I think my favorite Dickens' ghost story is that one in Cardiff with the undertaker and the psychic.

Great review guys. This was a just right version for Max... for better or worse! (He's age 7, and was ok with it.) For me, it's just too early for a holiday movie!!!

Zemeckis' version is the BEST! The animation and visuals were incredible. Went with my 5, 10 and 13 year olds (boys and girl) and they all LOVED it. We'll be seeing it again for sure. I give it a 5/5.
