Underrated and a great lark especially if you were in New York in the 80s or 90s or wished you were.


I love this movie!

Arthur Christmas

Very British, animated (from the folks who made "Wallace and Gromit" and "Chicken Run" though it's not stop-motion), and absolutely lovely. Funny and sweet. Check it out in advance if you have young kids who might be thrown by the premise that Santa is a position held by Claus family fathers and sons through the ages. it's a hilarious look at how Santa gets all those gifts delivered in just one night, and what it really means to be Santa Claus!


I enjoyed this movie! Thanks!

I do not find the family stone to be a feel good movie fwiw.

Should have added, not for the Hallmark movie crowd. Def bittersweet.
