- Synopsis
- Mike Myers stars in the title role of Dr. Seuss' The Cat in the Hat, the film adaptation of the beloved literary classic. The Cat in the Hat by Dr. Seuss was first published in 1957, and remains one of the top ten best-selling hardcover children's books of all time. The mischievous feline visitor in the striped stove-pipe hat makes his big screen debut with this live-action production, which will bring the off-kilter Dr. Seuss characters - as well as some new ones created especially for the film - to life on the big screen.

- Critics' reviews
-
-
"So good it breaks your heart for not being better. It is kept from brilliance by a soggy climax and a clumsy central narrative device"
-
"It's moderately engaging for the first half-hour, somewhat trying during the second half hour, and virtually unbearable over the final twenty minutes."
-
"Emerges as a lackluster and nearly charmless affair."
-
"It's another overwrought clunker like "How the Grinch Stole Christmas," all effects and stunts and CGI and prosthetics, with no room for lightness and joy"
-
"It pains me to tell you, But really, it's true: 'The Cat in the Hat' Is a piece of dog doo"
-
"An abomination, impure and simple."
-
"Attractively designed, energetically performed and, above all, blessedly concise"
