Title: Scary for Young Kids
Product review: We bought the video and book thinking that it would be a fun Christmas tradition to start. Boy were we wrong...the train ride is scary, the hobo has a very creepy laugh, comes across as more of a criminal than a Christmas spirit. The North Pole reminded me of my travels in East Germany and many of the other Stalinist Soviet Union places I have been. I almost gave it two stars because my boys loved the hot chocolate scene, best part of the movie, and a few other small parts; but I decided against because it was just a little too creepy overall. Also, would it have hurt the producers to have the elves smile on a few occasions?
