie at times, there is very little to fault with Horton Hears A Who. 
So, whilst I wouldn't say that this is a perfect movie, I'm sure this is one that'll be remembered as a lot of fun for many years to come.
