Ratings and reviews

This move has become a modern Christmas classic in my family. It's a refreshing take on an often tired genre of films. The humor is a little off-color at times, especially for younger children, but our kindergartener enjoys it immensely -- even though some references are over her head. However, this same humor is what keeps the adults as engaged as the children. This movie is done by the studio that created "Wallace and Gromit" and "Shaun the Sheep," so if you enjoy that style of British humor you will most likely enjoy this movie.

The idea is cute, animations are smooth enough. Overall the performances and the way it plays out are rather disappointing. A decent kids movie, but other then that there's no audience I would recommend this for.

I had no 'good' expectations for this, but its actually QUITE clever and a generally 'fun' watch.. Idk though i spend alot of time alone so please dont hold it against me ;) xoj Jeff 'Lovits'
