Positives:
Solid children's Christmas movie. Broadway-style show numbers. World was built SO well! Best I've seen a "Christmas town" look. Performances are great. Negatives:
Music is pretty forgettable. Not bad but not something that staysPositives:

Music is pretty forgettable. Not bad but not something that stays with you. The main character wasn't introduced until 31 min mark. Slow to start. Long to end.

Personal thoughts: Black cast and WHO CARES? Race had nothing to do with any character's journey. But a black cast performing mostly(not a music expert) hiphop and soul numbers? The movie felt like it was stereotyping music to a specific race and therefore stereotyping the audience... I felt pretty unsettled.

I enjoyed this movie but it is not a holiday classic.… Expand

It's a musical, with some decent CGI.
But what it does well in the CGI, it lacks in actual acting skills. The children, I have the feeling it's their first time they ever acted, and for the adults.. well.. I guess it's never too late toIt's a musical, with some decent CGI.

The plot is as boring as you can expect it - man is inventor, inventions get stolen, man goes after thief. During the entire movie, every time a bit of the story progresses, it instantly comes to a halt, as yet another song is sang, and you forget what you were watching.

An average Netflix movie, but not one which I'll ever watch again.… Expand
