 | Kids loved it Jan 1, 2010 |
| I really wanted to get this DVD for my kids this year and they loved it. Though I think that the $14 I spent my be a little much for 20 minutes of viewing. This might be more economical to buy as a set with other holiday movies. |

 | Review from a vegetarian mom Dec 27, 2009 |
The 1966 Dr. Seuss classic "How the Grinch Stole Christmas" is a holiday tradition for my family. Kiddo, being 4, didn't remember the movie from last year, so it was fun to watch her experience it as if for the first time this morning as snow fell outside.
What piqued my interest this time around was the Grinch's relationship with his dog Max. Dr. Seuss tells us that the Grinch's heart was probably two sizes too small, but you can tell he's a meany before he ever steals the Whos' Christmas presents just by watching how he treats Max. He bullies him, pulls him by the tail, works him to exhaustion, and whips him -- horrible stuff! Happily, we see that the Grinch's change of heart transforms his relationship with Max too. At the end of the short film, Max is eating Christmas dinner with the family.
This movie does portray meat consumption -- the Whos eat "roast beast" -- but kiddo thought it was "maybe a loaf of bread." |

| Great Christmas Classic Dec 24, 2009 |
| This is a great Christmas classic, even good to watch with little ones. Many Christmas movies are too long or scary for preschoolers. We recommend this one. Add blankets and a snack and you might even get them to sit through the whole thing! |

| This is a Christmas movie classic and a must have. The digital copy included is great as well. |

 | Barely worth the money Dec 20, 2009 |
| I was disappointed with this DVD. The intro forces you to watch a bunch of previews. Before that it starts with an anti-piracy warning including the Wizard of Oz and the Wicked Witch that my 5 year old was scared of. Did it really need to start with this? And then it was [...] for just the 20 minute episode. I guess I should have realized that is all I would get, but the reality of that after being forced through the commercials was disappointing. It should be [...] and Video on Demand. |
