...version, from 20th Century Fox's Blue Sky Studios (Ice Age, Robots), shows a pleasingly Hortonian faithfulness to the original story; and the process of fleshing it out Geisel's anapestic rhymes to feature-film length seems smart, sensible and organic. Narrated by Charles Osgood of CBS Sunday Morning, and making superior use of the voice talents of Jim Carrey, Steve Carell, Carol Burnett, Seth Rogen, Will Arnett and others, the movie proves a funny, elevating ride that should beguile the young and keep their parents or grandparents enthralled too. For once, the G rating stands for Glorious...

...French carted home priceless works from their conquests, and many museums have bought pieces stolen from archeological digs. But Nazi art plunder is an especially emotive issue because so many of the paintings were taken from Jews who later died in concentration camps amid the greatest cataclysm of the 20th century. Indeed, an exhibition like this might have been unthinkable a few decades ago, when the fate of lost treasures seemed inconsequential compared to the destruction of families and entire communities in the Holocaust.
