REVIEW:

This movie is not the most perfect Robert Zemekis movie like Back To The Future or Forrest Gump, but it's still a good movie to see at least. A Christmas Carol tells the story of a bitter old man named Ebenezer Scrooge, who gets a second chance at life when 3 ghosts visit him to give him the lesson that needs to be taught. This movie was great on visuals, but not good on the story. Like, it was good, but missed the Robert Zemekis charm, like what he had in Back To The Future, Who Framed Roger Rabbit, and Forrest Gump. But this was better than The Polar Express, which I didn't like at all. This was an interesting movie to see, but you don't have to see it in 3D, though. There are a few pop out moments, but it wasn't necessary. Either way, this movie would scare the pants off anyone under the age of 10, as the story is indeed haunting. So, if you want to see A Christmas Carol you should, but I'd prefer it as a rental more than a 3D or IMAX 3D experience. But still, see it, you might like it if you're a die hard Zemekis fan.

Hello viewers of this blog,

Due to recent comments of spam and profanity present from obnoxious kids who think they are the funniest people in the world, I would like to request that the comments posted here are in good taste, meaning that they have no Anti-Semitic remarks, profanity, sexual innuendo, or any insults to myself. You can criticize the review and give pointers on how to make them better, but how about we be adults about this. Ok? Thank you, and have a nice day.
