Why someone decided to take Dr. Seuss' best book, a powerful treatise on the environment, and turn it into a silly musical, is beyond me. But it was not just overkill, it completely destroyed the tone and power of the story. This movie has voice talent, I'll give them that, and the visuals are stunning, but the tone and music just were awful choices. And for me, it is NOT the Lorax. It is some bad Hollyweird reimagination. The animated classic is the only way to go, if you want a motion picture, but the best way is to read the book, an amazing classic. It deserved better.
