A Christmas Carol (2009)

So Good  Adriana M. Hillstrom  

I actually JUST saw this. I love it. It was so good. Kinda scary but absolutely love this version. I got it like 5 years ago, & just saw it. So realistic too.

Not bad  GamerTy21

Amazing  One13 16  

Love it so much❤️❤️❤️❤️

Not for kids  mosesmerkwan  

this is a Christmas classic but shouldn’t be a PG movie it has some violent gross scary and disturbing scenes for instance. Spoiler alert!: a ghost went up Scrooge and in the middle of the conversation the ghost snapped his jaw and it started hanging off his mouth So... grab some popcorn, friends, and 3D glasses And remember no kids.

Exspected funny, just got CREEPY.  nuenjins  

It's not fun, it's not charming, But it does exist as another familiar but lifeless retell of the same story. There's no added plot twist, seasoned humor or cartoonish charm here. The CG is dead eyed and strange with an unconvincing lack of engaging depth. This is probably one of the worst big budget CG renditions I have ever seen. Go watch the classic or just another movie altogether. Heck, even Muppets would be better at this point

I could care less what other people think  SugarSkrull256  

I love this movie, despite the rating it got. Its animation is some of the best i’ve ever seen, and Jim Carry seamlessly becomes Ebenezer scrooge in amazing fashion. I’ve never seen the 1984 one, but I can say that even if i did, this one would be kept in a special place in my heart.

Amazing  Flame66  

Trolls giving this one star are idiots, this is an epic interpretation of the Dickens classic. A truly beautiful movie, enjoy

This movie is great  KbCheetah  

This is a great, fun movie. I like this movie a lot. It is a great holiday christmas movie. It is one of my favorite movies ever.

Scarifying and Heartless  Bornflippy  

Yes, I know the three Ghosts are meant to be a little scary, such is the story of A Christmas Carol. But Jiminy Christmas, things get a little out of hand for 9/10-year old viewers. My child said at the end, "I didn't know you wanted to show me a Christmas horror movie." The movie also focuses far, far too much energy on the swoopy 3D visuals (which one doesn't get in this iTunes rental/purchase) than on developing why Scrooge makes such a change at the end. A final quote from my son: "Let's never watch this Christmas Carol again!"

Boring  Tomjc90  

Too bad. Started to fall asleep 10 minutes in. Very slow paced so I can imagine small children would have trouble sitting through the whole thing. The pace of the story was all over the place - one second Scrooge didn't care about something then the next he was in tears. For me, I want to sit down to a movie like this and relax, not having to really concentrate on the makings of the movie, and unfortunately it didn't happen for me.

Yuck!  Nana Riley  

I have watched many of Jim Carry's films, when it comes to OTT he rates well, but sadly not in this version of Scrooge. I think I have a problem with this type of computer generated animation too. The eyes, something is odd about them, same thing with the polar express. Back to this film, I didn't even bother to watch the last half hour, I think Carry based his idea of Scrooge on an old version of Christmas Carol with Reginald Owen playing Scrooge, it worked for Owen, not for Carry. The best version in my humble opinion is a Christmas Carol/Scrooge from the fifties starring Alistair Sim.

woahh  Jade♥  

scariest childrens movie ever. im 16 and i was jumping every now and again, but it was still such a good movie ! i would say dont let anyone under the age of 9 or 10 watch it

Terrible!  Jamesoheare  

This is the worst rendition of this classic I have seen. Even though I know the story well, I find myself wondering why this character did not care about any of this stuff just a minute ago and now all of a sudden seems moved by it. Everything about this movie was terrible. And Jim Carrey is one of my favorite actors. Oh and I think it would freak little kids out.

good movie  FalseFate  

its not scary come on... and its rated R not M holy a kids christmas movie rated R dream on

This should be available for rent!  JimmyChooChoo  

It's been available for purchase for more than a month. Please make this rentable.

Bring on the Rental  Daz902  

Why would I want to buy a movie that I can only watch on a single device which will eventually be obsolete? Please bring on the rental - it's almost Christmas!

Rent???  Kails2298  

I want to RENT this please

Very True to Dickens  ScottyMak  

This film is very true to the version Charles Dickens wrote a long time ago. I'd almost say it's not suited for children as there are a few scary parts, but they hidden under a slight of comic relief. Jim Carrey and the entire cast do a great job at the Motion Capture aspect of the movie. This is not your typical "Toy Story" type of animation. The actors all had to wear special head gear and allow a computer to "capture" the movements of their faces and bodies on a soundstage. Of course Jim Carrey is a master of great faces.

Excellent movie - Should be M though not PG  Just wanted a BBQ  

I have only managed to get half way through this movie so far as I was watching it with my children, and it was just way too scary for them. I love the storyline. Visually this is incredible, a feast for the eyes, but it was scary!

A warning to parents  MW123o87tgo867y07  

We enjoyed the animation and the story line of Polar Express, so we thought this would be similar. We were extremely disappointed by this movie. Animation fantastic, but the story was not suitable for children. I watched it with a nine year olds and they were frightened and confused by the story, saying it was boring. I know it's a classic but the adaptation is very dark and depressing. Don't be fooled by the trailer, it is not a good representation of the content of the movie. I would not recommend this for kids.

put on rent!!!!  crusH_ana

A bit to scary for kids under 6 Still a good movie it feels to long

The Christmas carol  Clubsport99  

This movie is a bit scary and dark it's like nightmare before Christmas but I like it

Great movie  NamelessWanderer  

A great movie that didn't dumb down the books dialogue and wasn't afraid to be scary. Underrated.

Aaa well  SwitchLight  

It was ok and I like the end ghost the ghost of his future was scary and added a twist but the other ones not soooooo good!

A Christmas Carol  mickandmardi  

Slow at the start, amazing graphics, great moral to the story but bit scary for little children.

Pretty good!  Hollys71  

This movie was pretty good!

Ok movie  PureFroth  

I think the 3d animation was excelent on my friend's 3d tv but overall the whole storyline was disturbing and corny.

A Christmas Carol  Urustu  

This movie was very well done and thoroughly enjoyable. Incredible animation and sound.

Good  mbhj
