TIS' THE SEASON TO WATCH CRAP!
MOVIE REVIEW: MISTER SCROOGE TO SEE YOU (My Amazon Review)
BLOODY AWFUL!!!!
Take note: this will probably be one of the only
REAL, reviews you will read on here...Before you spend a minute watching this
or worse yet, spend a dime on it, please read on...
I love "A Christmas Carol" and
"Scrooge", so naturally I was immediately drawn to the possibility of
a sequel to Charles Dickens "A Christmas Carol". After seeing all of
these positive reviews, I decided to pay for this train wreck -disaster of a
film. Where do I start? First of all, I would venture to guess that about 95%
of the "positive" reviews on here are either fake or from friends and
family of the people involved in this nightmare of a movie. The acting is so
beyond bad, that you will find yourself laughing as you pay homage to the
porcelain God..several times. I have seen better actors in infomercials and bad
local car and insurance commercials. There is a ton of ridiculous
inconsistencies. For instance, in 1800's London ,, there was no electric
fireplaces. Would it have killed them to use a real fireplace or just not even
show the fireplace in the scene at all? Also, how in 2013 did no one ever hear
of Charles Dickens "A Christmas Carol"?. The worst part of all, is
that it is HEAVILY doused in religious over AND undertones. Very preachy and
obviously made by a Christian movie company. If I had known that, I would have
NEVER spent a dime on this joke of a movie. I think that the original idea of a
sequel, though strange in itself, was clever but poorly executed. I could see
with some real writing, production and acting, that someone could do some
justice to the sequel idea. Perhaps even a Lifetime or Hallmark TV movie. The
only person that could act and was entertaining and almost believable, was the
actor who played Ebeneezer Scrooge (David Ruprecht). The award for the worst
actress on film, goes to Arlensiu Novelli who played Petra. I'm not sure which
is worse, her awful accent or her atrocious acting? The "villain",
Timothy Cratchit VI (Matt Koester's) forgettable performance falls somewhere in
between raging psychopath and serial rapist. Can you say overacting? However,
the award for the most , over the top, overacting goes to dear St. Nick himself
Torry Martin. Just unbelievably awful. You have to see it for yourself. I think
writer/director Steven F. Zambo, needs to keep his day job. Either that, or he
found his true calling of making awful movies. This movie is so bad, that I
haven't even seen it on those bad religious, cable TV stations. It is
appallingly insulting to the cinematic world. To be fair, writer/director
Steven F. Zambo, did have a good idea, but he needs LOTS of help to turn his
vision into something remotely watchable. To sum up. This movie is a can of
cheese whiz, complete with atrocious acting and writing, as well as heavily
riddled with inconsistencies and dreched in religious undetones. I can't
believe I wasted good money on this yuletide crap fest!
