I think that the main reason that I adore this film is because it is the first-yes, that's right, first-adaptation of 'A Chritsmas Carol' that I ever saw. I got the video when I was probably no more than about six or seven, and LOVED it, even if the Ghost of Christmas yet to come did scare me out of my wits. Sadly, my little brother got hold of it and watched it until it was completely ruined-thankfully, not before I had got the book, as it is mentioned at the very end of the film-so, obviously I was unable to watch it. But I remembered all the songs, so I got the book of the songs so I could sing them in my singing lessons. Then I found it on DVD and bought it without question because I wanted to be able to sing along to the songs, especially 'When Love is gone' and 'Bless us all'-the one that Tiny Tim sings, which always makes me cry because it is such a beautiful song-but, and now we come to the reason why I didn't give it five stars, when I watches the DVD, I was upset to find that 'When love is gone' was gone!!!!!!!! why? WHY???????
Well, apart from that, it is well worth the money. I have never met anyone who didn't love this film.

Every Christmas we sit down to watch the Muppet's Christmas Carol. The only difference this year was that half the film was missing!!!!
I made the mistake of replacing my VHS copy with the DVD, DO NOT MAKE THE SAME MISTAKE!!! I couldn't believe that this was an edited shorter version of the original film.
This is an amazing film - if it ain't broke DON'T FIX IT!!!
A strange but brilliant take on the classic!!!

This film is brilliant. I really like the original version of The Christmas Carol but find it boring to watch year after year so I bought the Muppets version of the classic and I have to say its brilliant!!! Michael Caine is superb as Scrooge and all the muppet characters are so entertaining. Ok, its abit odd at times but I really did enjoy the film. The important message Dickens was trying to get across in his story is still here and this movie will make for great family viewing.
