This was a real let down. I wanted so to like it, the first 45 minutes looked so promising. The ghosts were unconvincing... they had little affect on Scrooge and his minimal change, little to no redemption, missing the entire moral teaching Dickens so beautifully penned. Charles Dickens story is barely recognizable in this adaptation. Mary Cratchet seems to have the power to summon spirits and calls them down upon Scrooge leaving us with a bad taste in a not so memorable ending.... Oh well, I will let you make up your own mind as I was very disappointed, it could have been so much better.
