with Jim Carrey. I'm planning on watching this on Saturday with some friends. We're seeing the 3D version.

Would love to hear others views on this movie if they've seen it!

I haven't seen the movie but I saw the preview in 3D imax and it is visually stunning.

Went and saw this yesterday.

The 3D effects were brilliant although they went a little too 'Disney' at one part.

The story really followed closely the original story. An Jim Carrey really pulled off playing Scooge and the ghosts/spirits who visited him.

I don't recommend this movie for children, they would probably have nightmares, some parts were very scary. (I remember the black & white version frightening me too!)

The only thing I would change, is make the happy at the end part more colourful and jovial to match the intensity of the dark moments. I wanted to feel 'more' Christmasy at the end.

Just saw this today and I really enjoyed it. We didn't get to see it in 3D, but I bet it was very stunning. I enjoyed the old-English feel to the language. I figured it probably followed the book very closely, but was wondering about the end.

I was expecting Scrooge to go eat at his worker's house, not at his nephew's. Also, when he bought the turkey, who did he sent it to? I thought his worker.
