Andrea C @RT39865849 58 min ago Well, here's a surprise. This is actually rather good. For a start, it looks absolutely gorgeous. The production design, costumes, sets, lighting and cinematography are all wonderful, creating a beautifully atmospheric Dickensian London, dark, gloomy, cold and full of shadows. What makes this version stand out is its willingness to embrace the horror elements of Dickens' original story. The ghosts are genuinely terrifying, the atmosphere is often incredibly dark, and the sound design is packed with ominous noises and sudden jolts that will make you jump out of your seat. And then there's Johnny Depp.. A little bit of Jack Sparrow does creep through, but when Depp holds back, he's actually rather wonderful. Indeed, his best moments are the quieter, more emotional ones, when he doesn't need to do very much at all: a look, a reaction, a moment of regret or vulnerability. That's when you remember what a good actor he can be, and that's when his performance really comes alive. See more

Justin E @TheMechanic607 1 hr ago Johnny Depp is at the top of his game as #Ebenezer. A spookier, more horror-centric take, Ti West approaches Charles Dickens’ A Christmas Carol with the gothic flourishes of a classic Hammer film. A fresh retelling of the classic story worth seeing. See more
