David Zucker's "An American Carol" (3 Stars)

Don't listen to me; I think tech manuals are an absorbing adventure. But DHP, now he's a continental, big screen taste tester worthy of your ten bucks:
Yes, I said “brilliant,” and I mean it. Anyone who’s seen Airplane! (1980) or The Naked Gun (1988) knows that Zucker has genius in him, but to transfer that genius so successfully into the Making A Statement department caught me completely by surprise. But first and foremost, An American Carol is absolutely, laugh-out-loud hilarious.

83 minutes. Rated PG-13
