Christmas is already here, so it means the movies for this season have already arrived. Usually I avoid this kind of cliché movies, but this year there was an interesting candidate.I believe last time I went to a theater for a Christmas movie it was for "How the Grinch Stole Christmas"... with Jim Carrey too, yes.
What pulled me to watch "A Christmas Carol" was the technical side, because there's a big improvement from movies like "The Polar Express" or "Beowulf".
The story we all already know: old man, named Scrooge, who hates Christmas, is visited by 3 ghosts and at the end he changes completely overnight... literaly! :-)
The quality of the computer animated characters is very good and we can see all Scrooge's details.
But I was disappointed with the 3D. Honestly this movie could really skip the 3D version because it doesn't bring anything special.
One problem with 3D movies is... the subtitles! Subtitles are rendered in first plan, giving you the idea the movie is playing behind! So it makes very very hard to focus and very hard to notice the movie in full 3D, because you keep focusing at different distances (not to mention the headaches!).
Let's see what "Avatar" has to show... I'm really waiting to be astonished! ;-)
