Dr. Seuss' The Grinch

The Grinch is bright and colorful, but the narrative feels a bit off from the anti-consumerist message that Dr. Seuss may have originally intended.

[The Grinch] is excessively well-meaning and very tame. No doubt it will please those who will always love the story, no matter what shape it takes, but you have to be a fan.

Cumberbatch... does not let us down.

It's a beautiful-looking movie. Young kids will like it, but I was kind of bored with it.

It's best for kids and adults who just can't handle the angry, diabolical monster of films past.

The latest animated iteration of Christmas' most famous nemesis might not be strictly necessary, but it's still pretty fun - and revamped just enough to feel fresh.

While there isn't much new added to the formula, The Grinch is a sentimental update of a well-known story that leaves a warm glow and is sure to make families happy during the festive season.

The Grinch will always be a great holiday classic. This rendition is perfect for today’s political climate and is very much a product of 2018.

Its a fun, harmless venture back to Whoville and serves as a solid seasonal bridge for those already ready to deck the halls.

Its lack of new ideas or interesting executions of old ones turn it into a remarkably generic experience.
