If you want to read lengthy, drawn-out reviews of the movies in theaters now (or soon to be) then this isn't the blog you should be reading. Most of the posts from The Other Critic are short, sweet and to the point; that's how we roll here.

We also don't just focus on current movies. Let's face it, there are plenty of good movies that have been made, and sometimes viewers have a tendency to forget that there is more to life than movies in the theaters.

With all that said, please enjoy the short and concise, and sometimes opinionated reviews. If you don't like them, that's okay—we won't hold it against you.

A Christmas Carol; A New Take on an Old Classic

Tis the season for holiday movies, both old and new. I had the opportunity to take my family to see the new version of Dickens A Christmas Carol starring Jim Carrey. We've all read the story, or at least heard it. There wasn't really anything different story wise to this version, but it went above and beyond when it came to the animation. Very realistic and detailed, things really came to life - especially the Scrooge character.

It is a little scary in parts, especially for little kids, but over all this was a really good film, full of everything that makes for a good holiday feel good movie.
