Carol's Christmas (2021) is a movie I recently watched on Amazon Prime. The storyline follows an independent woman set in her ways on running her businesses, achieving her wealth and treating people like they're all beneath her. As Christmas approaches, which she could care less about, those around her hope she sees the errors of her ways.
This movie is directed by David S Womack (Body Count) in his directorial debut and stars Lauren Cakes (We Extra), Lindsey Cruz (Neon), Brenda Daly (Abigail Haunting) and Trap Gambino (Killer Popcorn).
The storyline seemed a bit far fetched based on the setting and era, which is essentially "A Christmas Carol" in present day Las Vegas. The Dickens terminology worked into the interactions seemed forced and awkward. Many of the conversations were also awkward and didn't seem natural. Ill give the scammer at the door credit, he had some good jokes. The ghosts were more unique than good. The concluding premise was actually very good and I liked it, but they should have shown the scene rather than hearing sound effects and cutting away.
Overall the writing and execution wasn't as good as the premise and conclusion. I'd score this uneven movie a 3/10 and recommend skipping.
