This movie is a fantastic spin on the original (1966) animated flick directed by Chuck Jones. Ron Howard does a superior job in directing Jim Carrey as the new Grinch, but I must say it lacks a certain something when you lose the amazing voice narration of Boris Karloff. The storyline hasn't changed much from Dr. Seuss' book- the grumpy Grinch, who despises Christmas, becomes exasperated by the activity of the who's and decides to ruin Christmas. HIs evil-doer plan? Steal everything associated with Christmas, from the presents to the trees to the infamous roast beast! Of course, it's Christmas, so no evil-doing can stay done for long and the Grinch soon learns the real meaning of Christmas- just in time to celebrate. The few additions this movie adds into the story to plump up the plot are welcome and wholesome enough for the family to enjoy while still bringing laughs for the grown-ups. The animation is perfect and so detailed you feel a part of whoville. Overall rating- 4.5 stars

The Grinch was my favorite Christmas character growing up. Jim Carrey is so talented in this film. His expressions are priceless. He draws you in. I dont even have children but love this movie every year - it is definitely a movie for "kids" of all ages.

This is such a classic story and one that I grew up watching in animated form during the holidays. Jim Carrey is great in this version and one I've watched with my own children. I like that the story has a moral to it and shows how things can change when you have a good heart.

I think Jim Carey played a fantastic GRINCH. The movie is for all ages and keeps you entertained.

Kids favorite One of the top christmas family movies we see it many many times during the holidays kids love it

I've enjoyed watching this with my grandchildren and I'm now getting to enjoy it with my great grandson who is three.

BEST CHRISTMAS MOVIE OF ALL TIME AND I DONT EVEN CELEBRATE. I LOVE THE STORY LINE AND JIM CARREY IS GREAT TOO!!!

We watch this every year when this comes around Christmas is the movie we'll enjoy watching

I love this spin on the classic movie. Jim Carry plays The Grinch well. He is so funny. My daughter and I like to sit down every Christmas and watch this movie. We never get tired of it. The Grinch meanness and his attempt to scare the little girl is so hilarious. At the end, it's nice to see his change of heart. The graphics are incredible.

Book brought to life! Could not have been done better! Excellent choice with Jim Carey !

One of Our Family Favorites One of our family favorites. We loved seeing the set props at Universal. Was a real highlight. Jim Carrey is great in this. We always like the great big bite of the onion and deodorant.

One of my favorites I have seen this many times. The acting is great and it is a wonderful movie for the whole family for the holidays!

Jim Carrey is an amazing actor. I love this movie. It has become a Christmas Tradition movie.

Best Christmas Movie HANDS DOWN! Nothing gets me into the Christmas Spirit quicker than How The Grinch Stole Christmas. I've loved this movie ever since it 1st came out, as a kid. Now I get to share my love for it with my two babes. It always comes on around Christmastime, and I get to snuggle up on the couch with my two little loves while we watch Jim Carrey perform one of his best roles- The Grinch. He plays his character as The Grinch PERFECTLY. The entire movie is full of clever comedic moments, vivid imagery and really beautiful decor. It's A must see! Great for all ages. Timeless Classic that never gets old.

this is my favorite movie to watch around Christmas time!Tradition to watch with the family!
