I keep trying to imagine this movie being made today. It's just an objectively bad movie. Absolutely no redeeming qualities. The problem isn't just limitations of the time it was made. It goes much further than that. The story itself made little sense, with nonsensical subplots and characters that served no real purpose. It blows my mind how many grown adults must have been involved in making this film and seemingly none of them objected to making it, let alone releasing it.
Overall, I would not recommend Rudolph's Shiny New Year to anyone. There are far better holiday films out there that are worth your time and attention. This one is a definite skip.
