I had to give The Day Before Christmas 10 stars! It's a family movie and the storyline is full of twists and turns of "can any more mishaps happen?" Funny, heartwarming, full of mishaps and a special magical Christmas magic at the end of the movie. The entire cast, including the young children are phenomenal actors, too. They all brought the story to life ... from the script (that was extremely well written) to the locations filmed to the director's skill. Our family has already viewed The Day Before Christmas 3 times! Will be adding this title to our yearly tradition watching our favorite Christmas movies!
