Review of The Grinch (2018) by Epicladysponge — 09 Nov 2018
Illumination Entertainment seems to not learn its lesson from the mediocrity of The Lorax. In fact, the studio also seems to not learn its lesson from the mediocrity of Minions, Despicable Me 3, The Secret Life of Pets, and Sing.
The Grinch unfortunately ended up having the exact same problems that The Lorax had. Instead of sexual innuendos as the time filler as you saw it in that How the Grinch Stole Christmas movie from 2000, The Grinch uses pop culture references as the time filler and whether that improves Dr.
Suess's film adaptation library or not depends on how stale the jokes will become in the next couple of years. I can quickly say that with a film that barely explains its plot to the audience these jokes will not hold up for long.
