Disney's A Christmas Carol is good, but it doesn't really add anything to the Scrooge mythology. It's the same as Mickey's Christmas Carol, The Muppet Christmas Carol and all the other A Christmas Carol adaptations you've seen a dozen times. It does put some "scary" back into this classic ghost story, but, for the most part, this film is interchangeable with the others.

A family movie, which does not lose its essence, but is shot in a spectacular way. Tells you what to tell It transmits what you owe. But it also does it in a beautiful way that gets you more into the story and you enjoy the staging.The truth is that I had a great time watching the plans he makes. I think it's the director who knows best how to position the camera. But not only to make a beautiful shot. It is that he uses it to tell you the story. Others would make a series of loose planes, close-ups and details. He tells it in a masterly way.The film has its emotion, it does not lack and when he has seen my niece has not been bored, he liked it a lot. That means it has not lost essence.It has a spectacular picture. It's not always like that in cartoon films. The setting is great. It gets you into that much, it's very well created.As a director, I think there are too many words. Entertaining, fun, exciting.To put it to children and adults and to enjoy.

An animated retelling of Charles Dickens' classic novel about a Victorian-era miser taken on a journey of self-redemption, courtesy of several mysterious Christmas apparitions. I really don't get why so many people hated this film it's beautiful from the inside and the outside and although it's a retelling it still has the exact same feeling as every other film that i have seen about Scrooge it's one of the greatest Christmas stories of all time and how one person can change threw out one night. Jim Carrey is simply fantastic as every incarnation of Scrooge and the same goes for Gary Oldman as well and in my humble opinion people who didn't like The Polar Express that much will not be disappointed. God bless us. Every one.

This has been one of my favourite Christmas movies since its release in 2009 and, after revisiting it again this Christmas, it's certainly still up there. I love the vibrant, warm animation and design. The Polar Express was terrific but this is on another level.Jim Carrey does an unbelievable job voicing Scrooge (young and old), and all three ghosts. The story is left pretty much untouched and adopts a classic, stripped back approach, with emphasis on the story as told by Dickens. It does have a darker tone to it, and some of the ghost scenes may be too frightening for younger viewers, but overall this is a great Christmas family film.
