Dr Seuss
was a big favourite of my childhood but that was then and this is now. I’m
generally allergic to Christmas films that aren’t Love Actually or Anna and the
Apocalypse and I have no high hopes for this. But I have it and to my
surprise Hal wants to see it so here we sit.
Everybody
in Whoville loves and adores Christmas. The Grinch hates and loathes it.
To my surprise, it’s funny and enjoyable. It might just become a Christmas standard for us.
