60 minute feature film DVD. Animated. The animation talent of Chuck Jones combined with the delightful prose of the great Dr. Seuss results in a Christmas cartoon classic that will make even the most resolute cynic warm to its sneaky holiday ... Full Descriptionmessage. Horror icon Boris Karloff supplies the voice of the Grinch, who plans on spitefully ruining Christmas for the town of Whoville by stealing all the presents. It's great, mischievous fun plotting along with this diabolical humbug, and ultimately moving as he warms to the spirit of Christmas.With the talents of Chuck Jones, Boris Karloff, and Dr. Seuss combined, there was almost no way this could be anything but an instant classic. Watched regularly every holiday season and beloved by children and cynical adults alike, this animated gem is just that and more. Boris Karloff narrates and stars as the odious Mr. Grinch, the sinister green monster who plots to steal all the Christmas presents in the town of Whoville. All goes well with his dastardly plan until little Cindy Loo Who (who was no more than two) gums up the works with her innocent Christmas spirit. Jones directed, with Karloff supplying the sweetly sinister narration and voice of the Grinch. The story is from the book by Dr. Seuss. Thurl Ravenscroft (of "Tony the Tiger" breakfast commercial fame) provides the memorable bass singing voice for the tune "You're a Mean One, Mister Grinch." Filled with close attention to comic detail, memorable characterizations, and delightful wordplay, this is essential holiday viewing for the whole family. Television premiere: December 23, 1966.

Feeling exhausted and unappreciated by the children of the world, Santa Claus decides to take a year off from Christmas. Unable to rouse him from his sickbed, Mrs. Claus sends elves Jingle and Jangle and the reindeer Vixen to bring back proof that children still hold faith and admiration for Christmas. After narrowly escaping the clutches of villains Heat Miser and Snow Miser, the elves arrive in South Town, USA. There they are immediately ticketed by a policeman, and Vixen is thrown into an animal pound. When Santa Claus learns of their perils, he jumps from his bed and goes to the rescue.

How The Grinch Stole Christmas Movie Review Average Rating: (3 out of 5 stars)   Grinch
Your Un-American if you don't love this Christmas Special!

Was This Review Helpful? Yes No  Classic Tradition
In my honest opinion, you can never go wrong with a classic; not to mention the fact that this is a Dr. Seuss classic. I've loved this movie since I was a child. Every year, my mother and I would watch this movie. Now that I'm on my own, I plan on continuing this tradition for as long as I can. This is one of those movies you can watch and never grow tired of. My mother loved it, I love it, and hopefully my future children will love it.

This review is for a different format. One of the Best!
The animated "Grinch" and "Charlie Brown Christmas" are the absolute best Christmas specials. I simply cannot imagine anyone but Boris Karloff doing the voice-over for the Grinch - he was perfect! A simple story of the redemption of a sad soul told in a gentle and humorous fashion.
