Actually, I think that it i a very good review.
a) it makes me want to go see it
b) he sensibly questions some of the director's concept choices  
without writing off the entire show

As to his review of the children in the audience, I am sure that he  
is quite correct.  The behavior that I have witnessed at "Chitty,  
Chitty, Bang, Bang" and "the Grinch..." has been quite  
disappointing.  But then, if adults in the theater cannot understand  
that they are not watching TV in their own living room, why should  
children?

For anyone in the NY area, The Met Museum has added another  
performance, Dec 9th at noon. Otherwise, only obstructed seats are  
available.
