There's something about the simplicity of the animation that works here, and I did quite enjoy that. It's an heavily abridged version of the Charles Dickens story of the miser who finds redemption at Christmas thanks to the intervention of his old (deceased) partner "Marley" and three ghosts. The ch ... aracterisation of "Scrooge" as a scrawny, big-nosed, curmudgeon is maybe a little too much of a caricature, but it still delivers quite chillingly well as we learn a little more of how they unscrupulously made their fortune and of how they are now held by the population in general - rich and poor. There's even a song or two to help it along and on the whole it passes forty-five minutes entertainingly enough. It's always going to be difficult to find a new slant on this epitome of tales of venality and selfishness, but there's enough originality here to make it worth a watch.
