"Hello! Welcome to the Muppet Christmas Carol! I am here to tell the story."

In the time since it was originally published in 1843, Dickens' A Christmas Carol has been done to death in countless films and television specials, to the extent that another rote movie adaptation would be entirely superfluous without a unique spin. Thus, it was only customary for Jim Henson's Muppets to t... read more

Continuing with my quest to watch all the Muppet movies this year, it was time to watch this 4th installment. Honestly, even though it has some decent ratings, I wasn’t expecting much. Indeed, by now, I have seen so many adaptations of Charles Dickens’ timeless tale, a story I never really loved, and therefore, I didn’t think this one would be much better. Eventually, I was actually positive... read more

An underrated yet extraordinary delight.

The idea of mixing the wacky pack of the Muppets created by Jim Henson with perhaps the classic Christmas tale by Charles Dickens is quite possibly the most unorthodox idea that has ever been put to screen. It became the first time that the Muppets would feature in their own film adaptation of a classic novel as there would be the releases of The Muppet Treasure Island in 1996 and The Muppet’s W... read more

" Brian Henson, the son of Muppet founder Jim Henson, took over directing duties after the untimely death of his father for The Muppet Christmas Carol, a sluggish re-telling of the Charles Dickens tale. Michael Caine, surrounded by legions of fuzzy, felt puppets, plays it straight as the crotchety Ebenezer Scrooge, an old miser who could care less about Christmas and the joy the season brings. Working for the skinflint is his faithful employee Bob Cratchit (Kermit the Frog), who begs Scrooge"

"The Ghost of Christmas Yet To Come "

Kyle Ellis posted a review 2 years, 4 months ago

“The two best Muppet movies after Jim Henson's death are this and Muppets Treasure Island. The worst, I think is Muppets Wizard of Oz. Muppets Christmas Carol is wonderful, and deserves the high rating. I also think the rating for Treasure Island is too low, as I loved that film too.

The Muppets are truly funny here, especially Gonzo and Rizzo, who have the funniest lines. Kermit and Miss Piggy were at their most touching here. Scrooge's encounter with the Marley Brothers was the highlight of the film for me. The high point of the movie is the performance of Michael Caine,(like Tim Curry in Treasure Island) who was the best he was in recent years, and his singing was passable. Very convincing! I personally think this is the funniest post Jim Henson Muppet movie, and was my favouri” read more
