A Christmas Carol
Strange events and exciting situations pass by a man named Miser Ebeneezer Scrooge. The man woke up one day after the arrival of a group of souls on the eve of Christmas to tell him about the challenges and disasters he faces, his miserable existence in life, the misery he may have, the opportunities he has wasted, the conflicts he faces, and the harsh fate he will endure if he does not change his way of life and style. The life of the man has changed and turned upside down when he finds many of the phenomena that occur at Christmas.

Zemeckis's retelling of A Christmas Carol is solid, most importantly letting the story itself shine through where it naturally does.

One cannot help but feel the same effect could have been accomplished by simply making a live action film with state-of-the-art visual effects.

Does this entertainment achieve a timelessness beyond its exquisite source material? Not even. Yet there's pleasure to be had and relief in feeling the filmmakers didn't Scrooge it up either.

The motion capture animation is top-notch and it's hard not to be impressed with what Robert Zemeckis has wrought, even if there's the occasional sense he's pandering to an audience that can't get through a 90 minute story without a few yuks and a chase.
