Audience Member It features a nice collection of beautiful and touching songs, with overall good animation and a fine introduction to Dickens' tale. Aside from the songs, though, I prefer Burbank Films Australia's darker, more sinister and eerie, 1982 version. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/12/23 Full Review Audience Member Timid adaptation of the Dickensian environment,children will be fond of this au contraire to the grown ups who will discover the "undercover" gimmicks of the project,poverty symbols in other words.It's not worthless but even Disney's medieval times back in the 70's weren't so mushy. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 01/27/23 Full Review Read all reviews
