Arthur Christmas movie review


 * "I can't really think of a person who wouldn't like it, unless you just flat out hate Christmas. In which case, the Muppets did make a movie about you, about twenty years ago, so humbug to you."
 * -Jeremy

Arthur Christmas was a surprising movie for Jeremy. He initially thought it would be an inferior animation that tried to live up to something of Pixar's. However, he enjoyed the direction of the film, gave it an Awesometacular rating, and put it on his top ten list from 2011.

The story revolves around Arthur, one of the kids of Santa, who must go and deliver a present to one child who was missed.

What Jeremy liked

 * Santa's portrayal reminded Jeremy of horrible bosses he's had (take all of the glory but none of the blame).
 * Addresses that Christmas isn't like what it used to be (commercialism and sales, not family and the spirit of Christmas) to the most hilarious point.
 * Dialogue was hilarious.
 * Humorous background elements.
 * Fun to watch Arthur's quest.
 * Arthur's grandfather was great and what Jeremy would want Santa Claus to be like.
 * The last ten minutes are about as intense as the last ten minutes of Crimson Tide.
