Summary: The Grinch is a what?
Review: It's funny, but every year we gather around the TV and sing along with the narrator with words Dr. Suess pulled out of his mind. We have no clue what they mean, but perhaps that's what adds all the FUN! This has got to be THE most classic cartoon, and I'll never forget the one year I forgot to watch it...Christmas didn't seem the same. This is the perfect gift to any kid, whether they've seen it or not... and heck, it's a good gift for adults too. It's so classic, it delivers home a great message, and the songs are wonderful. What better way to preserve the Doctor's memory, and a wonderful Christmas spirit??

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The best Christmas video ever!
Review: If you've ever had one of Dr. Seuss' books (I grew up reading all of them), you know that they truly come alive when you read them out loud.

To hear Boris Karloff, one of the silver screen's great voices, declaiming Seuss' fascinating words is a treat that every child, young and old, "simply MUST hear"!

This is a moral tale, but not syrupy or contrived as so many of today's lesson-teaching programs aimed at children are. Perhaps this story escapes that because it's NOT aimed specifically at children. Its audience is simply anyone who loves to play with words -- which includes most of us.

Rating: 5 stars

Summary: Classic Christmas Fun for All Ages. Awesome!
Review: To see the Grinch on the crystal clear format of DVD is a real treat. This is, without a doubt, the way to go if you want classic christmas fun and a great story. The unforgetable story of the mean old grinch is still as enchanting as it ever was. Who can forget the wonderful songs of the film, especially "You're a Mean One, Mr. Grinch." When you sit down to watch the film, you will be amazed at the superb quality of the sound and picture, and no comercial breaks. * * * * * (5 stars) I highly recomend it. You wont regret it!

Summary: Christmas without the Grinch is like Santa with out Reindeer
Review: There's no better way to enjoy the holdiay than to watch this video. This movie put the "Must" in "Must See"! Sometimes I find myself repeating the lines as the movie plays on with my eight year old son. This is one of the best films of all time.

Rating: 5 stars

Summary: This video deserves 5 stars...plus two!
Review: This is my all-time favourite Christmas video. It tells the well-known story of...well.."How the Grinch stole Christmas"! (the title says it all!) But more importantly, it communicates a very powerful message about Christmas. We get so caught up in all the "floof" and "fuzzle" that we forget what Christmas is really about.

"Every Who down in Whoville, the tall and the small, were singing without any presents at all. He hadn't stopped Christmas from coming, it came! Somehow or other, it came just the same."

The video also features memorable songs, I mean, who doesn't know the Whoville Christmas song? My favourite is "You're a mean one, Mr. Grinch". Listen to the lyrics, they're very funny! All in all, I highly recommend this video to any Who of any age. Have fun watching it and Merry Grinchmas!

Summary: Who wouldn't love "How the Grinch Stole Christmas"?
Review: If you have a DVD player, then this is the DVD for you! Not only does it include famous children's author Dr. Seuss' "How the Grinch Stole Christmas", it also includes another Seuss story, "Horton Hears a Who".

"How the Grinch Stole Christmas": On Mount Crumpit, the Grinch lives watching the Whos down in Whoville celebrate Christmas every year. And every year, the Grinch becomes grumpy and angry about all the noise, the singing, the feasting, and practically the whole idea of Christmas. Then he gets and idea, and wonderful, awful idea! With the help of his dog Max, he decides to steal Christmas.

Who can resist the charm of the wonderful world which Dr. Seuss creates? You just have to love all of the narration, the music, and the whole idea of the Grinch and the Whos. The spirit and meaning of Christmas it well told in this story. The songs like "Welcome Christmas", "Trim Up the Tree", and "You're a Mean One, Mr. Grinch". Boris Karloff certainly is great but I think my favorite character would have to be the cute and adorable Max. A movie you'll just have to watch for Christmas!

"Horton Hears a Who": Horton the Elephant is surprised find a dust speck, which is really a tiny planet where the Whos live. But no one believes him, including Jane and Junior the Kangaroos and the Wickersham brothers. Can Horton make the others believe in the Whos before they boil the dust speck!

Another truly fun story! The songs are so much fun, especially "Mrs. Toucanella Told Me" and "Wickersham Brother's Song"! I also watch "Horton Hears a Who" with the English subtitles on so I can sing along! (One of the advantages of having a DVD player!)

So, to put it all together, if you still haven't seen these two Dr. Seuss movies, I suggest you get the movie as soon as possible. Great for the Christmas season, great for all year round! Fun for both kids and adults!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: cheerful and alluring
Review: the ending is brilliant
Borlis Karloff is creepy as the voice of the Grinch. and alluring as the narrator. Chuck Jones is a brillaint cartoonis. as is Dr Seuss who made many lovely books. both of these 2 toons on dvd are timeless. I must of seen the Grinch one 100 times on tv at least. you can never get sick of it. it may be short in time span. but the Grinch tale is so powerful that in 24 minutes you grow to realize that Christmas is not about gifts and toys. it's about being together with loved ones and family. that and don't steal things from others. it's a touching classic story. when I have kids someday I'll have them watch this with me. it's really a touching story. Horton hears a who. is adorable. funny. and just amazing all in one. give it a try if you haven't already. I have this on dvd and love it every time I watch it
