I read that this film has been labeled by parents as a "Disney Bomb" because it's too scary for their young children. Parents who take kids to see any movie need to be aware of something: if it's rated PG there... Full review

The visual effects are awesome. The story does not even compare to the original. I could understand about HALF of the movie because of the accents. I have never had this problem seeing a movie before. I think it would have... Full review

I took my grandson to see this, but I was dreading it. I'm not a Jim Carrey fan but it's a Christmas movie, after all , so I bit the bullet and we saw it at the IMAX in 3-D. The... Full review

Greetings again from the darkness. This is a stunningly visual film with animation that will take your breath away. My eyes could hardly keep up with the opening credits as we "flew" through the city. However, as amazing as the film... Full review
I wonder if Robert Zemeckis weren't a filmmaker if he would have become a pilot. Look at his films and you may find a recurring shot in them, if not all then at least a good lot of them: a shot... Full review
What in the world?!

An Eerie Ghost Story, but far from a Sentimental Work

Disney's A Christmas Carol is a solid adaptation of the Charles Dickens' work, it just lacks the emotional connection inherent in some of the previous cinematic iterations of this timeless story. The story of the film is the traditional story of... Full review
A message this world needs now more than ever

With the near collapse of the world economy, the mass exodus of jobs overseas and the rampant corruption in governments worldwide, greed seems to be the prevailing concept driving pretty much all facets of our society. Anything is acceptable as long... Full review
This film is in love with ugliness

Horrible film that was traumatic and unpleasant the whole time. Dark ugly repulsive scenes including death, skeletons, drunkenness, theft from the dead, and worse. Disney should be ashamed for the misleading trailer. The whole film was was horrifying to watch. The... Full review

A movie's trailer arguably shows the best parts, or teasing pieces of those best parts, of the subject movie, to entice us to pay out our ten bucks to see the picture. It has been a long time since I read... Full review
