George Vasquez Oh he’s still evil, but yeah, it doesn’t mean Sally and Conrad are likable though. Quinn, even with them not being all that sympathetic, is still deplorable.
There's a reason this movie is surprisingly impressive visually - it has the most overqualified behind-the-scenes team imaginable. It was shot by the 3-time Oscar-winning cinematographer of Birdman, Children of Men, Tree of Life, Gravity and The Revenant. It was directed by the production designer behind many of Tim Burton's films (somehow, he never directed again).
I hope Billy never has to leave the show. Don’t get me wrong, Korey and Martin are still the best. But, Billy’s laughs completes the show in a way that’s difficult to fill without him.
What was disturbing was the amount of adult jokes in this film. I mean, it's the Cat in the Hat for God sakes. A book for kids turned into a stoner movie with Paris Hilton in it.
Truth be told around the early 2000s I noticed that a lot of adult humor were in certain children shows an movies not surprising they would have Mike Myers doing his kind of humor for this movie
@@ralphwiggum1982 yeah especially in cartoons like on Cartoon Network there is plenty of them on those cartoons on there and sponge bob was infamous with a lot of adult jokes
Korey and Martin are wrong. Mike Myers didn't want to do this movie at all but was contractually obligated. Sure he tried making it his own. But he hated having to make it.
To hear what they have to say when they reach the cemetery scene, I am totally looking forward to that. I mean I get that the characters are based on some real people, and it was meant to be sad, but I'm not so sure what the point of that part was. Then you jump right to the track scene. Man, I've only seen the movie in full once and I still remember a lot of things.
Oh, Mike Myers had been in flops before this (remember So I Married an Axe Murderer? Mystery, Alaska? View From the Top? It's okay, no one does). This was just the first one that got such a scathing critical backlash that it made people question whether or not he was ever funny to begin with.
I always had a soft spot for this movie. I knew it was bad but my childhood vision clouded my sensibility. It’s so random and even now I watch it in awe.
I always wonder what he would have thought about these adaptations. I know his wife wanted studios to stop making live action films based on his work after this one.
Whats weird is it seem so obvious on how to make a Dr. Seuss movie, iswould make it a package film like Fantasia(or movie 43) . Basically you would give say like 5 -10 million dollars to like 5 filmmakers/animation companies , and have them eatch make a 15 minute short film based on a Seuss story in say different style animation and with their own interpretation , with each short being introduced by the cat and the hat. Also the entire film would be rhyme, because it pisses me off that Non of these Dr Seuss are I’m rhyme.
His wife encouraged studios to stop doing live action films based on his work after this film (if you can call it that) came out. It’s kinda why Dr. Suess adaptations have been mostly animated films since Horton Hears a Who.
I read that Tim Allen was suppose to play the Cat, but he dropped out. Mike Myers had a contract with Universal that forced him into the movie and was miserable during filming.
I remember a Simpsons Treehouse of Horror episode parody "The Cat in the Hat". My favorite quote is about this movie. " I'm frightened of nothing, not even hellfires. Just please, don't let me be played by Mike Myers".
So starting this I was remembering having liked it as a kid but I rewatch Jim Carrey's Grinch every Christmas and have never considered rewatching Cat at all since 2003 and this review made me realize why.
The biggest sin was the waste of those cookies. That whole "I wish I had a different mom" situation could've be resolved immediately with a drop off at the orphanage. Alec Baldwin, if he wasn't scheming to get the mom's money, he wouldn't have been the funniest step parent.
Sad to say, my sister and I grew up with this movie since we were the target demo at the time. We ate this shit up. But now, I find more joy in ppl ripping a new one into this 😂
Fun fact: This was the first and (understandably) last feature length film that Bo Welch ever directed. Welch is known for being a production designer who has collaborated with Tim burton on films like edward scissor hands and beetlejuice. If anything, it’s a good thing this film didn’t kill his career.
It's a miracle that the Green Eggs and Ham series turned out as good as it did because like this travesty, it took many liberties to make it longer than the book actually was but unlike Cat in A Hat and other modern Dr Seuss adaptations, Green Eggs and Ham actually had a creative team who knew what they were doing.
I Billy Brooks laughed out loud here, 31:18. I understand all three men's criticisms yet I can't stop laughing uncontrollably at this still. Makes me appreciate the movie even a little more.
This was a good technical movie, in that the visuals were amazing. There just wasn’t anything else in it that held up to how amazing everything looked. It was window dressing.
Jim Carrey's also the most expressive and physical comedic actor ever, so it benefits a lot from his performance and makeup. Mike is just saying jokes and laughing, which wouldn't be a bad thing if those jokes were at least funny.
Comparing The Grinch & The Mask to this & Son of the Mask, I really learned to appreciate Jim's skills & Jim Carrey the comedian that much more. Lots of these roles fall harder without him.
