  Just not for me. This Lorax is almost all filler. The message is still there, but it's lost under a tidal wave of meh.

  Enjoyed The Lorax very much. A bit of a slow start with an equally obtuse cheesy ending and ultimately it's the intersecting story of the beanpole and his desire to be successful, whilst being surrounded by all-too-cute animals, that keeps the eye on the ball. The outer narrative works, though only, as a gateway into the inner message which is...We thneed trees! Thoroughly well made!

  As far as animations go this was pretty basic and poor, Bery predictable and the fact that the name sake is hardly in it makes it pretty boring and a big let down, I can't comment on the 3D as I watched the 2D version but it might of been pretty good, With a big voice cast I expected so much better but ends up ruining a good classic.

  While everybody in Steedville wears a bowler hat and always carries an umbrella(sorry, couldn't resist), Thneedville is composed entirely of plastic. Audrey, an artist, so very much wants to see a real tree that she promises to marry whoever can find one for her. Enheartened, Ted is told by his grandmother to go to the Once-ler beyond the city walls for more information. Once there, Ted learns about his seeking to make his fortune and first meeting with the Lorax, the guardian of the forest. In its own entertaining way, "The Lorax" makes a genial case for small scale capitalism and environmentalism while warning about the dangers of marshmallow addiction and being ahead of the curve and even Glenn Greenwald on the subject of the national security state. And while I recall the stories of Dr. Seuss generally had a moral, this adaptation is not exactly what one would consider subtle. However, even with musical numbers, this is nowhere near as annoying as the average episode of "Glee." That all having been said, the computer animation on display cannot come close to replicating the old school charm of it being drawn by hand.
