Blunt Reviews Presents: How the Grinch Stole Christmas (2000)

I know this is a contemporary Christmas classic we all love, but it becomes somewhat confusing when you consider the following:

1. It was a winner at the 2001 Academy Awards
2. Anthony Hopkins narrates
3. Cindy Lou now sings for the Pretty Reckless – yeah we’ve all seen her topless…
4. Jim Carrey had to train for the role with CIA operatives who specialise in withstanding torture
5. This was brought to us by the acclaimed director of Apollo 13, A Beautiful Mind and Rush. Why did he make this?

So basically it’s pure Dr Suess butchering, child star corrupting, comedian torturing, career threatening Christmas joy!
