Description
A network TV president is perhaps the most cold-hearted man ever, but his holiday spirit is given a painful booster shot by three vengeful ghosts. In this darkly comic updating of Charles Dicken's Christmas classic "A Christmas Carol," Bill Murray portrays Frank Cross, an evil, crass, executive who caters to the lowest-of-the-lowest common denominators, firing people whenever he wants to and for the flimsiest of reasons. Therefore, to change his cruel and tasteless ways, Cross is taken on a trip through his past to his future, accompanied by ghosts David Johansen and Carol Kane, so that he can achieve redemption.

Only Dickens could rescue such a vulgar adaptation of his timeless tale. Go elsewhere to discover the true meaning of Christmas. Don't ruin your day.
One of my all-time favorites

It’s funny, when this first came out I thought it was cute but didn’t really think about it too hard. Over the years, though, it has grown on me as my #1 fave Christmas movie! Hilarious and touching with a mega-happy ending. Worth seeing once a year!

This is a really weird movie, but I thoroughly enjoy it. Bill Murray is Frank Cross, a workaholic TV executive who is producing a version of "A Christmas Carol". But as the show is being taped, Frank will have some weird experiences similar to those of his show's protagonist. Love it or hate it, the result is one very different Christmas Carol.

Bill Murray in his prime, this movie is a very cool, very fun remake of the classic. If you like Bill Murray, its a no-brainer to at least rent this. I bought a copy because I love it and its made it to my list of Christmas classics. Very funny lines, good charcters, the remake of the three ghosts that visit Scrooge are hillarious. This movie is great fun.

This is my all time favorite Christmas movie!
Bill Murray is excellent in his portrayal as a self centered career minded man who experiences first hand the trials of Ebenezer Scrooge showing him how Christmas can be magical and that it's not too late for any of us to simply reflect on our lives and just be kind to our fellow man and true happiness comes from within.
This is a fun movie from beginning to end and on my personal must see list every December.
Scrooged screws you out of good entertainment

What are people smoking that are rating this movie 4 stars and above? I would have paid another $3.99 rental fee to have my time back!
Stupid story line and dumb dialogue made me turn this movie off after the first 30 minutes. The only redeeming value was the quality of the cast (too bad writers didn't give them a script worthy of their talents).
There are much better holiday themed movies out there. Pass on this one; you will thank yourself for showing good judgement.
A Classic!!

If you have been looking for a Christmas Classic, you have come to the right place. Scrooged is a somewhat updated version of the old Ebeneezer Scrooge tale, this time revolving around Frank Cross (Murray) who's gestapo attitude toward others starts to wear off until Frank gets a visit from his boss. Err, his DEAD boss. What follows is a wild roller coaster ride beginning in his past and ending up at a possible future no one would ever want.
All the stars are great including John Forsythe who plays an unforgettable part. But the REAL magic of the movie is the message you get at the end during Murray's outburst on national television. It kind iof leaves you thinking that there is something more here.
A definate must rent and a definate must watch. Scrooged is great!
Classic

This movie did not put me in the holiday spirit. It kinda just freaked me out and made me wish I'd chosen to watch a different, more classic version. I'd heard that it was funny and heartwarming, but...well...it just wasnt. Ok, ok so it was occasionally funny, but the humor was just cringe-worthy and not fit for the holidays. And forget about heartwarming. I didn't care what happened to Bill Murray at all.
Check out Scrooge, THe Muppet Christmas Carol, or even the new Jim Carrey version. Yeah, the new one wasn't perfect, but it was visually stunning. And all of them are better than this piece of schmaltz.
Meh...

This is one of the best Christmas comedies of recent time! Bill Murray was perfect!
Simply a must have! Of course "The Ref" and "Christmas Vacation" should be on that list too!
I love this movie
