A Christmas Carol Ratings & Reviews
- DANNYZUKO78December 25, 2025I LOVE STORY OF A CHRISTMAS CAROL MARRY CHRISTMAS 🎄
- Charles LondonFebruary 15, 2025Not the best version of the classic holiday tale, but a worthy effort nonetheless. Reginald Owen is no Alastair Sim ("Scrooge", 1951) but he does give a solid performance and the movie makes for an enjoyable holiday experience. I will always remember this one for the ice-sliding and snowballing scenes which don't appear in the book or any other adaptations.
