Based on the famous Dr. Seuss story, How the Grinch Stole Christmas, The Grinch explores a familiar theme of a cynical outsider discovering the real meaning of Christmas. It is a message about tolerance for those who are different, the real meaning of Christmas and the temptations of commercializing the holiday beyond recognition.
In the town of Whoville everyone is comfortable, everyone is happy and everyone loves Christmas - well nearly everyone. The exception is The Grinch, a not so jolly green giant who lives atop a mountain overlooking the town of Who. He hates Christmas, so much so that he will try anything to stop it, whether it's destroying mail in the sorting office or scaring shoppers in the streets. The Grinch vows to spoil Christmas and goes burgling every Who house, dressed as Santa Clause and flying a rocket-powered sled he banged together from junkyard scrap.
Enters Cindy Lou-Who, a six-year-old girl who questions the town's obsession with over-the-top presents and investigates just why the Grinch is so grumpy. An unlikely friendship forms between the two. With a little help from the young girl, the Grinch discovers something about himself, and begins to realize what he has missed all the years he has hidden himself away.
Jim Carrey is amazing and fun as the Grinch. He earns big laughs without ever stepping out of character. Although the film won't appeal to all ages, this would make a great movie for any young person new to film and the Christmas holidays.
《圣诞怪杰》改编自Dr Seuss家喻户晓的童话故事《格林奇如何偷走圣诞节》。这部影片给大家讲述了"圣诞怪杰"是如何领会到圣诞节真正意义的故事。它想要告诉大家,人们应该相互理解, 要领会圣诞节的真正意思, 并防止圣诞节的商业化。
在一个名叫Whoville 的小镇, 人们都生活得恬静愉快, 也都很喜欢过圣诞节, 除了一个人,这个人就是"圣诞怪杰", 他是一个暴躁的绿色怪物,住在小镇旁的一个山顶上。他痛恨圣诞节, 恨不得让整个节日停止下来。 于是,他去邮局破坏邮件的投递, 吓唬街上在节日中购物的行人. "圣诞怪杰"发誓要彻底破坏圣诞节, 他打扮成圣诞老人, 骑着用废铜兰铁敲打出来的雪橇, 到每个镇上人的家里偷盗。
