This Jim Carrey Flick Just Hit #1 on Netflix—& It's Definitely the Must-Watch Movie of the Week
In short, Carrey stars as the antisocial Grinch who absolutely hates Christmas. The bitter and hateful Grinch becomes increasingly irritated at the thought of the nearby village planning their big Christmas celebrations. To ruin their holiday, he disguises himself as Santa Claus (and his dog to look like a reindeer) and travels to the village to raid it of all of the presents, trees and decorations. But after a run-in with a little girl, he begins to have a change of heart.
Based on Dr. Seuss’s book of the same name, How the Grinch Stole Christmas also stars Taylor Momsen (Gossip Girl), Jeffrey Tambor (Arrested Development), Christine Baranski (Mama Mia), Bill Irwin (Lady in the Water), Molly Shannon (Never Been Kissed), Clint Howard (The Waterboy) and Mindy Sterling (Austin Powers). Oh, and we can’t forget Kelley who plays our beloved Max the dog.
What better way to get into the holiday spirit than with a little comic relief from our good pal Jim? In the words of Mr. Grinch himself, “Cheer up dude, it’s Christmas!”
