The story is classic, the animation is great, it was astonishing when it came out, but there are more timeless adaptations of this story, also more inventive ones. I'm also not completely sold on Carrey as Scrooge, but it might just be a perception thing.

More or less succeeds as a retelling of the story we’ve all seen a million times, though the animation and character models and their movements have a fair bit of uncanny valley in them. Had a major double take seeing that this came out 12 years ago; I swear it feels like way, way less than that. Time hurtles on faster and faster, Father Death beckoning at road’s end.

Decent voice acting. I think my review of remakes always hinges on whether the new adaptation does something worthwhile to dethrone previous entries. The 3D effects weren't enough for me. I couldn't handle the uncanny valley. Most of the film still feels like a glorified tech demo. Fav scene: introducing the Ghost of Christmas Future when they left us hanging for just a bit, then dropped Carrey down the stairs.

I appreciate the attempt, but what a mess this is. Too scary for kids, too preachy for teenagers, too silly for adults.

While the horror elements are interesting, most of this 'enhanced' retelling of the classic Christmas tale is pretty boring. Coming at the very end of the fifteen year run of Jim-Carrey-can-sell-any-movie-era I expected to be more irritated by his voicing. He is good. The purposely ugly aesthetic is what will keep me from ever revisiting this.

Robert Zemecki's contribution to the interpretation of the book is one of the worst. The effects take over a good story. The film's problem is that Zemecki's can't justify the choise to transform such a good story as A Christmas Carol into a big and embarrassing data-effect party. This movie had been better WITHOUT its animations, instead of drawn out action sequences in a soulless project.

If you can't decide between watching Polar Express for the uncanny valley CGI or the live-action Grinch for Jim Carrey's shenanigans, why not choose both!

Better and darker than I expected but the animation and some of the ride like transitions kept this from being great.

Jim Carrey needs to stick to politics and leave the acting to the politicians.

The motion-capture animation style and strict dedication to its source material makes it feel awkward in more than a few places. However, it mixes its Christmas magic and ghost story suspense well, and the output is gratifying. Jim Carrey works best when they let him off the hinges.
