Review of The Cat in the Hat (2003) by Thelonelycritic — 02 Jan 2017

As a kid most books,.

I read were a bore.

But Schulz's and Seuss' I used to adore. They were clever, delightful, and ever so witty. And Seuss' cool rhymes, made for a nice ditty. My favourite of Suess' no doubt about that. It was theAs a kid most books,.

But Schulz's and Seuss'

I used to adore.

They were clever, delightful,.

And ever so witty.

And Seuss' cool rhymes,.

Made for a nice ditty.

My favourite of Suess'

No doubt about that.

It was the timeless tale,.

Of the Cat in the Hat.

Then the movie came out,.

When I was just eight.

I was so excited,.

I just couldn't wait.

My parents let me see it,.

I was ever so glad.

Little did I know,.

It would be so bad.

The film ignored Seuss completely,.

And "modernised" the tale.

Every new addition,.

Was an utter fail.

They pandered to kids,.

I noticed even back then.

And the jokes were outdated,.

Even in that Gen.

I walked out disappointed,.

A frown on my face,.

I thought compared to the book,.

The movie was a disgrace.

Do not rent or borrow,.

And definitely don't buy.

I hope this review,.

Has informed you why.
