Let's be realistic.

In truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.

I have read most of Dickens' work and a couple of biographies. This film is well done, imaginative and very entertaining. It doesn't need to be factual to be enjoyed.

While this film reserves its roles for women in a typical fashion - the supporting wife, the supporting maid, the loving mother - the way they portray Charles Dicken's writing mannerisms is wonderful. Also the set pieces are extremely delightful, and the way the story unfolds is pretty original. You get to see the behind the scenes of a story which seems so engrained in Christmas culture, that makes you forget that Christmas wasn't always the holiday that it is today.

This is a film based on the events that drove Charles Dickens to write one of the most popular books of all time.The film is well made and it seem authentic. The problem is we know this "gamble" will pay off. No suspense but otherwise a good film

I am afraid that Dan Stevens will be immortal; as the unfortunate Mr Crawley. His pouting skills are exemplary in this little piece of confectioner's nonsense as he gave us an unfortunately over excited version of Charles Dickens, but all else fails. Despite the beautifully constructed and photographed sets we were asked to suspend all belief in a real world and accept that Dickens was motivated by cartoon characters of his imagination. Old stagers Plummer and Pryce acted him off the set in this christmas twinkle.
