Movie Reviews

Entertainment Weekly - 10/10 by Owen GleibermanA marvelous and touching yuletide toy of a movie.
Chicago Sun-Times - 10/10 by Roger EbertAn exhilarating visual experience and proves for the third time he's (Zemeck) is one of the few directors who knows what he's doing with 3-D.
New Orleans Times-Picayune - 9/10 by Mike ScottAs beautiful as the animation is, Zemeckis' real masterstroke is combining it with a loyalty to Dickens' story.
ReelViews - 8/10 by James BerardinelliThere's something to be said for the power of a classic, even if it has been given an imperfect makeover.
The Globe and Mail (Toronto) - 8/10 by Rick GroenThis time, though, Zemeckis has another technical trick up his sleeve – 3-D – and for once the gimmick succeeds.
San Francisco Chronicle - 8/10 by Amy BiancolliIf some of the animation overdoes it, a lot of it is downright gorgeous. Few images this year have followed me home like the Ghost of Christmas Past, here imagined as a bright-flamed candle with the face of a child. It flickers. It whispers. It flies.
Miami Herald - 8/10 by Rene RodriguezCould there possibly be anything left to gain from yet another adaptation of Charles Dickens' tale about crabby old Ebenezer Scrooge and his life-changing encounter with three ghosts on Christmas Eve? In the case of Disney's A Christmas Carol, the answer is a surprising, resounding yes -- at least so far as the IMAX 3D version goes.
Time Out - 8/10 by Keith UhlichThe unspoken theme underlying Dickens’s prose--that the money-grubbing Ebenezer is conversing with semblances of his own self--finds near-perfect cinematic expression through Carrey’s efforts.
Time - 8/10 by Richard CorlissA ghost story, a bustling action-adventure and an example of the comedy tour-de-farce, in which the star validates his virtuosity by appearing in a plethora of funny disguises.
Boston Globe - 8/10 by Ty BurrShockingly, the new film turns out to be very good, at times close to brilliant: a darkly detailed marvel of creative visualization that does well by Dickens and right by audiences - when it’s not trying to sell them a theme park ride.
