Movie Reviews of A Christmas Carol
Movie Review: Second Most Disturbing Version of "A Christmas Carol"
Summary: 2 Stars
This is the second most disturbing version of "A Christmas Carol" that I've ever seen. I bought it inspite of the fact that it features the voice of Whoopi Goldberg, because I collect and watch as many versions as I can, and because it features the voice of Tim Curry, whose work I do admire.
I thought Scrooge's dog was a cute addition to the classic tale, but I stopped watching it when the Ghost of Christmas Present appeared looking like Oprah Winfrey in a gigantic green bathrobe, and sounding like Dame Edna. Apparently, there was a disconnect between the cover illustrator and the animated graphics department, because the Ghost of Christmas Present is white on the cover, but black in the movie.
Too disturbing! The only version I've seen more disturbing than this one is Tchaikovsky's "Nutcracker Christmas Story," which features men in thongs, one of them with devil horns on his forehead, cracking a whip at the others.
Summary of A Christmas Carol
One of the best-loved holiday stories of all time is back in this animated musical version of Charles Dickens' most famous tale. An all-star voice lineup features the talents of Whoopi Goldberg, Ed Asner, Michael York, and Tim Curry as Scrooge. Come share the joy as cold-hearted Ebenezer Scrooge, the man who "bah-humbugged" his way through Christmas, discovers the true holiday spirit after he's visited by the Ghosts of Christmas Past, Present and Future. With original music and eight new songs, this uplifting, animated tale is destined to become a new holiday classic.Animation DVD Video
