Overview

Each Christmas, Santa and his vast army of highly trained elves produce gifts and distribute them around the world in one night. However, when one of 600 million children to receive a gift from Santa on Christmas Eve is missed, it is deemed ‘acceptable’ to all but one—Arthur. Arthur Claus is Santa’s misfit son who executes an unauthorised rookie mission to get the last present half way around the globe before dawn on Christmas morning.

Viewing Notes

Thought I had seen this but apparently not!

Not sure what my deal is but I have a hard time connecting to Aardman features. I always want to see them but when I do I’m not into it. They so well crafted and often clever but do so little for me. This is a great example of me just not caring about this story, another “saving christmas” story.
