An American Carol

ChristianMan: update rottontomatoes rating - added box office info

[[Image:Anamericancarol.jpg|right|thumb]]
'''An American Carol''' is a movie by director David Zucker released on October 3, 2008. It is a rare comedy made in Hollywood by conservatives, for conservatives. It is a gag-filled lampoon of [[liberal]]s about a cynical, Anti-American “Hollywood” documentary filmmaker leading a slapstick campaign to abolish the [[Fourth of July]]. It stars Kevin Farley, brother of the late [[Chris Farley]], as a scruffy Michael Moore parody named Michael Malone. "An American Carol" mixes the narrative of Charles Dickens' "A Christmas Carol" with Fox News fodder.<ref>[http://www.newsmax.com/insidecover/american_carol/2008/10/03/137000.html American Carol' Lampoons the Left] NewsMax, October 3, 2008</ref> Many highly recognized Hollywood actors star in the film including Kelsey Grammer, Dennis Hopper, Jon Voight, Robert Davi, and Leslie Nielsen with Cameo appearances by [[Bill O'Reilly]], James Woods and [[Paris Hilton]].

Besides spoofing [[Michael Moore]], 'An American Carol' roasts [[jihad]]ists, [[Rosie O'Donnell]], college professors, [[Neville Chamberlain]], [[Adolf Hitler]], President [[Jimmy Carter]], chanting protesters and the [[ACLU]]. Zucker co-wrote the film with Myrna Sokoloff and Lewis Friedman. Zucker directed the previous hit comedies 'Airplane!', 'The Naked Gun' and 'Scary Movie 3 & 4'.

==Zucker’s sense of humor==
In a scene which shows anti-war protesters chant, “Peace now. We don't care how!” as they carry signs that read:
* End Violence — War Is Not the Answer!
* End Disease — Medicine Is Not the Answer!
* It's Too Dark Outside — The Sun Is Not the Answer!
* Overpopulation — Gay Marriage Is the Answer!

==Box Office performance==
An American Carol made $3.8 million in its opening weekend, beating [[Bill Maher]]'s movie [[Religulous]] which was released about the same time, which in contrast only made $3.5 million.

==Movie Reviews==
Due to its conservative theme, the movie currently has a 14% approval rating on rottentomatoes.com, meaning that only 14% of reviewers gave the movie a positive review. Critics give the movie an average rating of 3.3 out of 10.<ref>[http://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/an_american_carol/?name_order=asc T-meter critics], Rotten Tomatoes</ref> Audiences, however, have a 75% approval rating, with an average rating of 7.3 out of 10.<ref>[http://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/an_american_carol/reviews_users.php RT Community], Rotten Tomatoes</ref>

==Liberal Conspiracy==
