Great movie. Not a fan of most movies from the 80's, My wife is, but man this movie is very funny !! Started watching it and after a few minutes got sucked into it. Great.

Scrooged is a movie that breaks the mold for me. It really does. I don't care for cliche filled holiday films and I'm especially tired of the constant remakes and ripoffs of the classic "A Christmas Carol" story. But I love this movie. Bill Murray steals the show and makes this a yearly must watch. Bill Murray as Frank Cross is so hilariously mean spirited. The story has also been altered enough to make it fresh and appealing. Who doesn't burst out laughing after seeing the ghost of Christmas present hit Bill with a Toaster? Good stuff. Of Course you get the typical happy ending, but that's ok...Bill makes that side splitting hilarious too. It's a fun movie. I love it.

Probably my favorite Xmas movie. Works both as an update of A Christmas Carol and as a Bill Murray comedy. The sentimentality toward the end may be too much for some. This is a classic.

Somehow I think this movie has slipped past many people's radars and if you ask me, it is Must See for the holidays!

This is the worst Christmas movie I have ever seen. This is probably the worst Christmas movie ever made.

I don't know if it gets any better because after an hour i couldn't watch any more of it. I was so bored that i almost fell asleep. I laughed at the beginning because it had a few jokes but after the first ghost (The ghost of christmas past) i got so bored. It delivered the message of Christmas in a very dark disturbing way. The dead guy in the beginning was disgusting and disturbing. Like i said, of what i saw it did get the message of Christmas across except not the holly jolly way we think of. The movie is dark and i was dissapointed. People said that it was hilarious and it is one of the best Christmas movies made. I disagree. Bill Murray's life in the beginning was good and i did laugh untill that dead guy showed up, after that, the movie goes downhill. I never finished it so i don't know how it goes. But what i saw convinced me that it wasn't good.
