More on The Cat in the Hat
Description from Wikipedia:
Dr. Seuss' The Cat in the Hat is a 2003 live-action film, based on the 1957 book, produced by Universal Studios, DreamWorks Pictures, and Imagine Entertainment. It was produced by Brian Grazer and directed by Bo Welch; it starred Mike Myers in the title role of the Cat in the Hat, and Dakota Fanning as Sally. Sally's brother, who is not named in the book, is known in this version as "Conrad" and played by Spencer Breslin.
While the basic plot of the live-action adaptation of The Cat in the Hat rotates around that of the book, the film filled out its 82 minutes by adding new subplots and characters quite different from those of the original story.
The Cat in the Hat was made on a budget of $109 million and had a worldwide gross of $133.9 million. The film also opened at #1 at the box office. Despite its moderate box office success, the film received negative reviews from critics. After the reception of the film, this is the second Dr. Seuss book to be made into live-action. (Horton Hears a Who was computer-generated.)
This film was rated PG by the MPAA for "mild crude humor and some double-entendres".
