Spoonatects Am i the only one who thinks........Average?

Senteur As somebody who had not heard any of this before, it became a curious phenomenon to sit and watch a film and slowly have the realities begin to click into place.

Bea Swanson This film is so real. It treats its characters with so much care and sensitivity.

Logan By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.

mgratk No spoilers here unless you're unfamiliar with A Christmas Carol, as this thing, um TV movie, is an attempted retelling. What we have here are actors who are either unskilled or wholly uninspired(and if so, no one can blame them). They mostly sleepwalk through a soul-less, shallow, Christmas Carol in which Scrooge learns to become slightly less selfish, morally bankrupt, and generally horrible to the mostly equally horrible people in her life. Instead of feeding the poor and starving, our Scrooge here redeems herself by feeding celebrities via gift certificates to a restaurant . Really. The best part of the movie is when Jacob Marley/Cupid makes her grand final exit. I was laughing, though the scene was intended to be grand and touching. Redeeming qualities? Well, hmm. OK, the cast are pretty much all eye candy. The lighting and camera work were fine for a TV movie. And I give it points for making me laugh for feeling like the bad boyfriend dodged a bullet while the good guy got stuck with a lifetime of misery. All in all, no Christmas spirit to be found here, and not much of a cupid. I think they called it Christmas Cupid because Christmas Stupid was too honest.

robert-175-215896 Wow this movie was terrible. The acting was come of the worst acting I've ever seen. The main character was not even remotely believable, I'm honestly not sure how she received the part. The premise was rather cheesy, the dialog was poor and cliché, the flow of the film was choppy at best and overall execution was lacking. I almost felt like I was watching a high school play that was being televised, but then again, I've seen some high school plays that weren't this poorly acted. While 'made for TV' movies aren't always the most amazing films in the world, this one takes the genre to a whole new low. Don't waste your time. There are plenty of other similar style films that aren't nearly half as bad as this.

SanteeFats I read some of the 1-2 star reviews. All I can say is that they must be good time haters. This movie is just an update of the Christmas Carol by Dickens. It is just a feel good movie that has been upgraded to the current times with the Scrooge character changed to a woman. I enjoyed it quite a bit. Of course Christina Milan doesn't hurt as I think she is very nice. The acting is decent and in keeping with the theme, what do you want for a feel good Christmas story? I think that if you don't really like a movie like this that your Christmas spirit is pretty low. Of course there are a lot of bah humbuggers out there to try to ruin the season.

CranberriAppl First off, where was Cupid? Was the dead, vapid popstar supposed to be him? If so, they failed terribly. This movie was awful. The story was weak, the acting was bad, and it seemed like ABC just needed a movie for the '25 Days' and settled for anything. This has to be the worst adaptation of A Christmas Carol that I've ever seen. Christina Milian did pretty good in Snowglobe, but this one is pure crap. I don't think Chad Michael Murray is the best actor out there, but he was wasted in this movie. He was barely in it! The story went in too many directions and was never cohesive. Christmas movies are usually fun to watch and I've always enjoyed ABC Family's even back to the days of 'Christmas Everyday' and 'The Christmas List,' but this one should have been sent back to the writer's table until it made some sense.
