I honestly feel bad for the people who produced and starred in "An American Carol". These poor souls will never be able to work in Hollywood again, after making a Pro America comedy that pokes fun at those on the left, such as Michael Moore and Rosie O'Donnell.
"An American Carol" is hilarious, and sadly, true on a lot of levels. The narrator of the story is a grandfather (Leslie Nielsen) telling his grandkids a Dickens style story about the 4th of July. The story he tells centers around an overweight, slobby documentary film maker named Michael Malone (played by Kevin Farley, Chris Farley's younger brother). Malone makes films that blame America for all the worlds problems, and has set out on a quest to abolish the 4th of July. In order to help Malone see the error of his ways, he is visited by 3 spirits to teach him about how great America is.
The cast includes Kelsey Grammer as General Patton, Jon Voight as George Washington, and Dennis Hopper as a judge. Additionally, country music star Trace Adkins plays the Angel of Death. Grammer is great in the role of General Patton, and I was glad that he was the "main" spirit visiting Malone.
There is one particularly funny scene where Bill O'Reilly is interviewing Michael Malone and Rosie O'Connell. Very much like his real show. It's funny stuff, and definitely worth watching.
I gave this movie 4 stars because I laughed my behind off, and because of the career risk these guys took in making this movie. We need to support things like this so we get more pro America movies, rather than the endless line of hate America movies coming out of Hollywood.
