I love this movie a lot because it is really cool and funny. This movie is all about Arthur who starts off in the mail room answering emails and letters to Santa. He is Santa's youngest son and believes in Santa so much that he wants to be him. He believes that the old tradition of Santa should live on and that they don't need to use such high-tech stuff to get the job done. Some of the main characters in the movie are Arthur, Steve, Grandsanta and Santa. My favorite character in the movie is Arthur. Arthur is my favorite character because he is really funny and he helps out with Christmas. When a present doesn't get delivered he will do anything to try and get that present to the child who wanted it. He goes on the old sleigh to take the present to the child. My favorite part in the movie is when Santa puts his head on a toy in one of the houses where he was delivering presents. Everyone said don't touch that toy but he accidentally did. Then it starts to play music and they all have to hide so no one will see them. It is pretty funny. I recommend this movie for ages 4 and up because there is one part in the movie where a man pulls out a gun to try and get Arthur and the sleigh to go away. That could be a little scary to younger kids. Credit: Anthony Aranda, age 9, KIDS FIRST! Film Critic This movie is about Santa Claus's crazy family and Santa's youngest son Arthur. Arthur has an older brother named Steve, played by Hugh Laurie, who you might know as the TV doctor, House. In the story, it's Christmas Eve and the Claus family is all working together to deliver the presents to millions and millions of kids all over the world. Steve has computerized Santa's Christmas process so that it is way easier. During the process, one little girl in England accidentally gets missed. Oh no! She's not going to get her bicycle from Santa that Arthur promised her. Steve decides that it's just too late and there is no way to fix the problem. Santa agrees and goes to bed. But Arthur believes he can get it to her before morning and that he must! That's the mission of the story. A great adventure with Grand Santa, a wrapping elf and Arthur to get the present to Gwen. My favorite character in the story is the wrapping elf. She can wrap anything with just three pieces of sticky tape. She's got a positive attitude and won't give up, just like Arthur. This is a fun Christmas movie for the whole family. My parents really laughed and my teenage sister loves it too. I think there's lots of funny stuff for little kids and it's not scary. And no one will get bored with the story because there's so much action and it's a brand new Christmas story. I give Arthur Christmas five out of five stars. Makai Weber Colvin, age 10, KIDS FIRST!

Arthur Christmas reveals the incredible, never-before seen answer to every child's question: 'So how does Santa deliver all those presents in one night?' The answer: Santa's exhilarating, ultra-high-tech operation hidden beneath the North Pole. But at the center of the film is a story about a family in a state of comic dysfunction and an unlikely hero, Arthur, with an urgent mission that must be completed before Christmas morning dawns.
