THE GRINCH (JIM CARREY) (2000)

RON HOWARD

Plot

A big Hollywood updating of the Dr.Seuss children's story "How The Grinch Stole Christmas", Jim Carrey plays the miserable old green git in question, a creature who hates Christmas and the 'Whos' that live in the valley below him. The Grinch decides to steal Christmas from the little critters, but his act of meanness ultimately teaches him, and indeed the Whos, the true spirit of the festive season; Ignore the rather depressing irony and the Grinch is an enjoyable and special effects laden tale.
