Story: here's the biggest problem with the movie: the story. I know it's an adaptation and changes have to be made, but they have to make sense! I have two words to describe it: boring and stupid. This is told from the perspective of two annoying mice. I'm not kidding. The editing is clumsy as well as the structure and most of the time, nothing happens which could've been used to explain what was going on because everything is underdeveloped! It doesn't help they expanded Belle's role for the sake of Kate Winslet having more lines and has a subplot involving having to pay money for sick children in a hospital which contributes nothing to the plot nor it was ever in the book. Another problem I have is the script, they add in so many random lines which have nothing to do with the movie and feel like they were added in to make up more time. Speaking of time, despite it being an hour and 10 minutes, it feels much longer because of how much scenes drag or are never mentioned again! But the biggest problem I have is it detracts the themes of the original story. Scrooge feels sorrowed after many years wasted, but what do they do? Give him a second chance of love with Belle! Overall, I think it's lifeless and it feels very slow with nothing explained at all! This actually makes the Robert Zemeckis film look good in terms of story!
Animation: OK, here's another problem with the movie, the animation is crap! It's on par with a Saturday morning cartoon, it's that bad! I'm shocked it got released in cinemas, if I can be honest. What are the problems? Well, the character designs look very odd with no detail whatsoever (especially Belle I think they were trying to make them look more realistic), the character animation is very lazy and stiff, the backgrounds look very dull and uninspired(which is weird, since it's set in the Victorian era, which is a perfect era to look creative), as well as the effects like the magic looking terrible. It doesn't really help that the lip synching is off for most of the movie and at times, their lips don't move properly whenever they say more than one syllable. Overall, some of the worst 2D animation I've ever seen and even direct to video animated films have better quality than this!
