How the Cumberbatch stole the Grinch18 years ago the first big screen Grinch was debuted from its book. Unfortunately it wasn't computer animated, nor inventive. This is the long delay that has payed its due, a remake of the famed Grinch story put together with the proper formula to create the perfect chemistry in the story. This Grinch is not only played by (Benedict Cumberbatch), he makes him more of a person rather than a creature. In Jim Carrey’s portrayal of the green hermit we feel his mannerisms are that of big foot rather than a common human. Cumberbatch brings out a more sympathetic and likeable approach in the Grinch that i felt had the same significance in the book and is more preferred than a mean spirited bafoon. Speaking of which, the who’s portrayed here are also good natured and genuine, they are more concerned about their entourage quire skills rather than maxing out their credit cards. The Story as we know is the same except for some improvements, it is done by Illumination pictures who is well known for its work on Despicable me and its famed dialogues of humor in the characters, the same affect is put into action in this Grinch and it works, this one is funny but with a twist of humor, not not meant to scare any viewers such as Carrey did. The who’s in that Grinch were also mean spirited and they the Grinch more of an antagonist than one of them. Theres scenes where the Grinch runs into some who’s and he engages conversations with them all starting on positive notes!. Where was this screenplay in the past? What im also touched by is the fact Grinch’s dog Max is portrayed as a true companion rather than Slave. Here Max is interactive on human level, he plays chess, goes shopping, and much more with his owner. The plotting is better and more to the point, we are introduced to Cindy Lou Who, played by young (Cameron Seely) is a daughter any mother would love and she’s celebrating christmas with the boldest purpose, to pray for a better life for not yourself, but your mom, Cindy doesn't like it when she works nights and doesn’t get to see her much in result. So she puts her faith in Santa, who not only is she sending him a letter, but setting up a trap in her living room to get his attention. This is as cute of a plot as you can get to where it strikes the perfect balance, lovable for kids and laughable to adults. However the disadvantage is she has friends that don't believe her but go with her flow anyway. The Grinch’s quest to steal Christmas this time is more of a friendly scheme, yes he’a stealing everything but is trying to fly down crumpit not with his dog with a horn tied to his head, but rather pull the sleigh using a reindeer with real horns. That quest fails, they fins one out of 8 who looks like he “ate the other seven” Grinch assumes, but plan B? Allowing Max to wear a “hat” with a horn and actually sit in the sled. This Grinch movie is what the last one should’ve become and the kind of direction the book also should’ve went. Of course we want the cruel grinch, but we want joy tied to his story, not misery. I really liked it, it was funny on a cute and innocent level and the audience would find that more appreciating. What i really appreciated was how this film played a 2 way story to where the who’s had as many plot points and screen time as the Grinch. Illumination did the best job with this story they are deemed the perfect fit. They know how to perfect the animation where the sequences of Grinch stealing Christmas looks swooping and effortless, a note of advice to Jim Carrey, when clean sweep robbing neighbors living rooms and kitchens....use tubes and vaccums that don't wake up the whole street, its more realistic that way. Big thumbs up for the Grinch..Score: 4/5
