We hope you enjoy our reaction to Dr. Seuss' THE CAT IN THE HAT from 2003, starring Mike Meyers. This movie was truly insane.

Did you grow up with this movie at all? Did you like it as a kid?? 😂
The red and white striped car scene killed me
Yes and I loved it
Yes
Hell yeah 😁
I loved it
"Who's the protagonist?" The audience. Tell me you didn't go on a long, hard journey through this movie and come out the other end a changed person.
Fun fact, this movie convinced the Dr Seuss estate to NEVER green light another live action adaptation
Bro, I deadass LOVE this movie. I never understood the hate it got from everyone
I'm 17 and still think its hilarious, not quite Grinch level funny but its close
I understood it but I just didn’t agree
This was my sh*t growing up. I would watch this movie every day as a child.
Frr
Same bro
I remember loving this as a kid because it had so many memorable one-off gags. I stopped caring about the plot or anything like that and just let Miike Myers take my ADD brain away. Also, I think all the adult-themed jokes were there to make it bearable for any adults who got dragged into watching.
Why would you let a fictional serial killer take your ADD brain away?🤨
I love this dumpster fire 🔥
Its so horrible that it's amazing and I unironically love the cupcake scene.
My dad took me to this in theaters. He must have been a very patient man.
P.S. after this movie came out Dr Seuss' widow was so offended that the estate banned any more live action adaptations from being made.
@Rachel Hughes Good for her, this is just one more abomination from Hollywood.
She probably got offended because there was a bunch of crude humor be thrown in what is supposed to be a rated kid friendly book
This movie convinced Dr Seuss' widow to never allow live action adaptations of his works again, and pretty much ended the career of the guy who just two years previously had been in a movie that was largely the reason there is a Best Animated Feature Oscar, and who had also brought us freaking Wayne's World and Austin Powers. What a stinker of a movie to cause that downfall.
I can't even imagine being a parent taking your kids to the cinema to see this. Having all that thrown at you in surround sound 😂
I had that unfortunately happen to me :(
2:37 from Mike Myers to Micheal Myers
😂😂
Most important lessons from this movie: Got to know when enough is enough, being responsible, and always pay attention to find out what's going on around you.
Cat always have plan of made Conrad and Sally get their priorities straight whole entire time.
Easily my favorite reaction channel. I’ve showed all my friends and they love y’all aswell
Thank you so much! Honored to entertain you and your friends 😂
@@NiceDudeMovieNight always man
So stupid and so bad, it’s good 😂
Yeahhh this movie might be more fun if I was inebriated 😂😂 Thanks for watching!
@@NiceDudeMovieNight ofc!!
this movie is like overdosing on LSD, Ketamine, and Angle Dust all at the same time
I loved this movie as a kid, and honestly, I love it now if for very different reasons. It's just such a glorious train wreck of a film that I can't help but go along for the ride even if I'm laughing at it far more than I'm laughing with it.
I wouldn’t wish watching this sober on my worst enemy. 😆 great reaction though dudes 👍
Lolol so true, man. Thanks!!
I love this movie! So nostalgic for me.
I didn't realize people actually hated this movie lmfao I love this movie
Same, it's a classic
Yeah it’s weird to see
Same here. I remember watching it as a kid and that it was so chaotic that I found it very fun and enjoyable to watch
I loved this movie as a kid. Now at 25 I think its atrocious and all over the place. But my theory is that the director probably put too much stuff into the movie to grab kid's attention. This movie is basically the epitome of a child's mind and actions XD Just all over the place lol
See, the thing is, I don't even know why kids like this.
None of the media I liked as a kid was anything like this.
Watching this movie while smoking weed makes this movie absolutely hilarious 😂😂💯
I somehow enjoyed this shitfest as a kid, I have no idea why. Well, at least the soundtrack is good lol
It’s super stimulating, it makes sense a kid would enjoy! Thanks for watching!
