A Christmas Carol (2019)
Better Than Expected

All reviews I read were fairly negative. I watched this movie anyway and really liked it. This movie presents a more authentic depiction of mid-19th century London than past versions and it certainly isn't candy-coated. The acting is excellent and there is a very clear message about greed and its effects. The plot follows the basic structure of the story - the important components are the same but it is a very loose adaptation.The important thing is that it succeeds in transmitting the intended message. If you are looking for a faithful, by-the-book adaptation, this is not the movie for you. I recommend watching it with an open mind.
