Ben Meyers’ rating: 3.5|5.0

Prancer is sweet, but weak without much thought
put into its storyline. While Sam Elliott superbly casts as the western hero,
he is a little too rough as supporting character for Rebecca Harrell Tickell in this movie. There is one
scene in the film where Sam Elliott, while reading a newspaper, becomes
distracted by outdoor sounds that works well; but he does not convey enough
emotion to carry the majority of the scenes for this particular story well.
Storyline
Young
Jessica Riggs (Rebecca Harrell Tickell) nurses a reindeer back to health. She believes
she is caring for Prancer, a Santa Claus sleigh reindeer.
