Top cast: Bill Murray, Karen Allen

In a nutshell

In this modern take on "A Christmas Carol", a successful but selfish executive is haunted by 3 spirits bearing lessons on Christmas Eve who give him a chance to address his past actions that drive away his true love.

Our review

Murray wonderfully blends dark aspects of the Dickens classic with his own style of humor. Seems to make most Top Christmas movie lists. For us, this is an annual watch where the jokes never die.
