I saw The Grinch in a near empty BAFTA screening with only a couple of kids in the audience. But the movie is not only for kids. The screenplay throws up a fair amount of jokes and set pieces aimed at adults.
Jim Carrey is brilliant and truly has made character of The Grinch his own. He would steal the show, if it wasn't already his by default.
His supporting cast do admirable jobs. Taylor Momsen is cute and sweet as Cindy Lou Who while Christine Baranski plays a variation of her Marianne character from Cybill as Martha May Whovier, the love of The Grinch's life.
Rick Baker's make up is fantastic, Rita Ryack's costumes are extremely well made and hats off to Michael Corenblith for his production designs.
The movie itself has a certain charm and will be loved by a large amount of people. Carrey plays to the audience in a similar style as he did in The Mask.
And let's not forget that the movie carries a message - that Christmas is NOT all about gifts, but about being together.
Can't wait for "Green Eggs and Ham" to hit the screens!
