Summary: this dvd is stupid
Review: *THIS IS FOR THE DVD NOT THE MOVIE*
the movie the grinch is great and i love the story but what made me give this dvd a one * (star) is because they brought out the collector's edition last year and now they have the deluxe edition which has more special features but those of us who bought the first one can't get the new one because who wants two of the same movie. all i'm saying is if you have the first one don't buy this one.

Rating: 5 stars

Summary: Your a vile one Mr. Grinch
Review: After walking out of the theater I regreted paying to see it. Owning it would be throwing good money after bad. I've seen much better remakes done by Golan and Globus. Why a wonderus, joyfull, entertaining story needs a rewrite is beyond me. Stay away from this one, get the original 1966 TV version directed by Chuck Jones with Boris Karloffs hauntingly memorible narration and the voice of Tony the Tiger singing the Grinch theme. As for the remake I wouldn't touch it with a 39 and a half foot pole.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: The WORST remake of all time
Review: This movie is the worst remake, well, the worst movie of all time. It takes the wonderful story of the Grinch and stretches too thin. The acting, script and storyline are terrible.

Even without the comparison to the original, this movie can not stand on its own.

I could not finish watching this movie, it was that bad. My friends watching it with me literally fell asleep.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Yellow Snow
Review: ...Folks, I wish I were a better scribe so that I could just tell you how [bad]this movie is. I'll just sum up the plot a bit: the Grinch is the good guy and the Whos down in Whoville are the bad guys who love the commercialization of Christmas. Oh, and isn't that Who wife-swapping party a nice touch in a family picture?

That sound you hear is Dr. Seuss spinning in his grave...

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Entertainment at its most envious
Review: Its the classic tale of the hate-filled outcast who with time grows to be accepted into society. In this instance, the Grinch, a hideous abnormality that lives off his passion for yuletide misery, is eventually persuaded from obscurity to join the Whos in their picture-perfect village. Under the layers of leathery green skin, Jim Carrey is instantly recogniseable as he writhes and extends his facial features to the limit capturing the loveable rogue stature perfectly. Ron Howard's takes charge of the direction and provides an magical yet comprehendable depiction of the dedicated Whos as they prepare for the festivities. Its not laugh a minute entertainment but it is inventively produced and provides a credible reproduction of Dr Seuss classic childrens stories. Hilarious in parts and cringeworthy in others, this is family fun encroaching upon the the best in DVD entertainment.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Could've been a lot better........
Review: Before I went to the theater to see this movie I heard on the radio that this movie was going to be "the next Wizard of Oz", but it wasn't! I enjoyed it a little bit, but haven't cared to see it again. Co-star Taylor Momsen makes a very unconvincing Cindy Lou Who. She should've won a Golden Raseberry Award for 'worst supporting actress' or something. Jim Carry is kind of funny but not as cruel and bitter as the Grinch in the cartoon. I'd rather stick with the Wizard of Oz than this. But everyone has a right to their own opinion. Rent it first. Then decide on whether or not you wish to by this.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Why is no one getting it
Review: This is a good film and no one is buying it. You are going to love it. I swear. I'm telling the truth. Jim Carrey is the best actor ever in this movie. You will like it and The Cat in the Hat which is coming in 2003. This will change my entire lukon life. Really? NO.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A new classic.
Review: "The Grinch who Stole Christmas" is and remains a classic holiday cartoon/storybook. It is about life lessons being taught when you don't even think you're being taught anything! I also love Jim Carry. Guess what Jim Carrey and The Grinch mix, and they mix big time. The storyline was changed quite a bit but t doesn't make this any worse than the original.

The Grinch is strange ol' creature who livs at the top of Mt. Crumpet. Some reason he is the most feared craeture in all of who ville. His only friend is his dog Max. You know the story...

I would reccomend this. Grade A+...

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A Wonderful Christmas Movie!!
Review: The Grinch truly lives up to the cartoon. The naration is almost word for word like the cartoon. Until, this movie I never imagined Jim Carrey as the Grinch. But Jim Carrey did a *FANTASTIC* job at playing the Grinch. I have seen several of Jim Carrey's films, and The Grinch is one of my all time favorites. I have the movie on VHS but I hope to get it on DVD before the Christmas season. Jim Carrey was the perfect choice to play the Grinch.
