Mike Myers as The Cat in the Hat in Dr. Seuss’ The Cat in the Hat
Jim Carrey did a great job with his role in How the Grinch Stole Christmas, and we have to give credit to the directors for this amazing work. We would think another film like this would do great, so when Myers came up with the idea of another live-action film, we were all for it. However, it fell short of being great and was a failure instead. Mike is not such a bad choice for the role, but his dominating attitude and bid to control was a major turnoff. This behavior caused the film to come off as being obnoxious, filled with poor ideas, and too much adult humor.

If they had done more with the film and made it more kid-oriented, it would have been a major success. The silly script could have remained the same, and a change in the actor’s position would have given high ratings and make it a film worth emulating by other directors. When you try to go over-the-top and do too much where it is not needed, this is the result you will get.
