Don't waste your money!!: As the other reviews have stated, this is not the version you want. It is photographs of the storybook, not the animated characters you remember. There is no way to tell until you open it and watch it. It is terrible.
WARNING - DON'T BUY ... not the movie you expect: This is just still pictures of the book pages ... with Walter Matthau reading the text. BORING! Definitely not the old animated TV movie I expected.
Disappointed!!: I made the mistake of buying this horrendous version of the Grinch. How disappointing! No Boris Karloff...no, instead we have a Bronx-drawling Walter Matthau spewing the words of the book, sounding as though he's had a few too many. It's not even the wonderful animated version. The images are taken from the book only. Don't buy this.
It's just not the same!: I made the same mistake. I thought this was the one I always saw on TV every year when I was a kid. It's definitely not! Just pictures with narration. Look closely before you buy!!!!
I also was fooled: I think it's very sneaky that they make people think this is the Grinch that we see on tv every year. I also made the same mistake and was very unhappy when I put the tape in.
