Ebenezer: The Traveler

"Ebenezer The Traveler" is a unique film. The main character, Ebenezer pairs perfectly with everyone he encounters in his travels. This film is interesting, funny, uplifting and of course entertaining. It's a great addition to your Holiday favorites. There is much detail in the costumes and scenery. The locations are realistic and well chosen. The use of song was just the right touch and blended seamlessly into the story line. People of all ages will enjoy this lovely film. It should be a go to, especially for the Holidays. Ebenezer The Traveler is truly an example of a group project. It is obvious that much love, time and expertise went into making words on paper a reality. I highly recommend viewing/owning this film.

This film somehow keeps winning at film festivals. The cast even attends in costume with a red carpet. Since there was such pomp and circumstance surrounding the show, I streamed it and was terribly disappointed. First of all, the low quality wigs were very distracting, purgatory is the United States?, Ebenezer only died 7 years prior but his clothing is so out of date, they killed off a beloved child who we were all routing for to live, and then the storyline went nowhere and never wrapped up the plot regarding the main characters! Did Ebenezer ever remember his sister, Fan? What happened after they completed their task? We'll never know, and by the end of the movie, you no longer really care, but are just happy that it is over!

It wasn't exactly what I expected, but it was cute. The story was clever and I really enjoyed some of the new characters, especially Fan, who I think is really the star of the show. What she does to Scrooge's tea is tame compared to what I would have done, but I guess it is a family friendly film. Lol

Some parts really tugged at my heart strings, and some parts ticked me off, and some others I just laughed. And a couple I almost swooned. The guy from Sons of Anarchy whoever he is... oh my. Show me more. Lol

Anyway, this, a glass of wine, and my spot on the couch made for a pretty good after Christmas evening.

Ebenezer the Traveler was so bad that, in all my years of using this site, this is the first time I've ever taken the time to write a review. It was so unwatchable that I thought to myself "I NEED to save others from experiencing this abomination."This film is essentially the exact opposite of Dickens. Everything you've ever loved about the original Christmas Carol (or even any of the countless re-imaginings) is not only lacking from this thin attempt at a sequel, but the legacy of the predecessor(s) would be tarnished by simply having this story considered to be in the same universe. The movie looks like it was created by a middle school theater class and --if that's the case-- everyone who participated deserves to be held back. The dialogue is painful, the acting is awkward, the accents are laughable, the plot is... well, you get the point. There's honestly just nothing redeemable about this movie whatsoever. It tells you everything you need to know that the only positive reviews are coming from people who made the movie. No one else has anything good to say for a reason.

But don't take my word on it: Please please please watch the trailer before wasting 100 minutes of your life or a single penny on enduring this mess.

I'm not saying it's terrible for a zero budget movie but its not great - the flashback to some urchin on Christmas day stood on a tarmacked road/pavement and the pristine historic Yaphank sets gives some idea to the quality of the movie

The script is pretty terrible and the hammy actors.make it even worse.

With a modicum of digging you can quickly find the connection between the movie and the glowing reviews

Save yourself the effort and give this one a miss unless you're desperate for some background noise.

Just saying this to make up the extra characters needed so that I can submit a review.
