There's a priceless lesson at the heart of Dickens' classic Christmas story, which I'm sure is why it remains timeless. But it's also been done to death six ways from Sunday. So adding a Muppet twist to the proceedings is a breath of fresh air. Those characters (and the brilliant puppeteers) add heaps of personality. Especially Rizzo. Michael Caine's a terrific Scrooge and really sells the uplifting finale. And it doesn't matter how many times I've seen this, his "Not Tiny Tim!" always hits me where I live.
Good stuff.
