Here is My Movie Review of Spirited

So basically what happens is that you have this guy named Clint Briggs who is running this company that sells Christmas stuff so he  can boost his own ego essentially he designs to use social media to ruin people's lives essentially. Then he is visited by the ghost of  Christmas present and he takes him to the past, the present and the future In order to help Clint Briggs to and turn his life around. That is basically what the story is for this movie. 

The acting in this movie is really excellent Because I think the actors give it their all. 

Ryan Reynolds does an awesome job as the character of Clint Briggs. Now Clint Briggs as a character is at first really unlikable; he uses social media to boost his own ego. He constantly ignores his niece. All he cares about is getting money and selling Christmas stuff. But then he starts to fix all the bad things that he has done and he starts to become a better person as the film goes on. Probably the funniest scene in this movie with Clint Briggs is when he is visited by Jacbo Marley trying to sing the song the story of your life. But every time he tries to sing the song Clint Briggs keeps interrupting him by asking him so many questions. But probably the saddest thing is where Clint Briggs has to go to the path to see his sister dying in the hospital. It is probably why the saddest scenes in the film The chemistry between him and Tracy Morgan and Will Ferrell is really tremendous. 

Tracy Morgan does a terrific job as the character of Yet-To Come. What makes Yet- To Come such a great character is He basically shows Clint Briggs what happens if he doesn't change his ways because in the future he has caused a little kid to end his own life. So in this movie Yet- To Come is essentially the grim reaper in the film. The chemistry between him and Ryan Reynolds is really spectacular. 

However the actor that really steals the show in this movie is Will Ferrell as  Present. What makes  Present such an extraordinary character and that all he wants to do is to help Clint Regions redeem himself so he could become mortal and have a family and live on earth. Also the twist reveal of  Present being the original Scrooge was really surprising. Probably the funniest moment in this film is where This guy says good afternoon and then Present hits the guy's car and he says what did you say?. It is probably the funniest moment in the entire film. The chemistry between him and Ryan Reynolds is really phenomenal. 

The soundtrack in this movie is really remarkable because I think it is up there with the soundtracks in Guide to the Galaxy and Guardians of the Galaxy Vol 2 in terms of really great songs. My favorite songs in this movie are the opening song `` Christmas Feeling It,'' that  is the perfect way to start out the movie.  It's just a really great way to get in the holiday spirit of Christmas. But probably the funniest song is Good Afternoon because a long time ago good afternoon meant Fuck Off.

The directing by Sean Ander is really terrific. What I like about his directing is that he basically took the Christmas carol story and may into a modern day musical. I think it is really interesting how I did that. But I also like how he added a message in the movie and the message is that a person is not really nice but they could still change and be redeemed because some people are not really nice but they can change by just being happy and learning to be more kind. I think it is really amazing how he did that. 

So in conclusion. I really enjoyed this movie. I really enjoyed the unique take on a Christmas Carol by making it into a musical. I also like how the movie gives you a really good message at the end of the movie. Ryan Reynolds and Will Ferrell have really great chemistry in this movie. This is still one of the funniest movies of 2022. It is also up there with Cherry with Tom Holland as one of my favorite Apple TV Plus films. I think more people should watch it especially if you like a Christmas Carol with Jim Carrey. I give this movie a 10/10.
