Horton Hears a Who! (2008)

This is actually a very good movie. Despite whatever political connotations you want to draw from it (I found it fascinatingly faith-based, but I've heard others draw other conclusions), it's just a solidly good story about valuing people. It's got some very good laughs... as well as a few that didn't quite make it, but came close. Steve Carell does a great job as the mayor, while Jim Carrey is good but occasionally over-the-top (of course) as Horton. This is the first good kids' movie I've seen in awhile... Thank goodness for Hollywood occasionally getting it right! 4 stars.
