Summary: Rather Bizarre
Review: It is very strange to hear what sound like the original voices in this CGI presentation. We watched with a group of older Rudolph fans (so we had to imagine what it would be like if we had not seen the original). Someone commented at one point that they thought we had drifted into a 60s psychedelic trip of some kind. I agree. It is a strange movie to say the least. I can't say that we hated it, but we definitely didn't like it. It's sort of like an accident where you want to turn away but just can't. We don't recommend it.

Summary: Rudolph is back!!!
Review: The animation in this movie is great! The first Rudolph was better (the classic one), but this one is very good too. This movie is funny and great for young children.

Summary: this is a good movie
Review: I love this movie,it cheered me right up after the awful week I had.My younger brother and sister liked it to.I was pretty nervous that this movie wasn't going to be good,but I realy enjoyed it, I've always loved the 1964 classic Rudolph the Red Nose Reindeer.At some points the animation makes it look like a video game,and some of the character designs look weird.I loved the songs they sang though.My little sister Sarah hates Hermey she calls him H instead.My oldest sister Randy thinks that Hermey is cute though.Me and my oldest sister noticed something about Hermey,his ears aren't pointy so that means he's not an elf,so how come everybody calls him an elf,I wonder if anybody ells has ever noticed that before,I think he was a kid that ranaway from home. I loved the Toy Taker,and Queen Camilla,they were my favorite characters.Queen Camilla reminded me of my mom,because she's a parametic,and I loved her song to.I thought the Toy Taker was cool I loved the song he sang,I felt realy sorry for him though poor guy:(.He deserves to ruin christmas,just like how Washu( Tenshi Muyo)deserves to destroy the univurse.I think it would be realy cute if the Toy Taker decided to get a job to babysit little kids I think that would be realy sweet of him. Favorite characters: 1.The Toy Taker
2.Queen Camilla
3.Hermey Least favorite characters: 1.Rudolph
2.Yukon Cornelios
3.Bumble Favorite songs: 1.The Toy Taker
2.Beautiful just like me
3.The Island of Misfit Toys Least favorite songs: 1.Beyond the stars
2.Mr.Cuddles
3.Best christmas ever This is a great movie I don't see why everybody hates it so much.Its was way better than the last Rudolph in 1998 that one was just horrible,this one was great it had all the old characters back Hermey,Clarice,Yukon Cornelious,the Bumle,etc.So stop wyning and enjoy its own merits.I just love this movie I keep watching it nonstop.^-^

Summary: Stop comparing & enjoy on it's own merits
Review: Other reviewers keep commenting on how this film doesn't measure up to the original. Well, I never saw the original nor care to because I like this one and so do my kids. We really love Queen Camilla's song "Beautiful" and wish it was on the CD, instead we keep rewinding and playing it! This is a fun story with cute characters -- your kids age 2 - 6 will love it!

Summary: haven't seen it yet but willing to give it a try
Review: I've always loved the 1964 classic last year when the sequal came out I wanted to buy it or rent it but I was affraid of being made fun of though.This year I bought a VHS and DVD of the orignal Rudolph so I dicided to rent the sequal but I couldn,t find it at all I was realy unhappy that day so then I asked for it for christmas but I still didn't get it so now I dicided to save my money up for it and order it off the internet. The reason why I gave it 5 stars because I know it will be good when I get it.

Summary: Save your money for the original
Review: On the surface, I rather like the idea of a new computer animated feature using characters from a classic stop-motion picture. The two art forms have quite a bit in common and it seems like a natural marriage. However, if the execution is as bad as it is in this DVD, I'd rather the potential be left unexplored. The animation in this movie is terrible. Maybe it would have been impressive ten years ago, but since then we've been spoiled by the likes of "Toy Story," "Shrek" and "Monsters, Inc." This movie can't possibly measure up. The motions are jerky, the backgrounds don't blend, any character with hair or loose fur looks terrible... if you've got the "Monsters Inc." or "Shrek" DVDs, you've seen the test animation they did on those two far superior films. This entire movie looks like that kind of animation. And the story is.. okay, it's a kid's movie, but it's a REALLY predictable kid's movie. While I have to confess there were a few clever ideas -- the kite that's afraid of heights, for instance -- the music and story just are nowhere near as good as the original. Granted, that's a high bar to hurdle -- however, if you're going to fall this short, you'd be better off trying something else. Heck, the titular "Island of Misfit Toys" barely plays into the story at all. If this movie had been made in the early 90s, it might have been interesting. For a 2001 release, it just doesn't cut it. Save your money and get the classic Rankin-Bass "Rudolph" instead.

Summary: Fun sequal to the original Rudolph
Review: This cartoon has the same characters from the original story and is a sequal. The animation is computer graphics instead of animated figures - very clean and well done.
My daughter gives this 5 stars, but I give it 4 because the story is not as good as the original. What counts is that kids really enjoy this movie. I will admit the story is alot better than many other Christmas tales on television. A good tape for our Chrismas collection.

Summary: DANGEROUS to kids: has a creepy "nice" kidnapper!
Review: This was a DISTURBING video, to say the least! The Toy Taker (dressed in a dark trenchcoat) steals toys by lying to them and telling them that he will love them -- that their owners/children don't take care of them like he will. He consoles a sad doll by giving her flowers and a handkerchief. She decides to go off with him. This scenario could easily translate to a child snatcher! Later, the Toy Taker turns out to be a rejected teddy bear who returns the toys and everything turns out happy at the end -- thus, justifying the bear's snatching. HOW DO WE TEACH OUR CHILDREN NOT TO GO OFF WITH "NICE" STRANGERS, IF THEY SEE JUNK LIKE THIS? I'm going to contact everyone I can to complain about this creepy video!

Summary: Not bad for kids
Review: I can't say I have fallen in love with this movie, but my 3-year-old twins LOVE it. They also love the music! I will say that I'm very impressed with how much the character voices sound like the original. I'd give it 3.5 stars if they let you go halfs...

Summary: Don't listen to the Naysayers
Review: I actually purchased this video expecting the original as well, however, unlike Melissa, I blame myself for not reading the packaging very carefully. As far as the video is concerned, our family liked it a great deal. Although I am not a huge fan of computer animation, I was pleasantly surprised and my daughter (3 years old) found the characters and story delightful. Obviously reviewers either loved or hated this video, so it is difficult to know how you will respond. To be honest, I can't quite understand all of the negative reviews..........this was a an entertaining holiday film. I would hightly recommend it to any family with young children -- it was a fun film and not meant to be taken so seriously nor as an assult on the value of the original.
