This movie is well worth the money it costs to go see. It is creepy for a disney movie, but it is very good. Jim carrey does a wonderful job playing scrooge. As Moviemayham said, "I think this is the best movie EVER!. Also this movie should be a must see for everyone."

Great effects at the begging of the movie but petered out once into the story. It did have the story and this was just a different presentation of it. I enjoyed it and wasn't sorry I went!

THIS IS NOT A MOVIE FOR KIDS!!! And I question whether some adults should waste their money on it either.... the ghosts were very, very scarey and the "old English" lanuage was above children's heads.... I think this should have had a much stronger warning for children under 12... The animation was wonderful and the 3D effects were awesome - seemed like it was really snowing in there.. but hardly worth the high cost of admission.

Sad that this is really the only Family Christmas Movie put out this year.

Good movie some scary parts, when me and my friend were there. there was these little kids and they were laughing then the ghost of christmas future comes through the wall and they stopped laughing. good times(not been mean)

REALLY GOOD!!!! no complaints at all. it is incredible in 3D!

I think this is the best movie EVER!. Also this movie should be a must see for everyone.

There is only good things about this movie... Great!!!

Disney’s A Christmas Carol could have been a great movie but has been lacquered over with computer-generated pixels which mask all the emotion in favor of eye candy. Like most sugar treats, the initial rush fades quickly leaving you hungry for a real meal. Given the actors involved, cutting them loose with this sure-fire material would have produced an exceptional version of Dickens’ A Christmas Carol.
The movie establishes the roots of the story with an opening shot of the Dickens book and as the pages open, we move to the face of death, resting peacefully in a coffin with eyes covered by shiny tuppence coins. We pull back to reveal the main character, Ebenezer Scrooge. His miserly character is established early as he steals the coins covering the eyes of the dead man, who we learn is his business partner, Marley. Fast forward seven years and Scrooge is older, richer and still working under the sign he shares with Marley’s name. Working beside him in the cold office is his clerk, Cratchit.
Although we get a satisfactory explanation for Scrooge’s miserable character flaws and take joy in his transformation after his ghostly wake-up ordeal, it is a logical progression without the emotional bond one feels with other versions using real actors on screen. It is not because these actors are not trying, but they are not real on screen, due to the CGI technique used to produce the spectacular images. Scrooge is exaggerated, with thin, spidery limbs and a face so full of sharp edges, it could slice a ledger in half. However, the rest of the characters have no edges or character at all and the city of London has none of the grit and grime of Dickens’ time.
A Christmas Carol works on an emotional level, not a visual one. Dickens took great care in establishing the arc of Scrooge’s character from miser to generous patron of the downtrodden and you need to feel his journey, not as a spectator on a thrill ride, but as a shoulder to cry on as the old man realizes the folly of his values and the price he paid for wealth. This movie makes you believe he changed out of fear rather than feeling a true compassion for the plight of others. The change happens not from what he sees but what you see reflected back on his face. These expressions are beyond the capacity of the HP server farm.
