'The Lorax' was awesome.*MIGHT BE SPOILER*.
The musical numbers was entertaining, and taught the message of the book. It was nice to see the Once-Ler as human; it showed him as just a normal person who made bad decision, and not just a faceless monster who hated trees. The boy motivation in the beginning might had be selfish, but he soon wanted the seed not for the girl but because the world needed the trees.
The spirit of Dr. Seuss was in this movie. The art, even in 3-D, stay true to the Dr's. Even his message was there. Many fail to remember that the original children's book, and 30 min animated short was just that. In order to make the 89min film, extras needed to be added. Which they were able to do very well.
Overall, don't believe the reviews that people have posted about 'The Lorax'. People were looking for something bad in the movie since it was announce they were making it. When they couldn't find anything they made some up.
I say go out and see the movie for yourself, and leave the haters behind.
