first an explanation on what make a great movie for me . excitement about not know what be come next will make me enjoy a movie the first time i watch it ( case en point represent twister ) . there be also other thing that go into a great first view such a good humor ( john candy in uncle buck and the great outdoors ) and good plot with good resolution ( madeline and matilda ) and imaginative storytelling ( all star war episodes george lucas be the man ) and and good music ( again all star war episode and wizard of oz and sound of music ) . what make me watch a movie at least six time in the theatre and buy a dvd or vhs tape . character . with that say and i present cindy lou who and the grinch . excellent performance taylor momsen and jim carrey . the rest of the cast be very good and particularly jeffery tambor and bill irwin and molly shannon and christine baranski and and josh ryan evans . but and every single scene with cindy and the grinch together be excellent and very funny and or or heartwarming . cindy lou be my favorite character in this movie and the most compelling reason why the movie be well than the cartoon . the grinch have a strong plot and good conflict and and a very good theme ( i can not get start because i do not want to spoil it ) . jim carrey be very funny a the grinch particularly when he interact with cindy . and the music . wow . excellent music by james horner . i love his selection of instrument and the composition . very good job jim carrey i do not know you could sing . taylor momsen . whoa . your voice be reason enough to see the movie at least once . on your solo where be you christmas be your voice really as high a it sound . sound like an f # . that be an obscene range for a 7 year old ( obscene meant in the best possible way ) . great job . this be the best performance by a child i have ever hear in a movie ( taylor beat out the von trapp child no small feat . ) . and now to the actor . jim carrey be great and funny and and and surprisingly very sensitive ( this really show through in his scene with taylor momsen ) . taylor momsen unspoken expression ( one of the secret to a good acting performance ) be very strong she really become cindy lou who . and when she do dialogue she be even strong . danger representspoiler alert examples represent expression when she first see the grinch . this be a classic quote ( youre the the the and then fill in with the grinch line da da da the grinch after which she topple into the sorter and then be rescue by the grinch ) . the thanks for save me quote and subsequent response by the grinch be also very good . my favorite part of the movie be when cindy invite the grinch to be holiday cheermeister . this scene be two excellent actor at their best interacting and express with each other . little taylor momsen completely hold her own with jim carrey in this spot . i sincerely hope we see taylor momsen in many more film to come . all in all everything be great about this movie ( except maybe the foot and nose ) .
