Amazon.co.uk Review
Mickey Mouse and his friends enter the realm of computer-generated animation in this five-episode, 68-minute Christmas celebration. The holidays are a time for celebration, but when Mickey Mouse, Donald Duck, and host of other Disney characters become obsessed with holiday preparations, the frenzy of activity leaves everyone feeling stressed, selfish, and full of regret. A skating contest leads best friends Minnie Mouse and Daisy Duck down a path of jealousy and hurt feelings in "Belles on Ice," and "Christmas Impossible" finds Huey, Dewie, and Louie selfishly scheming to get on Santa's "good list" at any expense.
In "Christmas Maximus," Goofy's son Max is mortified by his father's silly antics and, in "Donald's Gift," Donald's craving for peace and quiet threatens to ruin the whole family's holiday fun. "Mickey's Dog-Gone Christmas" finds Mickey so absorbed in planning the perfect Christmas party that he lashes out at Pluto and almost loses a very special friend forever. While the animation style is new, what hasn't changed is Disney's commitment to stories with wholesome values: Mickey and the gang remind viewers that the holiday season is not about selfishness, flashy parties, and expensive gifts, but about selflessness and the celebration of family and friends.--Tami Horiuchi

Format:DVD
I bought this DVD for my little girl as she loves Mickey and friends, It appealed as it is classic family entertainment that delivers some great messages about the importance of family and friends especially at Christmas time.
I haven't been disappointed, my little girl loves the film and she even understands the messages which at 3 years old, I don't think I could have explained it to her and achieved the same result.
I feel the 3D format is just moving with the times as it reflects other recently released Disney films, my little girl can relate to it more - Mickey and his friends are still and
will always be fantastic family entertainment - well worth the money.

Format:DVD
After watching Mickey's Once Upon a Christmas(which I thoroughly enjoyed),I decided to also buy it's sequel(being a lover of all things Christmas and Disney).
It was only when I bought it,I realised it was computer animated...
(This was also the first time the Disney characters were seen in 3D animation).
'Oh here we go'...I thought to myself.
I usually find that when Disney uses computer animation(apart from Pixar,which is obviously brilliant),it takes the charm out,so I really dreaded seeing how awful this was probably going to be.
But...I was pleasantly surprised!
I actually thought that the computer animation added to it's appeal and made Huey, Dewey and Louie look even cuter than usual!
The short 'films' included are:
"Belles on Ice"
"Christmas: Impossible"
"Christmas Maximus"
"Donald's Gift"
"Mickey's Dog-Gone Christmas"
If you are looking for a sweet,family,Christmas 'movie' then I would definitely suggest this as it is just as good,if not better than the first 'Upon A Christmas'.
It really gets you into the festive spirit,and for me Christmas just wouldn't be complete without it.

Our little one (almost 3) just adores this. The content is a variety of Christmas tales featuring all the main Disney characters in turn. For us, CGI enhanced the enjoyment of it. Good old fashioned Christmas stories for young and old, "Belles on Ice" featuring Minnie and Daisy is beautifully done, with stunning animation and 50's style setting on the skating rink. As the saying goes, "You can't stop progress!", and whilst CGI is different it certainly does not detract from one's enjoyment of traditional Disney.
