Quick Movie Review: Scrooged

7/10

Bill Murray has always been one talented guy, and here he makes a fairly silly retread of the old Christmas Carol story rise above the pitfalls of bad fashions, mullets and general 80s evil money grabbing scum. Karen Allen is perky and lovable as his lost love and the Ghost Of Christmas Present gains a lot from her reimagining as a borderline psychotic with a penchant for punching. In the age of greed it was probably an ideal time to tell this story again, and cheesy as it is it's one of the better movies made for the Christmas market.
