The movie itself isn't that bad, it's a faithful adaptation, but that's what I don't like about it.
The story of A Christmas Carol has been retold so many times that I feel there really needs to be strong justification to make yet another adaptation. I mean, what's even the point of making a movie if you're just going to tell the exact same story that's been told ad nauseam?
There's nothing original about this one other than a few musical numbers and a dog, it's essentially the same movie we've all seen dozens of times before. I honestly wouldn't be surprised if every single line was pulled directly from another adaptation, it's so generic that they didn't even need to bother hiring writers.
