A man named Miser Ebeneezer Scrooge wakes up from his sleep because of a group of spirits on Christmas Eve. The lives reveal the misery, the bad life, the opportunities that he easily wasted, and the conflicts he will face in a few days, and may tell him about the harsh fate that will follow him at that time. Perhaps it is a terrifying story in the life of that man whose life has turned into a nightmare. There are many phenomena that happen on Christmas and may change a lot.

The motion capture animation is top-notch and it's hard not to be impressed with what Robert Zemeckis has wrought, even if there's the occasional sense he's pandering to an audience that can't get through a 90 minute story without a few yuks and a chase.
