Hi, this is Clarissa from the 411 Kids, I had the opportunity to go see the screening of Disney’s A Chrismas Carol and to interview Jack Rapke the Producer of the movie during the Disney’s A Christmas Carol Train Tour when it pulled into Miami. Which was amazing by the way, especially to see what all was involved with making this movie.
My mother forwarned me that Disney had saying that some parts may be scary for kids…and there were times it was, and I closed my eyes as well, but isn’t that what it was all about, when you go to the movies, to see the unexpected, to leave talking about it.
The movie is to bring a reality to a story of a man being haunted by the ghosts of his past, present and future. We must remember why he was being haunted, too, because he was miserable person, or dark as you might want to say. I believe Disney and Image Makers Digital did an excellant job making this film, and making it seem real. I think they did a fantastic job with the 3D and CGI effects.
Jim Carrey was brillant, Collin Firth, and Gary Oldman were excellant in there roles. As well as the other cast members.
As for laughing, there were many parts that were funny, even in the darkest moments of the movie, I found myself, my mother and the rest of the audience laughing.
Is this a movie I would recommend seeing, YES, YES, YES. In fact I am planning to see it again, and my mother is planning to purchase it when it comes out on DVD. This is going to be a Disney Christmas Classic despite what some of the critics may be writing.
