In the interest of generating some controversy/discussion I submit an opinion. While I've heard the grinch is a great movie, Jim Carrey has never thrilled me. I have felt that his zaniness is not natural and seems forced as compared to Robin Williams who is absolutely as whacky in real life as he is on film. It seems to me that Jim Carrey tries to imitate Robin and in doing so is not a natural. The original grinch is one of my all-time favorite stories/movie so I hesitate to see the new movie. But I'll be open-minded and will probably see it this season and maybe will report back here with a new opinion.
