Not bad, but not the holiday fun of years past. The movie was cute and not exceptional in 3D. The story goes on about the Christmas clan and their heritage and how times change, but the values shouldn't. It was well laid out and kids can enjoy it while parents are not turned off. The movie comes during a lull in the season, and was unable to hit a high note with myself and many other viewers. The typical response to the film was "Cute." If that is what you want, then go enjoy.
The one liners from Grandpa/Senior Santa were hilarious as well as a few others from the animated cast. Some of us were on the floor laughing, which made for a great show. But aside from some witty comments, the remainder of the script was left for the kids.
Yes it is appropriate for all ages. Adults will adore the older Santa and the resourcefulness and mind-slip moments. Others will enjoy the clean animation. A good story about family and Christmas. Arthur Christmas pulls a weak 4 out of 5 Cyclones.
