4/10Just not for me. This _Lorax _is almost all filler. The message is still there, but it's lost under a tidal wave of meh. _Final rating:★★ - Definitely not for me, but I sort of get the appeal._

7/10Good watch, will probably watch again, and can recommend. Despite the "Despicable Me" / "Minions" franchise, Illumination seems to do good work, and they really brought the zaney world of Dr. Seuss to life here, regardless of how much sense it may or may not make at the time.
