Donkey's Caroling Christmas-tacular

A beautiful Christmas mini special! I love Donkey, he's like the funniest character ever, and this mini is all about him and his love for Christmas! A 9/10 from me!

All he did was run over a child in his Honda Civic 2001 and was like it was a Gemini thing and was sent away for a war crime!!!!!!!! UNEPIC!!!!!! Free Donkey! DEFUND THE POLICE!!!

Donkey, Shrek, and all the characters from Far Far Away. come together to celebrate

the holiday season by singing classic Xmas song in funny twist it way.

I did not like this short at all, it didn't find any of the songs that funny at all, however it did have nice xmas feel to it

and the Animations was really good in this movie and voice was sound fine with moving of animation

None of song really stuck in my head, which is a really good thing,

and I going to give this movie

4 out of 10

Donkey's Caroling Christmas-Tacular (2010)

** 1/2 (out of 4)

This spin off from the SHREK series isn't going to win any awards but kids should find it entertaining. At just six-minutes there's really not too much going on outside what the title offers. Donkey (voice of Eddie Murphy) has a group of friends over to sing Christmas tunes and we get re-worked version of songs like Jingle Bells, The Most Wonderful Time of the Year and Jingle Bell Rock. Again, I'm sure children are going to love seeing their favorite characters back in this short, although I think adults might not be quite as entertained. I say that because while the re-worked songs here are cute enough, I think the film would have been much better had the original versions been sung. In fact, I'm sure many children are already familiar with the classic originals so even they might have had more fun with them. With that said, the animation is fairly good and there's no question that quite a bit of imagination went into the production. The re-worked songs on their own are quite imaginative as well.

The gang is having their Christmas party and Donkey is singing. Others follow in turn with their own renditions of familiar Christmas songs. While it's fun to have the gang around, there isn't any plot. It's essentially sing-along time. It's harder to get the jokes when it's in song form. It's too short to be a musical with so many songs. This won't be a classic but it's fine for a short.
