"It’s a comedic version of ‘A CHRISTMAS CAROL’ … ‘A CHRISTMAS KAREN,’ where the 3 ghosts visit an entitled white woman…
Low rating on IMDB, but I thought the script was pretty good, and although all the actors in this did a decent job, I could actually envision this being a blockbuster Christmas comedy if someone like Melissa McCarthy was in the starring role, along with 2 or 3 more stellar comedic actors playing the supporting roles (or the 3 ghosts). That, plus it could benefit from some quality set design and some cool special effects & fun stunts.
Anyhoo, if you enjoy holiday flicks or differing versions of the SCROOGE story, this might be one to check out.
I’d maybe give it a 6/10 🤷♀️ It’s watchable, and I commend the creator(s) for actually getting it made & distributed, but, yeah, it could be better if it was beefed up a bit & if it had darker jokes (smutty humor) and some hilarious one-liners like BAD SANTA 🎅 (my holiday favorite🎅).
Thanks @Carolyn1 for recommending! "
"Ya’ know, I went into this just because it was on at the time but it actually kept my attention and was kind of funny. If you run out of normal Christmas fare, you might want to give it a try."
