THE LITTLEST REINDEER * (Theatrical Release USA 2018)

Ben Meyers’ rating: 3.8|5.0 Starsììì

The Littlest Reindeer—charming—works as sweet holiday fare for children. It’s not a child/adult share but will satisfy the younger child audience. The voicing cast completely works and the simple story is easy to follow. Good work for Director Jennifer Westcott.
