One of my favorite movies as a child, thank god for my mother's Christian ways lol

I enjoy these old animated ones. I hadn't seen a lot of this one as a kid but worth a watch.

One Of Greatest Animated Christmas Movies I Had Ever Seen Growing Up And Still This Movie Does Not Disappoint The Songs Are Great And The Voice Acting Was Great This Is Just A Classic

People seem to go a little too hard on this one in my opinion, sure it is fairly dark and depressing, but that ultimately makes it all the more enjoyable and makes it's climax all the more appealing

Due to poor animation, but good music, this short movie does deserve a *3 & 1/2* star review!

A nice and sweet film that is a good addition of the Rankin/Bass Filmography

It's a little scary for younger children (a house burns down with people inside), but for older kids it sends a powerful message about friendships and forgiveness. The animation wasn't the best, and neither was the music; I found more enjoyment laughing at the characters then actually watching the movie.

animation has not aged well, but has a few memorable moments and a good ending

Probably the most talented voice cast of any of the Christmas specials with an amazing story that tells all what the true spirit of Christmas is. Amazing! This is so well done with so many talents. Paul Frees was was one of the best voices and he did voices in almost every Christmas Special. He also was the voice of Boris in Rocky & Bullwinkle. Greer Garson is an all time talent with the great Jose Ferrer. The Viena Boys Choir tops it off.

The Little Drummer Boy song is what I like about this classic.

Underrated Christmas classic that remains a forgotten gem of the Rankin & Bass's specials. The animation is beautiful and atmospheric, teleporting you to the time of the Birth of Jesus, with a nice message of finding hope in humanity again. Plus, at just under 30 minutes, doesn't over stay its welcome. Great addition to any Christmas viewing rotation.

It is a must have addition to any Christmas movie collection and to the Little Drummer Boy
