98 Scrooged

Bill Murray is back among the ghosts. Only this time, it's three against one.

“If I was in charge...and I am.”

Scrooged beat shawshank redemption???? YES. Not for the writing or the acting. It is a fun retelling of a classic and I am a Bill Murray fan. Murray is best in comedy when he is highly stressed and pulls off the smooth lounge relaxed lines. “Hey that may work on the ladies big guy but not on me”..Talking to Ghost of Christmas future. Fun movie. I like the dark atmosphere although not directed by him it has a very Burton quality to it. I actually never really liked the Christmas carol story.I thought it was stiff and boring, but I like this flick. Probably another influence in me liking this is the soundtrack, my ears like Danny Elfman. *note a rare non annoying, performance by Bobcat Goldwait of Police Acadamy fame.

Status: own it
