Mickey's Christmas Tales
Parent and Kid Reviews
What's the Story?
MICKEY'S CHRISTMAS TALES is a collection of shorts, each with a running time of around two minutes. They all show Mickey and his friends celebrating the Christmas season and, sometimes, running into a problem or causing some mischief along the way.
Is It Any Good?
A modern animated collection crafted to invoke nostalgia by mimicking the classic style of vintage claymation films. Packing a fast-paced story into a concise two-minute format, each episode of Mickey's Christmas Tales is designed for quick enjoyment. Fans of Mickey, Goofy, and the rest of their lovable crew will appreciate the blend of comic pratfalls and heartwarming themes like friendship, generosity, and helpfulness. Keep in mind, though, the episodes' briefness makes them more suitable for moments when you need a quick entertainment fix than for binge watching.
