The Muppets perform the classic Dickens holiday tale, with Kermit the Frog playing Bob Cratchit, the put-upon clerk of stingy Ebenezer Scrooge (Michael Caine). Other Muppets -- Miss Piggy, Gonzo, Fozzie Bear and Sam the Eagle -- weave in and out of the story, while Scrooge receives visits from spirits of three Christmases -- past, present and future. They show him the error of his self-serving ways, but the miserable old man seems to be past any hope of redemption and happiness.
"Although the story has been Muppetised (with Fozzie Bear as Fozziwig, the owner of a rubber-chicken factory), no attempt has been made to water down the story, and the poignancy of the moral tale is as affecting as ever." - Radio Times
"Although the Muppets pile on the wit and child-friendly slapstick, they never dumb down, and never compromise their story's literary origins." - Daily Telegraph
"Vastly enjoyable... Michael Caine is perfect in the role and there are many genuine belly laughs." - Empire Magazine
"The late Jim Henson would have been proud of the job that his son did directing this production. It's a solid Muppets feature. Call it 'The Muppets Take Dickensian London'." - Movie Metropolis
