    • Trivia

    • Quotes

      Ted: So this *is* really all your fault. You destroyed everything.

      Once-ler: Yes. And each day since the Lorax left, I've sat here regretting everything I've done. Staring at that word, "unless", and wondering what it meant. But now I'm thinking... well, maybe you're the reason the Lorax left that word there.

      Ted: Me? Why would he leave that for me?

      Once-ler: Because unless someone like you cares a whole awful lot, nothing is going to get better. It's not.

    Very Fun!
    The Lorax is a very fun movie that I'd recommend taking your kids to any time.

    It's so fun! The characters are very funny for kids and adults too especially the little fish! The fish are so funny they act like a kind of a chorus or something in the story.

    The Lorax himself is a great character, very nice and likable with a great voice.

    Worth seeing for sure.

    Movies are getting more and more expensive but this movie is fun and has a good message.
