Product description

Ebenezer Scrooge (Jim Carrey) begins the Christmas holiday with his usual miserly contempt, barking at his faithful clerk (Gary Oldman) and his cheery nephew (Colin Firth). Scrooge later encounters the ghost of his dead business partner Joseph Marley, whos paying the price in the afterlife for his own callousness. Marley hopes to help Scrooge avoid a similar fate and tells him that he will be visited by three spirits. But when the ghosts of Christmas Past, Present and Yet to Come take Old Scrooge on an eye-opening journey revealing truths hes reluctant to face, he must open his heart to undo years of ill will before its too late.

Modern take on a Dickens classic.
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 4 December 2017
Verified Purchase
I love Xmas films but I have three that are undoubtedly my favourites and A Christmas Carol is one of them. I love all versions of the film but this one is right up there. It’s Disney’s take on the classic tale with Jim Carey taking the lead...well his voice does. It’s amusing and also very dark in places. The bit where Scrooge is being chased by the ghost of Xmas future is really quite scary for small children so better watch it with them. The graphics are amazing and the characters as real as they can be without actually being actors. It’s a really enjoyable take on the Dickens classic bought up to date for discerning adults and children alike. As I say just be aware that very young children might be a bit scared in places. A must to add to your Xmas dvd collection.

very frightening for young kids...from the start imo. i don't like frightening horror films and this was a bit like a horror film but it was so well done i watched it to the end. my 7 year old granddaughter said she was scared from the start. the last ghost was really horrific but enjoyable.
i have a 3d television so the ride through scrooges christmas conscious was paticularly fascinating

My personal favourite rendition of this multi-"rebooted" brilliant Xmas masterpiece.
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 9 January 2019

Personally I'd rate the movie itself 5 stars, the visuals are stunning.
The brilliant casting also gets my 2 thumbs up & another 5 stars.
However the 3D effect, although still excellent, is more cinema "Real3D" ie the depth of 3D goes INTO the screen, rather than IMAX quality 3d, which projects outwards from the screen towards you, (hands out trying, desperately hard to grasp/grab whatever appears in front of you).
Hope this helps👍👍👍

Animation that never seemed So Real
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 22 March 2018

Come Christmas there is a host of movies all on the Charles Dickens short story that is the name of this movie. Some are good and some, well let's just say they don't always hit the spot.
Now, I love animation anyway because I admire the work that goes into them, so had to give this a try.
Jim Carrey is great in this and the animation is of the best quality throughout. The other good thing about animation is that characters and situations can be greatly exaggerated in order to enchance the scene.
Yes, we all know the story but, the animation is what sets this adaptation apart from the others.
The price is right and the film is right. Watch it and enjoy

Yes....well. Technically impressive but emotionally lacking.
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 19 December 2021
Verified Purchase
The positives are the script is very authentic to the original tale and the animation and 3D are both very impressive. The negatives are it’s too horrific and the “action” sequences are far too long and intrusive. This is certainly NOT a film for young children and my copy had a 12 Certificate - so beware. Though technically brilliant, it pays too much attention to special effects and too little to the emotional core of Dickens’ original tale.
