With Thanksgiving behind us, it's time for Christmas!!
The Muppet Christmas Carol is the 1992 musical film adapting the famous Charles Dickens book to the big screen. Starring, of course, the Muppets. Gonzo stars as the narrator, breaking the fourth wall with Rizzo the Rat as they describe what's happening to Ebenezer Scrooge, the gruff old man who loves only money and treats others unjustly (and ungenerously). But one night, Scrooge will be visited by three spirits, each with a message on what really matters in life. Will Scrooge repent, or is it too late?
This is a good telling of an outstanding book, done in the signature muppets style of humor and wit appropriate for all ages. The songs are decent- some catchy, some just so-so- but the main message is there, and that's what matters.
Rating: A
