Awesome flick for the family especially young children

Rating: 10/10 (14 November 2004)

A truly wonderful Christmas movie. Viewing this each year will surely become a tradition. My three year old daughter was on the edge of her seat. The style of the film is gorgeous and some of the camera perspectives were brilliant. (the encyclopedia in particular) A very good score and soundtrack with one exception which I expound upon below.
My only complaint.......what bonehead producer thought it would be "cool and hit that other demographic" to animate Steven Tyler and have him sing some stupid trite rock n roll version Christmas song. That was the only gay part of the whole thing, but not a deal killer. Why date an otherwise timeless picture with something like that?