@@NiceDudeMovieNight Your reactions are really entertaining, keep up the good work!
This movie was so bad that dr Seuss’s wife went up to universal and banned them from making live action films about her husband’s work ever again.
"I'm just waiting for Mike Myers to show up"
Everybody who had seen the movie before: I'm just enjoying myself BEFORE he shows up
I was in fifth grade when this movie came out. Even though I was well outside the target demographic, my mom decided to take me to see it as a reward for good grades. When we walked out, we drove to the nearby drug store because we both needed Tylenol in the worst possible way.
Holy shit that got dark.
For me personally ive learned to not dive too deep into things and just enjoy things for what they are. If this is a all over the place movie then let it be that. I know its practically yalls first time watching it, but just have fun and enjoy the ride. its more fun when youre not trying to analyze it
Exactly. Not every movie is about the storytelling. If you just want story, read a book. I watch movies for the visual spectacle and this movie delivers.
Enjoy things for what they are, not what you want them to be.
Fun fact: pretty much everyone involved in making this film hated every second of it😃 especially Michael Myers. He was reportedly very unpleasant on set.
I think the makers didn't understood that "so bad it's good" only applies if it's unintentional... 😅
"I wish I could say the same thing"...I didn't know she wanted a different mom as well?
i've seen this movie like a hundred times and couldn't tell u the plot if u held a gun to my head. it's absolutely batshit insane, though, so it's a great time
This is the Batman & Robin of Dr. Seuss live action films.
Hilariously bad yet memorable!
I had completely wiped this from my memory. All I knew was seething hatred for this coke fueled nightmare
“That was actually really funny” after every joke. Just let the movie set you free 😭
They say it for like 4 jokes out of 200 lol
I dont exactly know how Rotten Tomatoes works, but man, I love this movie. I really do. There was a time where i baby sat my 7- and 4-year-old cousins. while my uncle and his girlfriend were having their anniversary, and while the 4-year-old was asleep on the couch, the 7-year-old and I had a legitimate and serious conversation about life, sharing our problems with each other, and the amazing part is, she understood and even responded to my problems I was going through. kids are smart if you talk to them like an equal instead of doing the whole "you're too young to understand" thing.
Set pieces were good and thematic.
Everything else was cobbled together.
Objective: Movie for kids
Results: You get high just watching it
I love this movie during my childhood, and I still love it today. This brings back nostalgia
how they ever got this approved by the Dr. Suess guys is completely beyond me. this is a kids movie for adults who are ripped on drugs lol
This came out long after his death. He died in 1991.
But his widow banned anymore live action adaptations after this one LOL
Personally I liked this movie and saw it as its own thing rather then connected to the original Cat In The Hat.
When they made The Grinch that Stole Christmas, they took the time and effort to blend Jim Carrey into the hair/fur of the Grinch. Mike Meyers just looks like he's looking through one of those photo boards at a cheap theme park where you stick your head in the hole and it makes you look like you're a cowboy or a monkey...or a giant cat.
And while that film had some mild adult innuendo it at least wasn’t as cringe and headache inducing as this film LOL
Grinch at least had was more competently made
I don’t care what anybody says, this is probably one of my favorite movies Comedy wise.
You have to laugh at dark jokes in order for you to sit through this, the reason why there are so many plots, is purposely so you would get confused, it’s supposed to be a metaphor for the mother getting confused all the time because Conrad kept on just being a bad kid. A lot of him messages are inside this movie all comedy aside. But no offense, but I get that you guys are drained out of this movie, but I think it’s because you don’t get the sense of humor, or story. And I think it’s obvious that you guys haven’t read the book, because all of the stuff actually really does happen inside the book.
The problem is that the movie is based off a book. That book is genuine and extremely earnest, a lot of nuance and valuable lessons for children. Reading the book, it's clear that a very kindred soul wrote that book.
This movie bastardized the books legacy. Forget nuance, let's throw 90 minutes of children's chaos at the screen and make "The Cat in the Hat" character an extremely toxic, mentally unstable individual.
