Badly made animated version, 17 December 2001
Author: jlon from Dublin

Crikey, how many versions of this story have been filmed? This one starts off with a live sequence and then turns into a dull animated movie. I always wondered if Scrooge was as heartless as made out. If so, then he wouldn't have been so bothered about peoples' opinions of him. Those stupid mice should have been killed off in the first scene. Easily the best sequence was the Kate Winslet song. If you want kids to watch this story then get "A Muppet Christmas Carol" instead.
