The Cat in the Hat.

The Cat in the Hat is an adventure, comedy and family movie that is based on The Cat in the Hat books by Dr. Seuss. It is about two young children, who are siblings, who are left home alone until a talking cat, the cat in the hat, turns up at their house and gets them into all sorts mischief and creates mayhem within the house. 

The target audience is young children, we know this by having the movie rated as certificate PG, it was also only 82 minutes long which would have kept the children interested in the movie without getting to bored or distracted. Young children would also be attracted to the movie as it uses bright and lively colours.  Before the movie was created their was already a large fan base of children who loved The Cat in the Hat books, this created a lot of viewings when the movie was shown in cinemas in 2003, and by being shown on 3464 screens on the opening weekend they made around £38,329,160. 

I think this movie is suitable for children as the storyline is simple to follow and the characters are around the same age as what the children viewing would be, which makes them easy to relate to. Also, by being an adventure it gives a thrill to young children to see how a situation would be solved, it is also a comedy which will keep the children entertained and laughing. By being a family genre to, it allows the whole family, including parents, to enjoy the movie with their children. It also attracts children by having lively characters and by having bright and colourful costumes.
