    While this isn't a terrible movie by any means, it has none of the wonderfully constructed brilliance of the Christmas special. It's like they decided to dumb things down a bit, feeling like a less mature work of art would be a bad thing or something.

    This bothers me a bit, bu... read moret not enough to keep me from enjoying myself. I think I just had too high of expectations, but then again, it's kind of hard not to.

    Charlie Brown! Who doesn't love Charlie? Growing up with the Peanuts Gang was a part of life back then. I say they need to bring them back!

    It was a very enjoyable animated short movie. It had colorful animation, great music, funny moments, memorable characters and a great storyline. I've seen this movie when I was 8 years old. I highly recommend this short movie to kids and adults alike.
