Too Focused on Effects & Scarey for Little Childre

Too much time was spent flying through the air to emphasize 3-D effects.
The movie's plot and character development suffered as a result. You never got to feel sorry for Scrooge, or sad for the loss of Tiny Tim. Because you never really got to know any one of the characters in the movie.
Jim Carey's multiple role playing abilities proves his talent. But none created great character empathy.
This version needed some of the same reflection as the original Dicken's Scrooge goes through, so it too could have changed directions.
Finally-- a warning. Don't be fooled into taking pre-teens into the movie, just because its an animated 3-D adventure. There are some frightening images and situations.
No, I do not recommend this movie.
