Ms. Johnston the star, the musical numbers the dud There's a lot going right for this film - a simple "christmassy" story, the colours, the CGI (liked Don Juan Diego), the set scenes, the cinematography
But the whole movie is spoiled the very naff musical dancing numbers - some that go on forever - was like they gave the composer a few pages of the script and said come up with something people can sing
It wouldn't be so bad if any of the songs were memorable but they are definitely not unlike The Greatest Showman - they were far too shouty, maybe that would work on a stage but not in a film. Look to Annie, Oliver Twist etc for how similar films work with musical sets
The Ms. Johnston character is the standout in the film - entertaining and endearing when ever she was on screen
(As for the Trivia - Buddy 3000 is nothing like Wall-e - has that person even watched that movie?)
