Steal the Naughty List

This movie is a blast! It's imaginative, full of heart, and packed with jokes that will be sure to keep you and your family laughing all the way. Our kids LOVED it! They laughed at the homeschool jokes and silly parts and we caught all the 80's/90's pop culture references. We were all completely locked in especially when we got to the story of Saint Nicholas. It left us with with sore stomach muscles and the heartwarming feel that you want to experience from a Christmas movie. The characters are easy to connect with and our kids have been quoting the movie non-stop. It's a joy to see a hilarious and handmade Christmas movie that feels fresh and nostalgic all at the same time! It is a must watch for the whole family this holiday season!

This film is fantastic and will be a film my family and I will watch every year. The message is great and the film is truly hilarious and moving. I love the animation and the story of how it was made. This really is a unique masterpiece, one of a kind! I was in tears laughing at the nonstop jokes with impeccable comedic timing. The voice acting was phenomenal and I must say I personally love the fact that the guy from Hotel Transylvania is in this. I also was in tears from learning the true story of St. Nicholas. I was deeply moved and don't want to give it away but it is worth the watch whether you are a youngster or an oldster. I am so happy to see films like this come to life, we need more!

A story of Santa done right. The tone was a bit mature and some smaller kids won't be as entertained. The stop motion was wonderful, especially given the tiny budget. The landscaping could have used a little work, but the characters and textures were detailed nicely. The sporting events at the festival were very cute, the curling competition was particularly fun. The animation wasn't jerky and the movements were fluid and smooth.

There were definitely deeper tones that will go over children's heads, but it's simple enough for them to ask questions about, should they choose. And parents shouldn't have trouble with the answers. Nothing like sex or the current issues that have unfortunately become more prevalent in recent years. More mental health issues and why someone might be acting a certain way.

It was a humorous story of setting out on a mission for the wrong reasons and finally discovering the light, seeing the right reasons, and doing what's necessary to correct it.

This movie is so refreshing to see the old-school charm of stop-motion amongst the CG world of movies. It was hilarious, like, nearly non-stop! My kids love it but also it is something adults can enjoy as well because there are a ton of old movie/commercial/90s kids references that were over their heads but still clean and safe. The writing and story are just so good, too. Loved the St. Nicolas part and how the arctic characters follow his story with theirs. They all struggles like we all do so most can find someone or all to relate to. They learn some powerful lessons and it has a surprising but happy ending. Super quotable and will for sure be washed more this Christmas at our house and for each year to come! Completely recommend.

You know those movies that both parents and kids can enjoy? The ones you don't mind watching on repeat because your kids love it? This is one of those movies. It's clever, witty, and has enough jokes that you have to see it several times to catch them all.

Also, with so many things relying on special effects and CGI, this 80's kid really appreciates this movie's stop motion animation. Brought back memories of the California Raisins, Rudolph, and the Claymation Christmas special.

Check it out for a fresh, fun evening for the whole family. It is sure to become a classic that will be added to your family's holiday rotation each Christmas.
