(For Wednesday 3/2) The Cat in the Hat - 2003

Since it was Dr. Suess's birthday, we decided we HAD to watch something Cat-In-The-Hat related.

I have to admit, in the past when I have watched this movie, I didn't really watch it closely. If I *HAD*, I would have realized that this movie was NOT for 9 year olds - in fact, I am questioning whether or not it's even appropriate for 12 year olds.

Mike Meyers, who usually earns my praise, made me frustrated; angry and grumbly because I couldn't watch this movie with my child without having to explain bad words, overt comments and scenes that were far less funny than they were uncomfortable. I just don't have anything NICE to say about this movie beyond the scenery. Anything else is just...blech.
