Product Description

Amazon.co.uk Review
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 storyline 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 vs. 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

Synopsis
A full-length animated musical featuring the world's most popular Christmas character. Includes soundtrack from Al Kasha and Michael Lloyd plus a performance of Paul and Linda McCartney's 'A Wonderful Christmas Time'.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Christmas Movie for 6-year old, 20 Dec 2004
By A Customer
My son and I love watching this film. In the German version, Nina Hagen sings and voices Stormella--for moms this is the best part of the movie! For children who feel "different" or "special" (Zoe's word), and who doesn't, this video is inspirational. After winning the race, Rudolph is disqualified for having a red nose--this is what upsets a six-year-old more than the terrorist personality of Stormella--, Rudolph ends up lead reindeer. Rudolph and Zoe both exercise courage in confronting sorceress Stormella, and Rudolph's noble wish is that Stormella be nice--qualities required of Santa's reindeer. Stormella's storm enables Rudolph to prove that his defect is in fact a valuable asset. It is hard to resist singing along with the various songs.

1.0 out of 5 stars TOO SCARY FOR VERY SMALL CHILDREN, 5 Dec 2003
By V. Malcolm "crazy mum" (uk) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I watched this with my 3 year old son this evening and now he cannot sleep. He is frightened of the growling wolves and of the witch.

This is definitely not a film for young children as it has really scared my son. I am very dissapointed in what I thought was going to be a nice Christmas film. It was full of love songs between two of the reindeer which he was not at all interested in and also contained scenes which were actually pretty scary.

Let me reiterate this film is definitely not a good one for young children and contains scary images. We will not be watching this film again.

Whatever. This film is no way scary, even for a young child. Neither is it only for up to seven year olds - I am nearly thirteen and fairly normal, and this is one of my favourite... Read more
