Scrooged
Frank Crosse is experiencing a new experience, where events seem more exciting and enjoyable through his strange career.

Frequently funny take on Dickens' "A Christmas Carol" with Murray learning a lesson.

In spite of the jokes at the expense of television-network censors, there's very little in the film, aside from naughty words, that wouldn't be perfectly acceptable on prime-time television.

Despite the juicy, on-the-edge craziness, Murray is able to layer his outrageous histrionics with an inner sensibility, making his ultimate transformation not only believable but Christmas-cheer uplifting.

It's got Bill Murray, and that's always a good thing.

An appallingly unfunny comedy, and a vivid illustration of the fact that money can't buy you laughs.

A meaningful Christmas Carol this is not, but a perfectly entertaining yuletide comedy this certainly is.

If Donner and his team had any interest in the story's message, they've picked a puzzling way to show it.

Bill Murray is the one of the greatest screen Scrooges in this 1980s updating.

Rowdy stuff for the light in head.

A number of talented actors appear, but only a few are able to make much of a mark given their limited screentime.

Murray, it's clear today, was the perfect Scrooge of the '80s.

Tacky in the extreme, this self-congratulatory 1988 film is an exercise in hypocrisy, indulging every form of Christmas exploitation that it pretends to attack, and many of the laughs are forced.
