Charlie Brown's Christmas Tales

This was pretty bad. There was no overall story like in the original special. It was basically animated vignettes from the daily comic strip. It had no structure really, no theme, just little shorts strung together to make a "movie". And I won't even go into how inferior the voicing was compared to the original.

It isn't terrible...it is just a bad one to show after the original. It is cute and would probably entertain the kids, but it really isn't for the whole family like the first one was. (do I seem a little biased toward the original? Yes?) Go ahead and watch this one, but don't expect the charm of the original.

This was a pretty good special. The Peanuts gang feels natural and at home in this special. I know this animated special was largely inspired by original Peanuts comic strips written by Charles M. Schulz not just because I read so, but because you can just see the original strips coming to life as the music and characters be themselves. Cute but clever.

I think that while many might know about this special, it may be a hidden gem for later generations or even earlier generations who remained negligent of the Peanuts animated specials since the early 1970s.

It's truly worth a watch especially when watching the original 1965 Christmas special!

Now I am a long time of the Peanut Gang because they are part of my childhood it's just never can't go wrong with Snoopy, Charlie Brown and all of your favorite Peanut Characters

While this might not be as strong as the classic A Charlie Brown Christmas but it has a appeal to it.

This Christmas special features the Peanut Gang in five different stories all in one which you have to watch to understand

But each one is center around Christmas some can be foolish others can be enjoyable

The Animation is pretty good for the Peanuts can always be counted on for smooth animation

The voice acting is decent because it's not easy to consider it one of the gang best works

However if you're a Peanuts fan you'll enjoy the film because it still has what made them great to begin with.

It will also be good for the whole family to watch

I give Charlie Brown's Christmas Tales an 8 out of 10

The voices are spot on - so much like the original cast of the 60s and 70s Peanuts shorts. What's not to love?!

This one is a series of short cartoons that feature a particular character per short instead of one long story like other Peanuts films we are all too familiar with.

The film is very much in the spirit of the originals!! This is definitely worth watching - I enjoyed it very much.

9/10.

It's 18 minutes. It's a series of Christmas theme vignettes without a continuous story. It's disjointed but it's still watchable. In the end, this is like a TV version of the newspaper comic strips. It has its charms but it doesn't last like the classic Christmas special. The most notable things are the side characters. Linus meets a mysterious girl who calls herself Jezebel and then proceeds to keep changing her name. I think that character has lots of potential. On the other hand, Sally has a fight with an angry kid over a small Christmas tree. The kid is off-putting and doesn't really fit the Peanuts style. It also pales in comparison with the iconic Charlie Brown tree. This is a functional Christmas special but it's nowhere near the classic.
