One of many "A Christmas Carol" spoofs, I wouldn't say it's "Christmas Vacation," but there's still plenty of laughs.

Fun, tongue-in-cheek, twist on the familiar Dickens story. Bill Murray is fantastic and delivers some of the best lines of the film. Occasionally, the film dips into corny material, but what Christmas film doesn't? By the end, the message is contagious and it's honestly a film to watch every holiday season.

Scrooged is a remake of The Christmas Carol, but this version is utterly forgettable. Richard Donners direction is good but this screenplay is ugly and cruel. Bill Murray's character is highly unlikable. This movie is one bad thing after another and it never seems like the entertainment is going to begin. This should not be anyone's idea of a heartwarming holiday movie.

Murray is great as the horrible TV exec. Lots of funny lines. We watch this every Christmas season.

An updated take on Dicken's Christmas Carol sees Bill Murray as Scrooge - a heartless TV exec with no Christmas cheer. Visited by three spirits, he realizes a good life is worth living after all. Funny, sweet and overall a good film.
