Pros: Entertaining Christmas movie. Cons: Carrey goes a bit over the top at times.
Christmas movies can be hit or miss, with some being so much better than others. There are several Christmas movies that I really enjoy and I watch them every year. I do like a few that the majority of people seem to hate. The live action How ...
Pros: The make-up; Jim Carrey in the lead role Cons: Not entirely like the original, which will offend traditionalists
Holidays are about many different things, and one of the many important components of the Christmas holiday season is television/movie viewing. Holiday specials abound this time of the year, with many classic Christmas movies and programs shown over and ...
Pros: Looks great, Jim Carrey's Grinch Cons: The story doesn't work on any level.
I've been a fan of Dr. Seuss's book and the Boris Karloff TV version of How the Grinch Stole Christmas my entire life. I'd have the book read to me year round. In fact, at one point, I had it memorized. When I first heard about this movie, I ...
Pros: Dr. Seuss didn't live to see this. Cons: This movie is an insult to Seuss's memory.
How dare Ron Howard sully the memory of Dr. Seuss the way he did!
Theodor Seuss Geisel gave us two delightful versions of How The Grinch Stole Christmas. First, he wrote the book. Then, he adapted his book to television. Howard clearly...
Pros: wonderful story with amazing scenery and make-up and two very endearing characters Cons: I would have skipped the Martha May element; it was unnecessary and often obnoxious
I suspect I was not the only one whose eyes widened with astonishment at the prospect of a live-action version of that undisputed Christmas classic, How the Grinch Stole Christmas. How would they be able to create, with real people, the utterly...
The 2000 remake of How The Grinch Stole Christmas is one of the hardest movies for me to review. Most of the reviews I've seen of it have either panned it or praised it to high heaven. Since I neither loved it nor hated it, it's hard to develop a ...
Pros: Jim Carrey steals the show; Taylor Momsen as Cindy Lou Who comes in a close second Cons: Why on earth was this movie even made?
He’s perched on a summit high above the rest of us going about our daily lives; he’s smacking his lips and rubbing his green-as-money hands together; he’s ready to descend on us and steal all the joy from our holiday season.
Bah Humbug! Sorry, I find myself in small company in not liking this loud and annoying movie, which doesn't even come close to the magic of READING the story to your child yourself.
It surprised me to feel this way, because I am a Carrey Fan...
Pros: Carrey's amazing and so are the rhymes. Cons: The script peters out about 3 or 4 times.
It’s the month before Christmas when the big movies open
To snag all our money, the producers are hopin’
Ron Howard’s new comedy features the Grinch
With Jim Carrey on hand, it’s a blockbuster cinch.
Pros: Jim Carrey Is a Funny Grinch, Max The Dog Is Cute Cons: The Story Line Of This Movie is NOT What I expected and I Can't Believe The Movie is This bad!
For months now or perhaps even a year, there's been a great hoopla about Jim Carrey's performance of The Grinch based on the popular Dr. Seuss book, How The Grinch Stole Christmas. In my personal opinion, the advertising on both...
This classic tale, written by Dr. Seuss, has always been one of my favorites. I love the book and the animated show, which I have watched faithfully every year since I was a little girl. When I heard that a full-length motion picture was being made of...
Pros: Jim Carrey is good as the Grinch -- but given waaaay too much free reign to improvise, the original story is in the middle of this junk somewhere... Cons: Where to begin? 1 1/2 hours of extraneous pandering to the lowest possible denominator, a completely bogus retelling of one of the greatest Christmas tales...
Do you hear that sound? That thumping? It's not the Grinch's heart growing - it's my beloved Dr. Seuss rolling in his grave. Like everyone, my anticipation for Dr. Seuss' How the Grinch Stole Christmas gradually rose month by month this year....
Pros: Jim Carrey can be funny Cons: The film is not as sunny
SomeWho Down in Who-ville may like The Grinch a lot... Others will be sad when they are a who who Did NOT! The Grinch rings in the Christmas season, but the film just does not tick for some reason.
Pros: Unbelievable Visuals... Cons: Not True to the Spirit of the Book
After watching Ron Howard's version of How The Grinch Stole Christmas, which is far, far removed from the classic tale written by Dr. Suess, I can only think that the beloved children's book writer is rolling in his grave.
Pros: Stunning set design Cons: Shameless commercialization of a pop-culture icon contradicts the message of the story
Ron Howard’s How the Grinch Stole Christmas is the clearest indicator of Hollywood’s creative stagnation that I’ve yet seen. I’ve never understood the entertainment industry’s incessant need to remake artistic works that were perfect--or at...
