Nuit magique

Have always loved 'Twas the night it's so delightful and whacky! Haven't seen since I was a lot younger but happy to see again on Disney plus. Bryan Cranston is perfect as Nick before he became the infamous Walter White legendary character he was a naughty thief that delivers Christmas presents which is wonderful the way his personality is! 'Twas the night might not be known as most Christmas movies but it's one of my favorites.

I'll be honest with you all. I only knew this when looking up Disney Channel movies and only thought it was just gonna be some simple and dumb Christmas movie. But I did not expect for the film to be this bad. 'Twas The Night is heads down, the worst Christmas movie Disney Channel has ever produced. The story is completely unoriginal, the visuals are nearly a joke, the comedy is nothing but cringe, the acting is way too over-the-top, and the characters are so unlikable that they rightfully deserve to be on the naughty list, specially Nick for treating being Santa as fun and games. Honestly, I really don't think it will be worth watching for Christmas. I think it's much better to stick with The Santa Clause and The Christmas Chronicles instead of this. I bring those movies up because they do a much better job telling a story about Santa Claus, contain much appealing looking visuals, and know how to be funny. This is the one Christmas Eve that really isn't worth sitting through the night.

There were parts of the movie that were not that good, but what I found the most entertaining was Josh Zuckerman's acting. I am not sure if it is just me, but I thought he was GREAT in this movie. I have never seen him in any other movie before this, but he was excellent. His acting alone made it watcable (along with Bryan Cranston's, who was rather funny during some parts). I can't wait to see Josh as the Young Dr. Evil in the new Austin Powers movie, he is sure to be great. But until then I will just have to watch this. There were parts in this movie that made me cringe (such as the many computer references), but for the most part it is a pretty solid movie compared to other TV movies.

A former actress takes charge of a town's annual Christmas Eve courthouse production, in which the true authorship of the famous poem "A Visit From St. Nick" is debated. A mischievous 14-year-old boy and his irresponsible uncle almost ruin Christmas when they decide to take Santa's new high-tech sleigh for a joyride.

Bryan Cranston Our eternal Walter White, immortalized in Breaking Bad, a silly Christmas to watch... The little brother is so cute and he idolizes his older brother, even though he treats him so badly, it's very cute...

All of the Disney Channel original movies that are made are obviously not the best you have ever seen, mainly because they are fastly made and not in the theaters. The Disney Channel claims to have one out every month, but in the past year or so it has really bugged me because they have been skipping months (like every other month) and not having anything special in place (like a marathon or something). Everyone has mixed opinions on the movies, some of mine are high, some are extremely low, but for Twas the Night, I am sort of in between.

I disliked this movie for a number of flaws that I find obvious, but not everyone may. One of the flaws was not having the worthy camera angles that they were capable of. Some shots were of a character talking and they showed something in the way of the character witch confused the viewer and questions their judgement. There were also some unentertaining parts, some boring and simple parts, and some predictable ones too. The overall plot was okay, but Disney has done some better ones. Bryan Cranston did great in this, however, the majority did fair, not great. The pros were that at least it kept you watching the entire movie. For the reasons I gave, I will have to day that I give this movie a 7 out of 10. It is a nice Christmas flick some will enjoy.
