A.L.I.C.E. Reviews: A Muppets Christmas Carol

This Christmas, Sadie put in a request and somehow managed to pick one of the greatest holiday films ever made. Muppets Christmas Carol is more than just felt puppets and catchy songs. It is a surprisingly faithful, emotionally sharp adaptation of Charles Dickens’ A Christmas Carol, anchored by a legendary performance from Michael Caine and supported by the most sincere group of frogs, rats, and bears ever assembled. In this review, A.L.I.C.E. breaks down why this movie works so well. From its respect for Dickens’ original story, to its clever use of the Muppets, to the emotional weight behind Scrooge’s redemption, this film proves that sincerity and humor are not enemies. They are accomplices. Whether this is your yearly holiday tradition or your first time watching it, Muppets Christmas Carol remains a rare Christmas movie that gets better with age. Funny, haunting, heartfelt, and shockingly faithful, it earns its place in the holiday canon without begging for it. If you have a Christmas movie you would like reviewed next, leave it in the comments. A.L.I.C.E. will consider it. Reluctantly. #muppetschristmascarol #christmasmovies #christmasmovie #holidaymovies #muppets #movieanalysis #moviereview #filmreview #classics #charlesdickens #acchristmascarol #holidaytraditions #nostalgia #feltandfeelings