As a standalone movie call it what you want. As an adaptation? Bottom of the Barrel.
@@hunterspride18 Agreed
And that’s why I liked the Jim Carrey Grinch film.
Sure it had a couple of adult jokes thrown in but at least they weren’t overused and cringe.
my 11 yr old daughter loved this movie when she was 3-5 yrs old.
Do you know there’s a dark theory about this movie that the cat in the hat is actually the kids father but that’s like just a theory plus sometimes these theories come so crazy that you would have to look into it a lot more
RIP Kelly Preston
Tried showing this to my kids years ago annd they just gave up...
As a kid (age 5) I liked this movie. Because I missed pretty much all the dark jokes or references and was captivated by the pretty colors, great set design and props. When you're a kid, the dialogue and narrative of the movie are just the window dressing of the jangling keys which is the visuals. That being said, by like age 10 I re-watched this movie and made all the same complaints and points you did, so I suppose just saying kid is a little too broad XD
Watching this as an adult, well... I hate too many things to fit into a comment XD
The only thing I remembered about this movie is that my mom told me never to watch it again, and also I had a RC of the cats car that I got from radioshack
*tap* *tap*
"is this thing on? ok"
"you are now realising that smash mouth does one of the songs in this movie!"
"have fun with that"
please watch “fred clause” it’s such an underrated christmas movie
This is my tenth time watching this show
Lol, what show??
Fun fact: this reaction was funnier than the actual movie
This movie is glorious
I’ve never seen 2 grown men struggle to keep up with the pace of a children’s film 😂😂😂😂
It’s like these filmmakers think that by saying and addressing the crap they do makes it no longer terrible.
Sad thing is... This movie premiered in theaters on my birthday, way back when I was in grade school. I liked the film when my friends and I saw it; looking at it now...it's totally horrid. You can get one or two laughs from stupid moments in the film, but as a whole it _decimates_ Dr. Seuss' legacy.
The credits are the best part and it's not even close
Interesting fact, apparently Dr Seuss's wife hated this movie so much that she demanded that there would be no more live action movies on her late husband's work as they are wholly disrespectful to him.
Though I do still like the live action Grinch, but that might be a matter of nostalgia.
RIP Kelly Preston
Oh wow, I had no idea she passed. 😢
@@NiceDudeMovieNight Unfortunately, she passed away on July 12, 2020 from breast cancer at only 57
This movie is so afraid of being anything more than mere key jingling for small kids.
The only compliment I can give this is its great production design...and I did like the "clean up the house" scene at the end, even with them acknowledging the fact that it was set to an upbeat pop tune..... OTHER THAN THAT..... *SHEEEESH!!!*
At least Jim Carrey knows when to reign himself in, as he did playing the Grinch. Myers tackled this part like he took 20 pounds of cocaine before filming!! Is it any wonder Mr. Seuss put an end to anymore live-action adaptions of her husband's books following this debacle?!
LOL, I agree with everything you've said about this movie. I saw this in the theaters when I was 12, and I remember being weirded out and thinking, "What the heck is this?"
I loved the Cat in the Hat book(s) as a child, but when I saw THIS cat in the hat -- I think it was a parody - because they made him look TERRIFYING. I never watched this film just because of the way he looks.
I remember that one year, this kid at my school put this on and we were gonna have to spend a whole hour watching it. Luckily, that teacher told that kid no and turned it off. I loved that teacher. Screw this film lol
0:30 - 0:35
“I feel like I just took an accident trip”
Oh sweet summer child...
tbh this is just what my brain is like off of adhd meds lmfao
This movie actually looks like a movie a TH-camr would parody on TH-cam
This is my favorite movie of all time and I think that says a lot about me
CATS… The Prequel.
🤦♀️😵💫🤪😵💫🤦♀️
Dear Gawd it’s just as awful as ever. The one time it may have actually been a good idea for AB to handle a gu…
Never mind🤔😂🤣
Love it, guys; thanks!!
