Movie Reviews of Scrooge
Movie Review: Thank ya very much!!! Great reviews!
Summary: 5 Stars
If you've never seen this film... AND you love Scrooge movies... AND you love the Spirit of Redemption that "A Christmas Carol" can bring to the depths of your soul... then buy this movie. I don't think I've ever seen such a mismatch between what the "all-knowing critics" have to say about a film and what the fans have to say about a film! Miserly critics always damn this movie with faint praise! Well--the praise for this film (around 400 5 star reviews!) ain't faint! I saw this movie in the theatre when I was twelve and I absolutely loved it... Finney is terrific. No matter the Scrooge move, I always love the transformation that take place at the end of the film. Well--the end of this film is spectacular--and very moving. The fans of the film have it right. Buy this film, enjoy, and be redeemed!
Summary of Scrooge
A mixed bag as variations on A Christmas Carol go, this 1970 British musical tells the usual story of Scrooge (Albert Finney) and his spirits on Christmas Eve, although the whole thing is set to music by Leslie Bricusse. Except for Finney's feisty and involved performance, however, there isn't much to recommend this. The songs, which absorb so much of the evolving story line and emotions, are not all that good. Plenty of support, however, from the likes of Roy Kinnear (Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory) and Dame Edith Evans (Tom Jones), the handsome production is directed by veteran Ronald Neame (The Prime of Miss Jean Brodie). --Tom KeoghKids & Family DVD Video
