I grew up loving it and just rewatched it for the first time in years... still overall found it enjoyable. Looks like it was critically panned, though, when I looked out of curiosity, and not much better for audience scores.

Was it received well? Do you like it?

I also loved it as a kid. Its decent, but not as good as the classic animated version imo.

Didn't care for it as a kid. Felt it was too different from the animated version.

Just watched it a couple days ago. It isnt really for kids, just dressed up that way. The jokes are clever and his speech on avarice highlights how the whovians are actually just as ugly as the Grinch.

Great movie

Compared to Mike Meyer's The Cat in the Hat, it's a cinematic masterpiece on par with Casablanca.

It's garbage

Grinch is supposed to be cartoonishly sinister, not a bumbling incompetent. Also putting dirty jokes in a Christmas movie is just disgusting

Yeah, it was alright. I think Carrey's adult craziness still captured the Seuss character fine.

Mike Myers as the Cat in the Hat is nightmare fuel though.
I knew something was off when Rosie O'Donnell recommended it...

The 1st and only time I got theater head was during that movie, so it has a special place in my heart.