Wow, you guys pointed out something I never noticed before... the cat is almost always looking at the camera when making jokes, it makes thins twice as awkward.
My father read the book to me as a child. This was the first movie I watched that upset me for all the wrong reasons. It's pure evil in filmmaking. I was only 9 years old. My brother was 5. He was scared because you can't explain or rationalize anything the cat did.
Mike Myers didn’t want to do this movie he hated the script, but universal studios blackmailed him into the role threaten to sue because he was contracted to do 3 movies with universal studios.
41:07 get the buck outta here Cat😡 38:24 Martin Laugh! 😂🤣 31:43 Bad Joke Motherhammers 23:25 put up your dukes Korey 21:43 in this moment movie got f**ked up
According to the script, the scene where the Cat is swinging on the swing with the unicorn in the background is the Cat's "happy place". And let me tell you something. When I first watched this in the theater, it was the ONLY time I heard the entire audience roar with laughter.
8:15 fun fact the director of this film, (Bo welch) is a production designer who's work includes the first three men in black movies, beetlejuice, Edward Scissorhands, and shows like the tick (2001-2002) and the netflix adaptation of a series of unfortunate events where he directed a couple of episodes for each.
I know this movie can be cringe-worthy and messy often times but I was loved it in a weird, nostalgic way. It was oddly entertaining and funny every time I watched it. So yeah, I loved this disaster fest since I was a kid.
@@chasehedges6775 as a kid watching this in 03 I thought it was kinda funny but now i probably couldn’t even sit through the intro let alone the rest of the film
@Brandon Brooks Yeah, pretty much now. But when I was a kid, I didn't know much about a good or bad mind, so I was pretty impressionable to things like this and now there are things about this film I hate, but I'm pretty sure there's a lot of films far worse than this.
This movie is the equivalent of watching someone bomb at stand-up, but the audience is too polite to boo and the comedian isn't self-aware enough to realize he's not fucking funny.
You know what's more entertaining than this movie? Reading all the IMDB triva drama that happened during the making of it. My favourite is this : While Mike Myers's bad behavior on set was widely reported, it was later revealed that he was contractually obligated to act in this movie. He disagreed with the script and the direction the movie was taking, and tried to get out of his contract. Universal sued him for $3.8 million. He countersued. They reached a settlement where he agreed to make another film with the studio. This movie and his next one, The Love Guru (2008), did so badly at the box office that he only acted sporadically afterward, mostly in voice-over. Both films earned Razzie nominations for Worst Picture and Myers for Worst Actor, with The Love Guru winning both awards. Wrap your head around that shit.
There are three magical movie/TV characters you would hate to be around due to how annoying yet powerful they are. These three are: - Cat In The Hat (human like cat with zany magical powers and humor gags) - Uncle Grandpa (A middle-age man who has bizarre powers and will send anyone on a trippy ride and adventure just to teach one a lesson) - Kazaam (A 5,000 year old genie who raps endlessly with his rhyme scheme dialogue. And uses his powers to force one to grant their wishes just so he can leave and go have to his boom box radio)
The best part was Korey thinking Martin was going to go light on the film... but reality was Martin was holding back his reaction until the Cat appeared in the review. Also "he only has so much in his catalog" is the best description I've heard regarding Mike Myers comedy in general. He has always been one to repeat catchphrases into the ground.
The military school thing about it being called Col.Wilhelm is a play on a character from the 1951 western film Distant Drums. In the movie the characters are walking through a swamp and the Col.Wilhelm character is dragged under the water by alligators (or crocodiles). As he's dragged under he lets out a scream that many people will know as the Wilhelm scream and is used in many movies since then.
I saw this in the cinema when I was 7 or 8, my poor nan got dragged to a lot of bad kids movies but I remember us both finding this one really extra horrible!
In a way I sort of appreciate this adaptation for just how much of a bizarre and out there when it came to dr suess films , one in a way i think if Dr Seuss was still alive he could appreciate
I'm not sure if I agree, this film disturbed Dr. Seuss's widow and she forbade them from making any more live action film adaptations. So I don't think Seuss would enjoy this eventhough he did make The Five Thousand Fingers of Doctor T.
My first video of double toasted and I’m legitimately mad at TH-cam for not subscribing me sooner. The conversation is on the level I want and the comedy doesn’t take from the lesson of the video. Much love
You remember when you were a little kid and all you did was rewatch the same movie over and over? This the very first movie I ever never wanted to watch again
Lol oh man. This movie was the first thing I ever reviewed for our middle school paper. I remember being 12 or 13 saying something along the lines of "only 9 year olds would think this is funny, but would get in trouble for retelling the jokes."
Me as a child: "The Alec Baldwin character is so evil!"
Me as an adult: "THATS RIGHT! GET EM ALEC!!!"
