All I Want for Christmas Is You

Wow, I can't believe the people around Mariah Carey even allowed her to produce and star in this her own vanity project. Hidden under the guise about a little girl named "Mariah" (no surprise there) who agrees with her dad to take care of a somewhat rogue puppy with the agreement that if she is capable of showing she is responsible enough by first taking good care of this rambunctious mutt she can then go back to the pet shop and buy the purebred dog she really wants.

I don't think there were many scenes in this film that Mariah does not narrate, sing, and/or feature in the scenes. Heck even in the closing so called "credits" as the list of names is scrolled through all we get to see is the adult Mariah Carey playing in the snow singing one of her songs. I would much rather have seen the actual people behind the other voices in this animated Christmas special, but no, we are subjugated to watching the Princess Mariah frolic in the white snow in her red coat all alone as her voice is heard singing the movies theme song.

The best line in this Mariah vanity project which was supposed t be a children's animated Christmas special was "The End".

I give it a 4 out of 10 IMDB rating

A very likable little heroine, a trouble-making dog, and an ethnically diverse, extended family of unique, engaging characters keep the giggles coming and warm the heart by the story's end. The creative team brings Mariah Carey's book to life with style and spirit. All of the performances, including the kids', are excellent. Carey's songs and narration are well-integrated into the upbeat tale. A subplot featuring Grandpa Bill's (Henry Winkler) competition with a neighbor over Christmas decorations that light up the neighborhood is fun as well. What's more, Little Mariah learns something as she struggles to master the art of responsible pet care. All I Want for Christmas Is You is a sweet addition to holiday movies for young families. Yes I recommend it James Welch Henderson, Arkansas 12/19/2020

This movie didn't have anything to show kids what Christmas is all about. It just showed mean people. It also presented 2 people not having fun, competing and cheating. It was a horrible experience. I didn't like it at all. Horrible, horrible, horrible!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This movie is just upsetting to see how they treat a poor puppy but also the adults/children in this movie are ridiculous/mean/self centered/ridged 🙄 my toddler liked the movie so ill give it two stars for that.

This movie has been so underrated by a few viewers. Mariah thought that Princess was her perfect dog but it ended up being Jack. This movie is good for all ages and I totally recommend watching it.
