How the Grinch Stole Christmas

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

Review: 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...

Pros: Funny, great for kids

Cons: none

Review: 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: Great Acting, Hilarious, Great For All Ages, Colorful, Happy, Christmas-y

Cons: Zippo, None, Nada

Review: I am an avid Christmas season lover. I adore everything that has to do with the holidays - the lights, the carol singing, the presents, and most importantly: the holiday movies. All my favorite movies have to do with Christmas: Home Alone, A...

Pros: Funny for all ages. Special effects. Jim Carrey

Cons: Nothing

Review: I can't believe that it is Christmas again! Every year, a myriad of Christmas movies are played on TVE, and new ones are released into the theaters. This year, Jim Carrey starred in one of the best Christmas movies of all time. It is funny,...

Pros: Excellent acting, classic story with a new twist

Cons: not for young children due to some distasteful humor

The Bottom Line: A Christmas must see for Seuss and Carrey fans.

Pros: Colorful, funny, super acting and makup

Cons: Some think it strays too far from the original Grinch

Review: Every year since I was a small child, I’ve looked forward to the annual holiday shows. From October’s ‘It’s the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown’ to all the December classics, I make sure to catch them all. Out of all of them, I look forward to Dr. Seuss’...

Pros: Jim Carrey!, Live-Action, Make-up, Effects

Cons: None

Review: The Grinch


Fabulous!!! Doesn't it seem like such a simple story? The Grinch tries to keep Christmas from the people of Whoville, only to realize that the spirit goes much deeper than tinsel and toys. My girlfriend and I just...

Pros: Ron Howard's entire cinematic concept and Jim Carrey's inspired portrayal of The Grinch

Cons: It's a bit more raunchy and rowdy than the book or the cartoon version

Review: It's Christmas coming early with this heart-warming gift of a live-action comedy fantasy. Ron Howard's enchanting screen adaptation of Dr. Seuss' story not only tells the tale of the Whos in Whoville but the imaginative screenplay by Jeffrey...

Pros: Costumes, everything!!!

Cons: None

Review: So that in itself has to tell you something! My son is not easily amused by television and he's quite a busy, hyper little guy so we were taking a chance with including him in the family outing to see this movie at the local theater.

We went...

Pros: Funny, Original, Creative, and an instant classic!

Cons: nothing....

Review: Have you ever seen a preview and knew that it was going to be the worst movie ever? Well that is what my first reaction to the previews for the Grinch who stole Christmas. I grew up on the cartoon version that has become tradition to show every year...
