One day, in the Jungle of Nool, Horton the Elephant (Carrey) is addressed by what he thinks is a speck of dust. Thanks to his extraordinary hearing, Horton learns the speck is really a tiny planet that is home to the Whos, a species seeking protection from certain danger. Believing that “a person’s a person, no matter how small,” Horton takes it upon himself to defend the Whos, even as he faces ridicule from the other animals in the jungle.Smarter to tap to Jim Carrey for another go-round with Dr. Suess than, say, risk another Mike Meyers debacle. Horton is a gamble for 20th Century Fox; Carrey isn’t the hottest property around town (even his g.f. is getting more headlines lately), and Carrell is busy with his hit show and promoting Get Smart. But if Alvin can do it, surely Dr. Suess can, right? It’s not like there’s been another family movie sandwiched between them.
