I wanted to drop-kick the little "baby" lemur in Madagascar. Talk about a movie that had potential but took a prompt nose-dive as soon as it started. I'm not impressed with Dreamworks' CG movies, but I always hope that soon, one of them will be really good. Currently hoping for Kung Fu Panda right now... Pleeeeeease be good...

Anyways... yow.

It's a shame really, because visually this thing is all you could want for a CG adaption of a Suess book. The characters are dead on and the rendering, shaders etc. are gorgeous. But then the characters open their mouths (especially Jim Carrey *involuntary shudder*). The animation isn't even bad (though I agree, the mouth shapes aren't terribly Suessian) but I thought Horton was a more timid elephant, not a smooth, suave, well... Jim Carrey personality clone.

Oy. So close, and yet, so far.

I will give it one thing. At least Jim Carrey and Steve Carell aren't in really ugly live action Seuss like costumes like this one...
