![]() O' Hare is the generic, evil, power-hungry villain. There is nothing unique about the characters. And speaking of the "bed-in-the-river" prank, I must ask how it's physically possible for a bed, frame and all, to float in the water. The prank that the Lorax plays on the Once-ler, by putting his bed in the river is a rip off from Parent Trap. The "adorable" brown bears that wander around speaking in gibberish are obviously a rip off of the minions in Despicable Me. At least half of the material of the film has been borrowed from other films. For one, it seems The Lorax has no imagination for itself. It has strengths, but it also has a lot of weaknesses. The Lorax isn't that good, unfortunately. Even with the extensive (and uninteresting) chase scene, even with the half-dozen of musical numbers (only one of which I really enjoyed), and even with the additional characters added, the film has a relatively modest running time. But I can tell this film really stretched the source material. Thus, we get the movie adaption of "The Lorax." I won't lie, I've never read The Lorax, nor do I know anything about it, aside from it's environmental message. Suess films are usually just mediocre, nothing to get excited over. ![]() I say this without enthusiasm or disappointment. Thus, we get the movie adaption of "The Lorax." I won't Another Dr. ![]()
