A Christmas Carol

Not to gush, but this movie takes the cake for Christmas release of the decade, and trust me, I’m a big Grinch fan.

Brilliant doesn’t even begin to describe the level of intricate animation that has been so lovingly injected into this classic tale. The ghosts are macabre and grotesque, Scrooge is wrinkled and sunken, and old London is captured so wonderfully that you can almost feel the cobblestones under your patent, lace-up boots.

Plus, as a real treat, they’ve made the film in 3D, so hold onto your wine gums when those ghosts come at you. With Jim Carrey as the quirky voice and inspiration for Scrooge, there’s not much more we can say besides, “This is what we go to the movies for”.

Rating: 5 outta 5.
