I really wanted to see this movie after seeing the previews during another 3D movie event. First thing...Jim Carrey is awesome and will undoubtedly earn awards for this movie. But... I read a lot of the reviews before going to see the movie. Calling the movie "dark" doesn't even begin to convey this movie. Not only is it dark from a humor standpoint, but dark physically as well....the whole movie is in the dark except the end. The flight scenes are very cool as are the snow effects. I don't think it is appropriate for under 13... younger children will like the effects but will not understand the concepts. The movie is rather boring overall; the best part of the movie was shown on the previews. I wouldn't go again.
