As someone who remembers the premiere of the half hour animated classic, I loved seeing it updated with wonderful animation. I liked the additions to the story as well and the funny animal characters. The Ox alone is worth watching. Where it misses the mark is the casting of voice artists. The Grinch in particular is a really bad choice. There is no evil darkness to the grinch and a voice like Boris Karloff was a necessary component. Pharrell was not the best choice for narration and I'm a huge fan. Hits outweigh the misses, it's a fun update, and you can still watch the original too.
