I love this version, and I feel like people who dislike it went into it expecting the usual formula of obvious redemption and happiness at the end. In my opinion, this one was much more realistic and gritty, and it was all the more excellent for it. It touches on real, plausible things that could easily have happened to drive someone to be like Scrooge. I thought the part with [spoiler]Ali Baba was wonderful, and helped humanize him immensely, the same with the pet mouse.[/spoiler] I admit, the first viewing, the use of the f-word was jarring, but let's face it, the first recorded use of the word was in 1503. People in the 1900s would've been using it too.
