Felt like I was watching a grade school play

A Christmas Carol

This was terrible

Every year it seems someone makes another &quot;Christmas Carol&quot; movie. BE it for television or theatrical. There has been adaptions where the story is changed to &quot;Modern Times&quot; Some with a gender switch&quot; and musical versions as well. I have not however seen this turned into a ballet or an &quot;ON ICE&quot; edition however I am sure one is in the works!

We all know the story but this edition stays as close as they can to the book. This is the darkest, most ghostly version of this story ever made. It stays true to the original feel of the Dickens story, while turning up the creepiness. A range of well known Irish and English actors makes up the cast. On the anniversary of his business partner&apos;s death, Ebenezer Scrooge finds unwelcome company in the form of three spirits from Christmases Past, Present and Yet to Come.

The problem with this film is that the lighting is bad. The direction is terrible. It also spoken in &quot;Elizabethan&quot; and that is a huge distraction. 

As for the costumes there not &quot;memorable&quot;. The acting was fine but nobody gives a stand out performance.

If you are a parent and you want to introduce your children to the story then almost any other version is a better choice. Like another reviewer posted &quot;I prefer the version from MGM&quot; from 1938.

On the anniversary of Jacob Marley&apos;s death, his business partner Ebenezer Scrooge finds unwelcome company in the form of three spirits from Christmases Past, Present and Yet to Come. If he is to have any future at all, he must first come to terms with actions from his past. Three spirits are about to show Ebenezer Scrooge the night of his life.
