    My favorite movie version of the story, mostly for Bill, but the rest of the cast is quite good too.

    It was ok. There were a few funny parts, but it was kinda cheesy overall. It made me realize that I'm not a big Murray fan.

    It's one of Murray's funnier films and certainly one of the better Christmas movies around (not that that's a hard thing to achieve!)

    a hilarious retelling of the classic story. sometimes the retelling of this same tale gets repetitive, but this film re-energized this tale in humor and creativity that is not possible to dislike. bobcat was a nice touch and obviously murray was solid as always, a christmas com...( read more)edy classic.

    Dickens' ubiquitous seasonal tale gets yet another re-telling in this amiably dated 80s comedy. Bill Murray stars as a tyrannical TV network president who goes through the usual learning the "true spirit of Christmas"motions via ghostly visitation. As is always the case with this...( read more) type of thing, it's reliant on saccharine drenched sentimentality, but Richard Donner actually manages for the most part to temper it with some post modern slapstick and Murray's deadpan wit. It gets a little nauseating towards the end, the subplot featuring his secretary's son left me feeling particularly bilious. But the first half of the film is classic Murray and the ghosts are all good fun. One of the few Christmas films that I can watch without having to reach for the sick bucket.

    This is kind of a wierd one, but think about it--the story of Ebeneezer Scrooge is sorta strange. This one is wierd, funny, and then heart warming! Bill Murray is great! On my "Movies I Like To Watch Around Christmas Time" list. VHS.
