Another live-action Dennis the Menace is released. In this one, Dennis enjoys Christmas, but he finds out that his neighbor, Mr. Wilson, is deeply disgusted by it. (What a surprise.)Dennis attempts to get Mr. Wilson into the Christmas, but everything he does is done so badly that I'm starting to think he actually planned it to be bad. Because of him, Mr. Wilson is poisoned, arrested, injured and among other things. I'm not one for physical humor (i.e getting arrested or injured for laughs),and I know it's just a show, but it's just gross and very rude how these "jokes" are executed. Next, in the story, after depressing Dennis, Mr. Wilson is given a "Dicken's twist" by having him be Scrooge and he's to find out that if he ruins Christmas for Dennis, then Dennis will grow up to be very grouchy, like Mr. Wilson. The story is very unoriginal and it dosen't at all do justice for either the "Dennis the Menace" comics or "A Christmas Carol." In my opinion, both Dennis and Mr. Wilson went too far. It's justified that Mr. Wilson needs to lighten up, but Dennis trying to make him a decent Christmas is actually wrong. He should have gotten help by his parents before he did anything to Mr. Wilson.
