Miser Ebenezer Scrooge is awakened on Christmas Eve by spirits who reveal to him his own miserable existence, what opportunities he wasted in his youth, his current cruelties, and the dire fate that awaits him if he does not change his ways. Scrooge is faced with his own story of growing bitterness and meanness, and must decide what his own future will hold: death or redemption.

Wikipedia tells me the budget for this film was $17 million but the CGI and makeup tells me otherwise

it’s not that i completely disagree with a musical version of a christmas carol cause i love the muppets version, i mean the songs are fun, it just kinda waters down the story in this adaptation
