Started off promising, even if it was a bit dark and twisted. But the huge deviation from the original moral of the story was disappointing. Trying to bring in the modern "me too" twist did nothing for the story and only took focus away from the real story of Scrooge's transformation from bitter old miser to generous man who truly had something to offer. Too much time was spent on the past and the ridiculous Mary storyline, not enough on Scrooge's path to redemption, which never really materialized in this version.
