Eloise at Christmastime

Well, my my, isn't this little rascal Eloise a doggone delight? This is a charming little TV movie that fully utilizes the tropes of kid movies, rom-coms and Christmas stories with enough sweetness and fun to more than forgive the corny predictability. Favorite part (and there were lots of good ones): the old British couple watching Santa Claus Conquers the Martians and remarking, "What a marvelous rendition, don't you think?"

And even better if you are a Julie Andrews fan! Or just a hopeless romantic! This was introduced to me by my niece and I am so glad to have it as a Christmas tradition now! It is such a boost during my the Holidays! My favorite to watch while wrapping gifts! Eloise is an inspiration for trying to make Christmas a magical holiday for all! Believing when challenges present themselves and still rooting for those around her. That they make you provide sooooo many characters just to review this movie is insane. I still have 87 to go! I really like this movie! I, as a Julie Andrews/Edwards fan, was very surprised I didn't know about it earlier! If you haven't read her books?! I reallly recommend "The last of the really great Whangdoodles"!!! It is one of my all time favorite books! After so many characters together, I feel we know each other and truly wish you the best in life!!!!!

The person who previously reviewed this movie is a bitter, joyless, miserable human being, apparently. Eloise is not an obnoxious little brat or whatever they called her- she's a great character. This is a delightful movie that can be enjoyed by children and adults alike! It's a wonderful story that takes place in New York City, the Plaza hotel, actually, at Christmastime. There are many things going on at the Plaza, including a wedding, which Eloise is determined to stop. Eloise friends and other employees and residents of the Plaza are all wonderful characters. Julie Andrew's role, though not as acclaimed as other roles she's played, is truly entertaining. I would absolutely recommend this movie to anyone.

This movie was really a nice treat! Our whole family enjoyed it. It was done just as zany as the books are. The little gal that plays Eloise is very believable. And of course, Julie Andrews is superb as usual. Singing, dancing, comedy and suspense make this an all around hit for everyone.

This movie is a very cute movie, I've watched it every holiday since it came out. My cousins and I love sitting around watching and enjoying how cute the movie is. I think that Eloise is a very cute character, and I don't think she's a "horrible role model" for children, she's smart, outgoing, funny, and sees what others do not. I think she doesn't always follow the rules, but life's rules are meant to be broken. I am sure that tons of little children will enjoy watching this cute holiday movie.

The movie is all about this young girl who is trying to get her friend to marry his true love, the daughter of the hotel owner. The movie shows the sneaky Eloise preparing for the holiday and trying to help the people in the hotel that she cares about. It's a very cute movie that always puts a smile on my face. I think it's pretty funny and it is not extremely corny.
