You might say that it is a bit creepier as a Christmas movie. Things those are shown so clearly might give a few children nightmares but they will obviously enjoy the animated expressions of Jim Carrey. The animation was severely focused on Mr. Scrooge’s facial expressions of desperation and depression. The ghosts are creepy too, but that is understandable. After all ghosts are ghosts no matter what their purpose is.

The funny part of this movie is, Jim Carrey voiced Mr. Scrooge and along with all four ghosts those haunt him. If you want to find out a few flaws then you can look into the not so important characters that Mr. Scrooge meets while visiting his past and future. The animations are not of same standard and lack the emotional touch to perfection.

Another thing that I felt was the movie did not serve the purpose of the book that wanted to connect to the emotional part of the readers. The realization of Mr. Scrooge and evaluation of life are overshadowed by the flashy animation of the journey that Mr. Scrooge under goes. But I think this can be justified as the movie is made to entertain kids and animation lovers and people have had enough of moral education and it’s Christmas. The idea was to give the viewers a nice and wonderful family time and I guess A Christmas Carol and Jim Carrey along with the director Zemeckis was successful in doing that.
