Scrooged is a fabulous rendition of the Christmas classic 'A Christmas Carol'. With an amazing cast and an intriguing storyline it really indulges you into the film and it also makes you remember the true meaning of Christmas.
Frank Cross [Bill Murray.] is a grumpy business man who only cares about making money and getting his TV channel to the top. Then on Christmas eve while his TV channel films a Christmas carol he ends up being haunted by the three famous ghosts himself!
This film is a credit to Christmas and is heart warming while at the same time funny. It is a great film which will be remembered for years to come. The only thing that I can pick out as a fault is all the swearing. So for this reason I am giving this film four stars.
