        Clever re-telling of Dickensian morality tale. Attractive and endearing cast and sweet message of love and forgiveness.

        Got dragged to the cinema to watch this and if i'm honest it wasn't nearly as bad as I thought, The story is nicked from the Christmas Carol, Had some funny bits, But like most it got too serious and boring.

        The most redeeming feature of this movie is that it's just not as bad as some other romantic comedies.

        Well, it's a modern version of A Christmas Carol with a little twist. Script was brainless but it's still fun to watch
