3 Film Box Set: Hop / Despicable Me / The Grinch Jim Carrey 2011 New DVD

Triple bill of children’s feature films. ‘Hop’ (2011), a state-of-the-art blend of CGI-animation and live action, follows E.B. (voiced by Russell Brand), the teenage son of the Easter Bunny. When E.B. arrives in Hollywood with ambitions of finding fame, his dreams are almost cut short when he is hit by a car driven by unemployed slacker Fred (James Marsden). Deciding to get what he can out of the situation, E.B. convinces Fred to take him home while he recovers from his injuries. Fred finds himself with a very demanding house-guest and the duo embark on a battle of wills that may just teach them both something important. ‘Despicable Me’ (2010), a computer-animated feature, follows an arch criminal who has a change of heart. Trying to outdo his main rival Vector (voice of Jason Segel), serial villain Gru (Steve Carell) hatches a plan to steal the moon, aided by his army of genetically altered corn pops. All goes according to plan until the arrival at his door of three little orphan girls, Margo (Miranda Cosgrove), Agnes (Elsie Fisher) and Edith (Dana Gaier), in search of a father figure. ‘The Grinch’ (2000) stars Jim Carrey as the grouchy green monster who lives high up on a mountain overlooking the town of Whoville. The Grinch hates happiness, merriment, and most of all, Christmas. One year, as the festive season approaches, he decides that enough is enough and draws up plans to steal all the decorations and all the presents from the citizens of the town. Does this mean the Whos won’t be celebrating this year? Not if little Cindy Lou (Taylor Momsen) has anything to do with it.
