THE PLOT:
You better watch out, you better not pout; you better not cry I’m telling you why. Santa Clause is coming to town and after missing a child on the list, it is up to Arthur Christmas as he travels across the world to remember to give the gift that a little girl wanted a bicycle for Christmas. Along the way, Arthur discovers why Santa is an important person to children everywhere and brings back some Christmas joy to many hearts.
THE REVIEW:
This movie was really sweet for the holidays and is a great movie to take the kids to. Ardman Studios are back with a full length movie where they entertain the adults without making it uncomfortable for the children. There are several Christmas puns and there are many jokes that will keep you laughing. The talent was amazing and my child was laughing so hard throughout the entire movie. It is definitely not a waste of time to take the family to and enjoy it with. Often, Christmas movies are often construed as corny and too Chrismas-y. However, what this movie does is brings you into the Christmas mood.
This movie is freaking adorable and definitely one of my new Christmas movies. The message that it sent was really sweet. It was really funny because it is from Ardman and they are notoriously funny. There isn’t a movie of theirs that I haven’t laughed with. All the characters were very lovable and relatable. It is a great movie to take the entire family to and have a great time together.
OVERALL RATING:
You’re not going to want to miss this one this holiday season. It is definitely one of the best Christmas movies in a while and you are going to love every moment with it. This movie made me laugh a lot and the kid was turning blue because she was laughing so hard. No, it wasn’t from choking on sweets. Go see this movie and have yourself a Merry Christmas!
