Boston Globe -
With Carrey hitting a career peak, this Grinch doesn't steal Christmas; it restores the season by helping energize us enough to make it through the whole thing.

Seattle Post-Intelligencer -
He's (Carrey) a marvelous Grinch in this spirited, bustling and mostly faithful spin on Seuss.

|
Christian Science Monitor -
Carrey is excellent, making the most of his comic gifts even in a cumbersome Grinch outfit, and the eye-spinning color scheme is dazzling to behold.

TV Guide Magazine -
A smartly stylized hoot.

Chicago Sun-Times -
I am not a mind-reader and cannot be sure, but I think a lot of children are going to look at this movie with perplexity and distaste. It's just not much fun.
