Get ready to hear this, but I actually used to like it when I was little, but for some reason I grew out of it.
I can't believe I have to live with this abomination. What was the point of making this movie if there was already a Rudolph special in existence? Were the producers afraid everybody would forget about the Rankin-Bass special? I mean, go on to Amazon, type in "Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer", and you'll see how much we've forgotten about it.
The animation is beyond terrible, you may as well be letting whatever kids you're babysitting (if that scenario is the case) watch some college graduate's show-reel.
The voices in this movie are annoying. I'm very much offended that Eric Idle (who came from the UK) would be using a Brooklyn accent in this movie. I hope he knows how awful this movie is. The fairies that tell the story are utterly annoying.
On top of that, the movie has pretty much no silent moment. There isn't one scene in the movie that doesn't have any noise blaring through the speakers. When you put on this movie for any children, your basically just banging pots and pans and dancing like an idiot in front of them for an hour and a half.
The songs in this movie are plain terrible, the inclusion of Paul McCartney's "A Wonderful Christmastime" is overly offencive to me. And what sense does it make when Rudolph's singing voice sounds like Justin Bieber on sulphur hexafluoride while his speaking voice sounds like Ash Ketchum?
Pardon me if I sound like a sadist, but there are almost no useful scare tactics in the movie! That just makes it whimsical pandering! When a kid cartoon has frightening images, it teaches children that the world is a dark and cruel place. Even the villain is not scary enough.
What also annoys me is that rather than the villain, Stormella, simply falling to her death and hip hip hooray, cue end credits, Rudolph and the others just SAVE Stormella from plummeting to her doom even though Rudolph sent her to her near death in the first place! What kind of a lesson is that to teach your children? Just rescue a bad guy from their near death even if they attacked you to begin with? Talk about insulting your child's intelligence!
But as if that's not bad enough, Rudolph just wishes for Stormella to be nice, and lo and behold, she becomes a good sport. OK, that's just ASKING for your kids to get critically injured or murdered! That's just BEYOND disrespectful to a kid's intelligence!
It's beyond believable this was shown in cinemas before it was tossed into the Safeway bargain bins (if you know what I mean). I wouldn't be surprised if it was a box office bomb, which certainly doesn't matter since this movie probably didn't cost too much to make.
All I can say now is that the rest of the family I live with (even my 19 and 18 year old brothers) think this is such a good movie, but this makes Troll 2 seem like The Shawshank Redemption (never seen either films, but you can figure out what I mean). Even A Troll in Central Park is better than this!
