The Grinch (The Grinch )

«The Grinch is the new film adaptation of Dr Seuss’s classic children’s book of the same name about a hard-hearted cynic with green fur who hates Christmas so much that he wants to steal it. But he hadn’t reckoned with the kindness of a selfless little girl. This vibrantly colourful, breathlessly entertaining animated film tells the story of a bitter loner’s transformation into a warm-hearted philanthropist with great poise, superbly designed characters and a powerful soundtrack. It’s pure kitsch in the best sense of the word, and the German dubbed version is further enhanced by the voice of Otto Waalkes.” (filmdienst, Nov 2018)
