"Bill Murray is back among the ghosts,
Only this time, it is three against one."
Rabbit's Rate: **** (out of *****)
Classic Description:
Remake of the Dicken's classic, A Christmas Carol. Also a big
comeback movie of Bill Murray. Scrooged, co-starring Karen Allen, Robert
Mitchum, directed by Richard Donner, became a modern Christmas classic. Murray's
mean performance (Frank Cross) in the film once again proves his ability to make drama; of
course, he got a lot humors in the movie that could make us laugh for a thousand times!
