Spirited Review
Music Saves ’Spirited’ from being just another ’Christmas Carol’ adaption. Benj Pasek and Justin Paul’s music is the real star of the movie, with Will Ferrell and Ryan Reynolds giving performances similar to their own public personas.The movie is yet another adaption of the Charles Dickens classic ‘A Christmas Carol,’ with Will Ferrell playing the role of Christmas Present.
Considering retirement after the holidays, Present chooses to haunt Clint Briggs (Ryan Reynolds), an arrogant public relations executive who is completely aware of Dickens’ story and what is happening.
