Good Points

This is a truly unique movie. TNBC has some very good songs that everyone will enjoy and is especially great for the fall season when you're just beginning to get into the Christmas spirit.


Bad Points

In some parts the animation is kinda botched. There is also a part when a female character's sexy-looking leg is being tickled. This might be a little awkward for children.


General Comments

In Halloweentown, everyone loves Halloween. But Jack Skellington, who practically personifies Halloween, is very depressed because he is surrounded by nothing but Halloween. When he sleepwalks out of Halloweentown and wanders into Christmastown, he is so happy that he breaks out into a song proclaiming his newfound liking for what he has found. When he returns to Halloweentown, he tries to replicate Christmas despite the warnings of Sally, the girl-doll that secretly but obviously loves him. This movie is a "Grinch in reverse," as Tim Burton describes it. Watch it to find out why.
