Description:

'Tis the season for love, laughter, and one of the most cherished stories of all time! Join Kermit the Frog, Miss Piggy, and all the hilarious Muppets in this merry, magical version of Charles Dickens' classic tale. Academy Award(R) winner Michael Caine (Best Supporting Actor, 2000, THE CIDER HOUSE RULES; 1987, HANNAH AND HER SISTERS) gives a performance that's anything but "bah, humbug!" as greedy, penny-pinching Ebenezer Scrooge. One fateful Christmas Eve, Scrooge is visited by the Ghosts of Christmas Past, Present, and Future. Together with kind, humble Bob Cratchit (Kermit the Frog) and his family, the Spirits open Scrooge's eyes -- and his heart -- to the true meaning of Christmas. Filled with original music and dazzling special effects, this restored and remastered 50th Anniversary Edition of THE MUPPET CHRISTMAS CAROL will become a holiday tradition your family will treasure all the days of the year.~~(C) The Muppets Holding Company, LLC and BVHE.

5Wonderful Christmas MovieJun 07, 2010
Ranks alongside 'Godstone - The Kairos Boxes' and 'Scrooged' as my favorite Christmas movies and books.

5best post-Jim Henson Muppet MovieApr 18, 2010
If you're a fan of Dickens or the Muppets, don't miss this one. Michael Cane is great as Scrooge. Rizzo and Gonzo are our narrators, and they are hilarious. The songs aren't the best, but it's muppet fun that both adults and kids can enjoy. I watch it yearround. The best post-Jim Henson jokes and emotion.

5Skillful, fresh, and humorous adaptation of the Dickens classicApr 13, 2010
"The Muppet Christmas Carol" is extremely comfortable with the specific way it wants to tell Dickens' story, and by definition, is different from any other telling of the classic tale. The risks it takes with the story pay off hugely, and the warmth, humor and overall skill that went into this production is obvious.

Starring Michael Caine as Ebeneezer Scrooge, it features only a very small number of visible human actors. They are not missed, as the vast majority of characters are played by Muppets. There is Kermit The Frog as Bob Cratchit, Miss Piggy as Emily Cratchit,(in this version Bob's wife gets a proper name)and Gonzo as Charles Dickens himself, among many other Muppet characters. The inclusion of a Dickens surrogate is particularly nice, as it functions like an anchor to the original story while also providing an entertaining main narrator for this variation of it.

Also featuring a number of beautiful songs and a great script, "The Muppet Christmas Carol" is unique and timeless.
