My personal rating of a Christmas movie is if I feel more excited, and good about Christmas. I want to feel the Christmas spirit more at the end of a Christmas movie then at the beginning. I thought there was going to be some hope to this at the beginning of A Very Murray Christmas. The first ten minutes I thought was going to be a setup to the eventual release of Christmas Spirit later. I was surprised at Bill Murray's voice in the first song, but later songs seemed to be just a way to have him sing more and the quality of his singing got worse and worse. It was almost like they said, he sang good on the first song, we don't have to worry about any of the others. However, the more I watched, the sadder I got. The more I listened, the less I wanted to. By the end of the movie all remnants of Christmas Spirit had faded away in a smog of sadness. This will never be seen in my house again.
