Customer Reviews of Rich Little's Christmas Carol

This is on the top of my Xmas traditions!
I've watched this tape every Christmas for as long as I can remember. Even though I'm only in my 20's and most of the jokes sailed over my head until I grew up, I still found this movie vastly entertaining! Growing up and getting all the impression references just made it even better for me. The jokes are cleverly written and the music is actually very heartwarming and fitting for a Christmas movie. Even if you don't get all the people that Rich Little is imitating or understand all the references, give this movie a chance as a ridiculous and funny twist on an old classic. <

>I'm so glad to have found this item on Amazon.com so I can replace the aging VHS tape that my family has had for over 25 years. Without it, our Christmases just wouldn't be the same!

Dated but GREAT
The laugh-track might be a bit distracting. This is certainly dated... Imitations include W.C. Fields, Paul Lynde, Richard Nixon, James Mason, Jack Benny, Johnny Carson (my favorite), Columbo, Bogart, Inspector Clouseau, Truman Copote, Laurel & Hardy, Groucho Marx, Jimmy Stewart, Edith Bunker, John Wayne, and George Burns. HOWEVER, I LOVE IT. I was born in 67, and I never tire of this show. I even love the music. This show has a special warmth about it. In fact, the only reason I notice the laugh-track is probably because I've watched it so much.

An Interesting Adaptation Of A Christmas Carol.
I remember watching a rerun of Rich Little's Christmas Carol on cable and I enjoyed how Rich Little could do imitations of celebrity voices but I can't rate this a 5 because it is a little dated and as talanted as Rich Little was I started to get really bored during the middle of this Christmas show. I would recommend this to anyone who likes Rich Little and The Christmas Carol story but this will probably seem dated to anyone who didn't grow up seeing the original airing and some of the celebrity voices he imitates may only known to older people. I actuallt pretty much enjoyed watching this and I thought it was very interesting! BTW: Don't expect an absolutely faithful adaptation of the Charles Dickens classic, this is really more of a showcase for the impressionist voice talents of Rich Little and his fans so if you are a Charles Dickens purist who only likes The Christmas Carol story to be told in the traditional way then this probably won't be your cup of tea but if you watch it with an open mind and you know who Rich Little is you just may surprise yourself by enjoying this but little kids will probably be bored. I will rate this at 4 stars because Rich Little is good and I enjoyed this for the most part.
