    BEWARE OF FALSE REVIEWS & REVIEWERS. SOME REVIEWERS HAVE ONLY ONE REVIEW TO THEIR NAME. NOW WHEN ITS A POSITIVE REVIEW THAT TELLS ME THEY WERE INVOLVED WITH THE MOVIE. IF ITS A NEGATIVE REVIEW THEN THEY MIGHT HAVE A GRUDGE AGAINST THE FILM . I HAVE REVIEWED OVER 200 HOLIDAY FILMS. I HAVE NO AGENDA.

    In this film Living with a single father whose military career frequently takes him away on business, Jesse is a lonely little boy who has never learned the true meaning of caring. Miracle In Toyland movie When his father is suddenly called away on Christmas Eve and and he is sent to stay with his cousin, Gabriella, Jesse discovers a magical realm where toys spring to life to help him learn a lesson or two about love and family.

    As delightful as this sounds in reality it is poorly made! This cartoon does everything wrong. From a poorly executed story to a bad song score. The "Toys Coming Alive" is a nice idea but it has been done before and much better.

    The audience for this is children around 5 years old however even they will most likely be bored. There is plenty of other movies you should expose small children too that are much better.

    I quite like the Golden Film animations. There are ones, like Tarzan of the Apes, Hercules, The Jungle King, The Hunchback of Notre Dame and Anastasia that don't work, but most are solid entertainment. Thumbelina, The Little Mermaid, Pinocchio, Three Musketeers and The Night Before Christmas are ones that I am very fond of. Miracle in Toyland is not quite as good as either of these, but ranking Golden Films it is towards the top end. The animation is nicely done, maybe some of the character designs are a little rough but the backgrounds while simple always have something to look at and the colours are shaded nicely. The music is very 80s- and I prefer the classical music choices that most of the Golden Films animation have- but it is also very catchy, so that didn't matter so much to me. The writing is funny and good-natured with some heartfelt moments also, geared perfectly for the target audience while not being too embarrassing for older audiences, who might even consider it a nostalgic throwback. The story is imaginative with an exciting climax, while Jesse is an engaging protagonist, Gabriella is pretty and sympathetic and the toys have very fun personalities. The voice acting is above average and suited to their characters. All in all, delightful. 9/10 Bethany Cox