I feel the exact same way about Ken from Bee Movie

Most of the Dr. Seuss movies have been bad. Like an essence of the moral themes and the rest could have been a different movie
I guess human looking cats will always be creepy. Unlike werewolf's who can actually look cool.
Underworld for example
Korey rocking that black Tee with the white logo!
He got that toasty goodness all over his body.
Yep, eventhough in the unedited version he explained that he's wearing that because he spilled hamburger juice on the shirt he was going to wear lol.

fr? he didn't like the costume or what?
Thank God
Tim Allen was still shooting "The Santa Clause 2" when production began on this film so he had no choice but to drop out.
I remember a Simpsons Treehouse of Horror episode parody "The Cat in the Hat". My favorite quote is about this movie. " I'm frightened of nothing, not even hellfires. Just please, don't let me be played by Mike Myers".

Is it bad that when I compare performances, Jim Carry’s the Grinch was better than Mike Myers’ the Cat in the Hat.
The grinch is so much better
Jim Carrey's also the most expressive and physical comedic actor ever, so it benefits a lot from his performance and makeup. Mike is just saying jokes and laughing, which wouldn't be a bad thing if those jokes were at least funny.
At the least the live-action Grinch movie actually paid a lot of respect to its source material, unlike this movie here.

The best Dr Seuss adaptation to me is Netflix's Green Eggs and Ham.
That show is quite possibly the best Seuss adaptation since Chuck Jones' Grinch special.
So in terms of modern adaptations I liked the Lorax all for the memes
I love that show. The animation is simply stunning and the voice acting is fantastic. Best thing on Netflix.
Wow I didnt know there was a green egg and ham show 😆
@@thebatman9628 It’s honestly amazing, I thought it was gonna be another flop like the other Seuss adaptations but I was sorely mistaken.
The military school thing about it being called Col.Wilhelm is a play on a character from the 1951 western film Distant Drums. In the movie the characters are walking through a swamp and the Col.Wilhelm character is dragged under the water by alligators (or crocodiles). As he's dragged under he lets out a scream that many people will know as the Wilhelm scream and is used in many movies since then.
I saw this in the cinema when I was 7 or 8, my poor nan got dragged to a lot of bad kids movies but I remember us both finding this one really extra horrible!
I've only ever watched reviews of this movie, I refuse to watch this nightmare in full.
Billy's laugh also be sending me 😆
You're lucky. I remember seeing it in theaters.
I remember liking the movie back when it was released(I was like 10 or 11), but even I knew that the animated adaptation was better.
I remember Cat holding that piñata stick or bat or whatever being a minor meme for a while.
I grew up with this movie and I love it. It's my #1 guilty pleasure
Same here XD
This whole movie is a very unfunny SNL skit that went on for far too long
This movie is a guilty pleasure and there are genuinely some funny ass scenes lol
The cat should have been in a wilfred style costume. Human face
that would've been great
I loved Wilfred
Stephen King's "The Cat in the Hat"
Facts
Dr.Seuss IT😵
15:08 LMFAO easily one of the best parts of this video
In a way I sort of appreciate this adaptation for just how much of a bizarre and out there when it came to dr suess films , one in a way i think if Dr Seuss was still alive he could appreciate
I'm not sure if I agree, this film disturbed Dr. Seuss's widow and she forbade them from making any more live action film adaptations. So I don't think Seuss would enjoy this eventhough he did make The Five Thousand Fingers of Doctor T.
With unnecessary pop culture references and sexual innuendos.. Seuss be proud
@@Elvusmiw As in not at all.
Considering his widow hated this movie so much that she refused to allow anymore live action movies be made of his work, I doubt it.
You should do a reaction to Madea’s family reunion. Of all the Madea movies, you forget to react to that one
Whenever I get depressed, I just come here to hear Kory say "god damn Humberfloobs" and suddenly everything is so much better
They should’ve never gamble with this film after the success of 2000’s The Grinch with Jim Carrey they should’ve left that Cat in the Hat shit alone
I love Martin in that hat, lol!!
Finally, you guys review this hilariously bad movie!
By the way, this came out in 2003, not 2002
Yup I was 16. Way too old to see this crap anyway
My first video of double toasted and I’m legitimately mad at TH-cam for not subscribing me sooner. The conversation is on the level I want and the comedy doesn’t take from the lesson of the video. Much love
You remember when you were a little kid and all you did was rewatch the same movie over and over? This the very first movie I ever never wanted to watch again
I fw Mike Myers so much as a kid, I liked all the films🤷🏾♂️😂. I wouldn’t just cut this on now but if it was already on, I’d just watch it.
Yo, I literally just found out that Kelly Preston is dead now. I had no idea. May she rest in peace.
Lol oh man. This movie was the first thing I ever reviewed for our middle school paper. I remember being 12 or 13 saying something along the lines of "only 9 year olds would think this is funny, but would get in trouble for retelling the jokes."
