The improvisations remain while the screenwriting team of Ken Daurio and Cinco Paul (College Road Trip, The Santa Clause 2) injects stronger related story points that can really connect with audiences. The animation style even mixes the classic Dr. Seuss book illustrations and a hilarious Japanese style animation sequence based in Horton's imaginative mind. Maybe filmmakers will "reboot" the live action installments later using this same outstanding animation. I will be surprised if this film doesn't get an Oscar nomination for Best Animated Film.
Carrey and Carell perform a musical encore at the end of this enjoyable one hour and 28 minute film. It comes highly recommended and is rated G.

Dr. Seuss' Horton Hears a Who is classic, i forgot how much that guy packed into such simple storylines... they didn't add much to the original story either except for the usual Jim-Carryisms.
