Upon forgetting the present of a young girl in England, Santa Claus, struggles against giving her hers present within two hours, as each Christmas, he has to deliver the presents of all children around the world in just one day, the thing that challenges him, but through the high technology he uses, he manages to achieve his mission.
With a clever script that successfully updates many Christmas myths and dialogue that crackles with sophisticated wit, this movie offers the kind of pre-holiday experience that parents and children alike will appreciate.
Arthur Christmas makes a welcome addition to the holiday movie line-up, because it's a movie that one can watch repeatedly without it becoming as stale as last year's fruitcake.
