Watched this last night, and it was perfectly suited for a ‘heartwarming’ Christmas movie. Not a huge fan of Will Ferrell, and Ryan Reynolds is mostly tolerable because he makes fun of himself.
You can’t stop watching yet another take on A Christmas Carol, though, can you? Even one that is a musical with only one good singer who doesn’t get much to do (for the record, the actress playing the Ghost of Christmas Past).
I will say the production numbers are really well done, even if the movie could have been a very enjoyable 90 minutes instead of bloated past two hours.
I might watch this again if it were on, but I’m not going to seek it out. The best part of it was watching it with family.
