I really liked this movie I saw the original classic a few times but could hardly remember any details. I think this movie is much better than the cartoon its not so black and white as it. I specially liked how they made the grinch such a complete character and gave a cause of why he was the way he was, the villain in this movie was not the actual Grinch but the Major, much different than the original cartoon. Jim Carrey was perfect for the part all in all a great movie made for both kids and adults alike.
I think that this movie had many things that could've made for a Great movie: Great actors, good theme (A US military Blunder). But then goes for an unexpected twist they try to justify a massacre, this is bull****, Situations like this happen very often by other countries (including mine) and the US is the first to demand Justice to be made to the victims. Here they try to justify the Marines by saying that their life ( the life of marines) is more valuable than dozens of foreigners. I think this movie would not be liked by anyone who is not an army-loving US Citizen
I was truly disturbed by this movie. I think the portrayal of the war was realistic and show how in war there is truly no good side and innocent civilians are the ones who suffer the most. I liked the transformation of Dennis Quaid´s character was a great part of the film. I like to think of the baby as the SAVIOR of the film.
