Ultimately the story wraps up with the children learning a lesson of sticking together and the Cat magically restoring the house to it former cleanliness all before mom gets home. Being a fan of Doctor Seuss, I was especially disappointed in this live adaption of one of his most classic stories, which I had initially been looking forward to. What I had expected to be lighthearted and imaginative film turned out to be just a movie about a really creepy cat, two colorful brats and a bunch of dumb adults spotting off rather undeveloped potty humor the whole time. Needless to say my 2nd grade self was not impressed and my 20 year old self detests the movie even to this day as a result. With that in mind, quite honestly I’m not too certain what the director's purpose for this movie was, perhaps it was to show that some books should never be made into movies. Or maybe Welch was trying to show us that brothers and sisters can learn to get along as long as there’s a talking cat involved. Who really knows what the purpose of any director is, although I must say any “real” purpose Mr.Welch had didn’t really come across to me. While I didn't really take anything away from this film other than a headache, I suppose there may have been a message to viewers about focusing more on one’s family than obsessing over your career or unhealthy relationship with Alec Baldwin. Or perhaps it was to get along with your
