I can understand why this movie is as divisive as it is among different generations of movie fans, it's a retelling of a Christmas classic. For me, I can't help but enjoy it. Is the acting over the top? Yes. Does said acting work from anyone other than Jim? Rarely. But yet, the film doesn't overstay it's welcome, visually it's very whimsical and fantastic, and Carrey's performance is unforgettable. Ron Howard did exactly what I believe this film was meant to do and that is to be an entertaining entry into any Christmas Season watchlist.
