WHERE TO WATCH

Reviews(3)

  • It’s quite one of the most jolly, yet soul crushing films that I have experienced. I watched this 423 times and yet I still try not to cry at the end every time. Though it shows off a bit of The Once-ler’s backstory, I wish it would be more in depth, I would hope they would make a Once-ler prequel, show him his family and school life, maybe get him a girlfriend as well which would assure fans that he wasn’t always suffering. And maybe also show how he survived self isolation all those years, it’s just a thought. But overall this is my favorite movie ever and I wouldn’t replace it for anything else besides the potential prequel I was talking about.

  • I have written a little poem to review this film. It goes:


    I am a critic

    I speak for movies

    The Lorax is amazing

    Go watch it, please!


    In all reality, this film is spunky, has personality, is well animated, and sends an important message about protecting the environment. I definitely recommend it for children and adults alike!

'The Lorax' Review
7/10

The Lorax may be a movie with a message, but it's not necessarily a bad one, and the film does a good job of conveying it in an at times moving, at times thought-provoking, way.
