I haven't seen the movie yet (though I probably will eventually because I have a taste for schlocky movies), but this review pretty much sums up everything I've heard to date on the subject:
The Cat in the Hat Movie Review
I will not watch it on TV,
I will not watch on DVD.
I will not watch on VHS,
I will not watch on CBS.
I will not watch it in a car,
I will not watch it in a bar.
I will not watch it with my dad,
I will not watch it when I'm sad.
I will not watch it in my bed,
I will not watch with my friend Fred.
I will not watch it on a box,
I will not watch it shown on FOX.
I will not watch it on a table,
I will not watch when it's on cable.
I will not watch it in a chair,
I will not watch it anywhere.
I wish I had not paid eight bucks,
This movie really really sucks.
