Wonderful movie, the 3D is amazing, and Jim Carrey can Cary this character so well. I enjoyed every minute of the movie.

If you can appreciate the 1951 classic version with Alastair Sim, you will love the Digital 3-D take on this one, and it does stay pretty true to the original storyline. I loved this. A few "scary" bit scenes for some kids, but an overall good experience with a great message and amazing attention to detail! I can see why this movie is challenging to this day of age so I wouldn't recommend it for the faint of mind.

I saw this movie thinking it would be great because I liked this story and the other versions. I was pretty disappointed, there were many parts were I was scared and jumped. I would never recommend someone bringing their young children to it.

I really enjoyed this movie, but I found the animation a little creepy. I think it would have been better if it was just live action. However, the 3D was great and I saw it in the IMAX so it was pretty amazing to watch. And I love the classic story, it definitely got me in a Christmassy mood!

A very enjoyable take on a classic story. The 3D aspect brings to light a whole new view of cinema. I believe we are seeing the future of film in this movie. Very entertaining, and very enjoyable. I highly recommend taking this movie in at the theaters, don't wait until it is out on video, it won't be the same!

I loved this version of A Christmas Carol. I think it's the best one since the black and white version with Alastair Sim. And it being 3D was a huge bonus. A must-see for anyone who loves Dickens' classic story.

For me it was the worst movie ever. You couldn't even enjoy the movie because like every five minutes there was something new that was scary. It was ok but it could've been much better if it wasn't so scary.

Me and my friends loved the movie, very original remix of the classic Charles Dickens story with great acting by Jim Carey. The story line is pure Charles Dickens from start to end, including old English, don't expect a new plot. The movie is NOT scary at all for adults, but too scary for young or sensitive children. The movie won't appeal to certain people - those who don't read or spend most of their free time watching TV, this is an old English classic remake after all. Special effects in 3D are fantastic.

The graphics were excellent, best animated motion picture I have ever seen regards to graphics and style of picture! Along with the storyline keeping to the book as close as possible, and the best looking scrooge I have ever seen.

An exciting 3-D twist on a Christmas classic. Definitely not a movie for the under-8 crowd, as some of the scenes are very intense and somewhat creepy/scary. Very moving/emotional on the Tiny Tim story.

This movie should have come out at Christmas time & not late october or early novemeber. What was the point of it being animated? I was expecting it to be more action & fantasy-filled & maybe more magical. I already knew this story & this film didn't bring it to a new level. Nothing special about this "new" version- just alot of hype. I almost walked out of the theatre.

Okay, First this is supposed to be a kids movie. I saw it with my 20 year-old friend and we were both scared. The begining and the end is great, it shows Scroges' character. But the middle of the movie (mostly all of it) is scary because of the spirits. I WOULD NOT recomend it for yoounger children even though it is supposed to be for that age. I woul rent it then see it in theatres. They could have done a better job!

Best part of the movie was flying over the town, the 3D was well done. Other than that... very dark, boring movie.

Yes, I would call it a masterpiece, only because I felt it that way when I was watching it. I did read the book when I was a kid and I loved it. I haven't seen any other screen versions, but I am very happy that I saw this one. It was amazing! It's like a new generation of filming. :) And the story... well, it's the classics, what can I add?

Really is a wonderful movie. The 3D is well worth the extra money and even though I've read and watched this story several times I felt it was a new spin on a classic. It was true to the original novel and the art direction was excellent. Flying through ye olde London town was amazing and the best part of the whole movie (in my humble opinion!) is Ghost of Christmas future. Lovely stuff.

Didn't have anything more than any other remake of this film. 3-D worked well, but story a little shallow in content. Much preferred the Muppet Christmas Carol. Went on "cheap night". Glad I didn't pay full price.

Amazing graphics. If you guys/gals don't want to see the movie because of the story line and you're a big fan of intense graphics, this movies is for you. Of course, combining your like for the story and graphics would give you an intense experience.

I went to see this movie with my kids, and we all loved it. Great Christmas and Christian story with excellent moral lessons, AMAZING 3D and special effects. The best movie I've seen this year. I will be waiting in line for the DVD. Too bad we can't go higher than 10/10.

I absolutely loved it. I just read the book and the film was very faithful, except for a short section in the middle. The movie is incredibly beautiful visually and Jim Carrey did a fantastic job. I will want to watch this every Christmas!

This movie was quite good but I do think it could be better. It takes a plotline that we are all familiar with and makes it into a movie. It was quite good, but it had a very familiar plotline.

The movie was really good but a little bit scary. It's the best feeling to watch it in IMAX 3D. Would like to see it again.

I was very disappointed with the story... Having seen other versions of this in the past, I was expecting from Disney to see a story unfold and be delightly entertained at the same time. Visualy the 3D effects were awesome!! But I did feel that the story was only second to the visual. It was very hard to understand the dialoge over the music and it skipped over so much story from the orignial. Sometimes a peice of story would come on and i'd think ok... but than they would quickly go on to something else. Therefore losing the effect I expected. [...]

Even if just for the nostalgia this was a movie worth seeing. I suggest you see if 3D. The beginning is a little slow but if your hoping to get in the Christmas spirit this movie is a great starting point.

One of the only movies that in my opinion, Jim Carrey excelled in. The animation in 3-D was absolutely amazing. It was so scary, I just loved it. There was so much action. However the story was very confusing. If I didn't know what the movie was about, I wouldn't have been able to follow.

An excellent remake of the classic story! The 3D was great! For those who complain that it was too scary and your kids were too scared, it is no secret that A Christmas Carol is about ghosts!! The story is extremely old! The original movie is quite scary too! Well Done! I would see it again!

It was a spectacular theatre experience. Seriously. An exceptional story and classic characters, accompanied by perfectly fitting acting (well, voices) and soundtrack. Add that to the amazing cinematography (if you call it that when its animated) and you have a great film. Then, do it all in 3D. The synergistic culmination was a truly spectacular film. I loved it. Of course, I am a Christmas freak.

I saw this movie with my dad and my 2 younger sisters. We were so excited to see a movie about Christmas because Christmas is one of our best holidays. But when we watched the movie, we thought it was the worst movie we've seen in a long time! There were some scary moments in it which werent related to Christmas in anyway. There we some little kids who were watching the movie as well, and they probably thought it was going to be good seeing as how it was a Christmas movie, but some of those kids ended up crying at some scary parts! It definitely was not worth seeing. My dad said it was a waste of his money and it wasn't that good of a Christmas movie! If you have kids or young siblings who want to see this movie, well don't. It's horrible, and you will definitely regret it later.

It was a very good movie. It had some unique and different events that took place. It was much better than any other Christmas carol I've ever seen. There was even some comedy in it which is always good. I also suggest seeing it in 3-D.

This movie was okay. The animation was amazing. However, the movie got a little confusing in the last part of the movie as it was difficult to tell who some of the characters were who started to appear. The first 2/3 of the movie was very good, the last 1/3 not so much.

I am not sure why this film is animated! It would have been far better with real characters. Some parts were too long and some were just annoying (Spirit "present") It would have been better with less animation and some real acting. The message is still the same but could have been better embellished at the end. Overall, okay movie but could have done without so much animation.
