"Heinous."
-- Gregory Weinkauf, NEW TIMES


"Comes scarily close to being the most unendurable Hollywood creation of the last dozen years.Teens, it needn't be said, should have better things—drugs, humping, Matrix sequels—with which to squander their weekends. "
-- Michael Atkinson, VILLAGE VOICE


LOL. I knew it was a bad idea after viewing 20 minutes of that monstrosity "The Grinch".

Do you guys think that Jim Cary would have been a better choice for the Cat in the hat, rather than Mike Myers?

Cary was great as the grinch :nod:

Yes, and he'll sleep very well on that LARGE PILE OF CASH. :p

I'll reserve my personal judgement until I actually see it, but I'm certainly getting a kick out of some of these reviews (the quote from the Village Voice is particularly nice)
