This one does nothing to reveal himself other than things never go his way. In the great Christmas epics, this character would be much more defined and not so needy (the Tiny Tim influence). Do they get to experience the joys and wonders their visitors do? Anyway, the trip is delightful, the special effects are awesome, and the story is touching, thought I never knew why that little boy was so depressed. They appear to be cut from some sort of proletarian mode, doing their things to complete the task. I know we aren't supposed to look at things that way, but do we have a right to wonder what the lives of these masses is like. It reminded me of May Day in the old Soviet Union. It appears that socialism is working well. Still, the visual aspects are remarkable. I never felt that anyone was ever in any real danger, that this was all part of the gig. There are a lot of near misses instead of a true sense of humanity. For me, I never got that sense of vulnerability among the characters. It is an interesting story with a real holiday message. Reviewed by Hitchcoc 7 / 10 Visually Engaging But. All in all, a nice Christmas film that is well worth watching chiefly for the visuals. And while the visuals were outstanding, the story while respectfully true to the book(while adding characters and changing existing ones) just isn't compelling enough, and is made up of disconnected,unexplained and sometimes rushed scenes in terms of story telling. However, the film does take a while to get going, and the script is rather simplistic.
He voices five or six characters here, and he was great as always. Another plus was the voice cast, Tom Hanks stands out obviously.
The music is very good, with sparkling motifs and haunting secondary themes. The character animation was just as impressive. They were phenomenal, colourful and looked as though the animators had gone to extreme lengths to make it neat. Back to the film, one thing that was a definite plus was the visuals. Actually it was one of my favourites, a timeless Christmas story about the power of belief, faith and hope. The film respects the book of the same name, which I think is a great one. It is nice to watch around Christmas time. Reviewed by TheLittleSongbird 7 / 10 Phenomenal visuals, shame about the story.ĭon't get me wrong, I liked this movie very much.
