The people who reviewed 3 below didn't like it because it was a Catholic /Christian movie and one said it was not enjoyable for adults but it is a kid movie so just ignore them

It amazes me the legths some people will go to bash or destroy a religious film or anything religious. This is accurately based on Christian faith and the birth of Jesus. Like it or not, it happened and there is nothing you can do to make it not so. The movie is well done and entertaining. It does have a few scary/dark moments with the dogs. However, there is nothing here that compares to the violence found on tv, most movies, video games and in songs kids listen to today. At least this ulimately has a positive message and gets the story of Jesus to a few more eyes and ears. Maybe that's why some don't like it. Worth watching!

I tried to be very optimistic to enjoy this movie but was not able continue after 20mins. am not saying like i hate this movie it just lacks the concept of animation films. nothing fun just a cartoon replica of bible story.

The biggest upside to this surprisingly strong representation of the Christ's birth is found in its failures. It falls short in similar ways as other kid's movies (corny moralism, on-the-nose thematics, generic humor, Tarzan-syndrome soundtrack), but none of that really overwhelms. Where it succeeds, however, is as a faith-based film. Instead of being banal & frustratingly pandering like so many Christian films, its theology & its heart hold up nicely, along with its simple story.
