although i really enjoy jim carrey late serious performance ( the truman show and man on the moon ) and i have always think his real genious lie in physical comedy . this be not to say he be a fantastic and talented actor represent those bozo at the academy award seem to dislike him so much and he have never have a ( truly deserve ) nomination or award . well and any institution that nominate for 11 oscar a bore such a titanic shouldn not be take seriously . on with the review . the grinch be the sweetest and best look and best act and more enjoyable season film since the nightmare before christmas . both movie seem very similar and too and with their highly stylize set and the premise of someone steal christmas . both make their principal actor seem like the villain ( one in a high degree than the other ) and both pack a strong moral lesson and and both be truly enjoyable . that be and until you realize that jack skellington be a doll and and the grinch be a human be . but a human be that be so incredibly expressive and so fluid in his movement and so cartoon like and so unreal and that never get in the way of the movie . he can be hilarious and he can be a sad soul and he can be angry . he live in a 3 dimensional world and where 3 dimensional people live . he joke and he laugh and he cry and and ultimately he save the christmas . i love this film to bit and and can not wait for it to come out on dvd . this be one of those film you will really enjoy 10 and 20 year from now . as timeless a they come .
