Review of Arthur Christmas (2011) by David L — 22 Apr 2016

Arthur Christmas is such a good movie. Its stupidly frenetic pacing and too much action really hurt the movie, but it is still such a great mix of traditional and modern with impressively well developed characters, some sophisticated themes here and there, superb character interactions, a great story, a positively childlike tone to it and many heartwarming moments.

It isn't one of Aardman's best, but it is one of the finest animated films of 2011.