Stay safe & love much💖
One of my favorite movies growing up. The simple days......
Honestly you made me want to watch this movie lol 😂
L o l let us know what you think if you check it out!
This movie is straight fire 🔥
I feel like when people watch this movie they forget what the original cat in the hat story is about. It's just two kids home alone a humanoid cat walks in trash the house brings two more things trashes it more, the kids forced the cat to leave. The cat comes back, cleans up the house the end. that's exactly what happens here it's just stretched out
I never didn’t like this movie, I just treated it like horror movie without the horror.
Jay Sherman, “The Critic”, said it best --“It stinks!”
Used to love this movie as a kid, we actually had it on VHS. Sister and i broke the VCR replaying it so many times. Still a great goofy movie and my niece and nephew love it!
Edit: should also add that i have ADHD so even as an adult this movie is easy to follow lol
anville city aesthetics is core memory for me though, i still find that somehow attractive
something about colorful and pristine places where it tries to be perfect when in reality it's not
I'm convinced this movie is how I developed ADHD.
Honestly, while no I don't think it's a good film, I think that is insanity makes it enjoyable in it's own absurd way.
I get genuine laughs from some of the more ridiculous jokes, and I think Myers energy is one of the actual great things about it.
Simply put, I'm glad it's insane and not just boring and safe.
will always like this movie no matter the age i am
It feels like they tried really really hard to reverse-engineer Jim Carrey’s Grinch
I think it's pretty good it was kinda scary when he first appeared as a kid but man that was a good film for me. Nostalgia hits hard.
So what I'm seeing is this was review bombed because audiences are slow, I'm 25 and this film has consistently been great through my life
I love this movie still watch it at least 1 time a year its 10/10
I think it deserves an Oscar because it's amazing and stuff for all the reasons you don't like it
I love Ms Quan, she is watching a real video of a Taiwanese politician fighting somebody because they were basically trying to sign Taiwan over to China, and shes cheering him on! Based babysitter.
amo esta película desde que era niño y todavía la soporto porque me se los diálogos casi de memoria
It's like the worse this movie is the more I love it 😂
Yo! Sactown? Is my dude from Sacramento? That's where im from
I have a theory that the cat is secretly Austin Powers put undercover for whatever reason. Also fun fact: Sally is Dakota Fanning, who is the voice of Coraline.
After seeing this and the Grinch, I'm surprised that you guys haven't reacted to The Lorax!
i honestly love this movie
I feel like for all its faults, the grinch is honestly the closest we’re gonna get to a good dr Seuss movie.
Which one?
@@SonicMasterPrime the Jim Carry one
It’s not a bad film. But the overall length I feel made it drag a bit.
I did kind of like Horton and Lorax though I haven’t seen them in years
@@RYMAN1321 the Lorax just felt like a shill movie especially with all the brand deals yet claimed they were helping the environment
Horton was really good, it deserves more credit.
3:46 Ahhhh! When did Carmen Miranda become a mime
9% Rotten Tomatoes did do that 2021+2022 but now it’s 10%
This is my favorite movie
My fiancés favorite movie of all time! Glad you guys watched it. Also just trying to leave a comment for numbers! Glad I found the channel (:
this movie honestly traumatized me as a child
It is a dumpster fire, but a fun dumpster fire. It's one of my faves and I am not ashamed!
It's a dumpster fire. But the Dumpster belongs to a firework factory. Or meth house.
in all fairness, Mike Myers literally did to pay for one of the Austin Powers films. This movie was a favor. Anything the man dose that he has a passion for is amazing.
Bill Hader his take on this on SNL is waaaayyyyy better!
I still love this movie it’s so ridiculous but it’s so fun
I love this movie
I remember genuinely thinking it would be better if it were half as long.
I think I need some nachos, perhaps a nap.
You two are awesome!
