'The Man Who Invented Christmas'

for thematic elements and some mild language

Dan Stevens stars as Charles Dickens in the film that is part Dickens biography, part "A Christmas Carol." The film has warmth, charm and holiday spirit. (1:44)

The Agatha Christie mystery, set aboard a train, finds a reluctant detective Hercule Poirot (Kenneth Branagh, leading a star-studded cast) pressed into duty when a murder is discovered. The film is a rollicking ride until the end. (1:54)
