This film was the one where Alec Baldwin transformed from handsome leading man to annoying old fat guy. I think this is the exact moment, in fact:
Mike Myers went from hilariously playing San Franciscan poet Charlie and his Scottish dad in "So I Married an Axe Murderer" to simultaneously playing both an annoying cat and an annoying cat in drag in this film.
Look, an Asian person in a Dr. Sues work who isn't a horrible racist caricature! The sleeping babysitter here is only a MILDLY racist caricature. Definitely ageist, though.

Oh, poor Dakota Fanning… this movie is beneath you, even at this stage in your career.
Ah, there's the Alec Baldwin we all know and love! #CatInTheHat
Did @TacoBell pay for the product placement in this movie? You know, the part in the movie where a dog with an erect penis pisses on Alec Baldwin's taco? #CatInTheHat
Mike Myers' line here is probably what he was thinking during the entire film shoot: #CatInTheHat
(Right) Mike Myers walking away at the end of the last day of filming The #CatInTheHat. (Background: Myers' career after this movie.)
