Movie Reviews of Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer - The Movie

Movie Review: I never thought it was such a bad little movie!
Summary: 5 Stars

I really like this movie! I viewed it over two weeks ago, and I never thought that I'd like, WHAT I thought would be a cheap knock off, of the original. But to my surprise it had it's own original story line. I found myself cheering more for this Rodolph then the stop motion animation one. I felt a more, "go Rudolph! You can do it!" Please do not buy this to compare it with the original movie. This one doesn't have dentist elves, and dudes looking for gold. It has fairies, and a wicked snow witch. However, there are certain commonalities between the original and this movie. First of all, the love between Rudolph and the doe, saving his doe, and the bad guy turning good in the end. I also prefered Santa Claus in this movie, over the original. In this version Santa tells Rudolph that he's a part of Santa's family no matter what. In the 1960's movie version Santa could careless about the little reindeer witht the red-nose, that is until Rudolph proved to be useful to Santa.

Summary of Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer - The Movie

Join the reindeer games with this charming animated retelling of true holiday classic. Star-studded vocal cast includes bob newhart debbie reynolds whoopie goldberg and monty pythons eric idle. Studio: Gaiam Americas Release Date: 10/12/2004 Starring: Voice Of John Goodman Rating: Nr
Competing with the time-tested, 1964 original Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer, with the abominable snowman, the misfit toys, the lovably clunky motion, and Burl Ives as narrator, is no easy task. So this feature-length, animated musical skirts a straight squaring-off of versions. The story line is a bit more complex, with the abominable snowman's antagonist role played by the Whoopi Goldberg-voiced Ice Queen, Stormella, and Rudolph's running buddies depicted as a polar bear (excellently voiced by Bob Newhart) and, not surprisingly, a cutesy doe, Zoey. The animation is first-rate and completely convincing, making this new Rudolph ideal for the discriminating 3- to 7-year-old viewer. Stormella looks for all the world like a hybrid of King Triton and Ursula, the Sea Witch from Disney's The Little Mermaid. As for the story, none of it is either heavyhanded on the good versus evil front for the younger set, or so sappy that it's intolerable for adults. As with so many animated features this decade, the presence of seasoned actors with experience in comedy makes for dialogue that's entertainingly nuanced. Since there are moments of tension and conflict, the comic relief is important and unmistakable, even for younger viewers. The themes are the same as the original, and the ultimate embrace by Santa (done well by John Goodman) of Rudolph's difference still packs a good lesson. --Andrew Bartlett
