COMMUNITY REVIEWS

Parent Warning submitted by britain on February 3, 2010, 6:38am The main feature, the Chuck-Jones produced "Horton Hears a Who," is pretty terrific.

Parents should know: one of the bonuses on the disc is the 1942 Merrie Melodies adaptation of "Horton Hatches the Egg," which features a particularly shocking moment of cartoon violence. Here it is on YouTube so you can watch for yourself: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9G5g1H08EhY

UPDATE: For the reviewer above: I said the main feature WAS PRETTY TERRIFIC. The extras feature a SUICIDE BY GUNSHOT. Avoid them.

Wonderful submitted by Daniel Saltzman on February 6, 2010, 4:57pm A movie is measured by how good it is, not, as seemingly indicated below, by the bonus features saddled with the disc. Horton Hears a Who is a classic children's tale that is appropriate for any age and contains a valuable message. Obviously, if you dig deep enough into any children's tale, you'll find darker origins, but that doesn't mean we ban kids from singing "Ring around the rosey".
