The Christmas Doodle

This is one of the best movies I have seen in many years.

The casting and acting were superb. Amazing character development that draws you fully in to the story.

It's heartwarming, amazing and extremely well made.

The dialogue was sophisticated and engaging .

Cinematography: "Her is a world drenched in color, using bright, soft reds and oranges alongside calming whites and grays that both build, and slowly strip away, the feelings of love between the protagonists. Every frame feels like a painting worth sitting in."

It's always nice to see a great animal companion!

And the doodle is AMAZING!

HIGHLY RECOMMEND !!!!!!

Maybe the worst of everything. Horrible acting,dialogue, film quality, editing. Cannot believe it is being shown anywhere. True it was only 48 minutes long but it was possibly the greatest waste of 48 minutes in my entire life.

Don't expect brilliant cinema. The Wright family do their best with meagre resources to make faith-enhancing films. The acting is very basic, the photography passable, the editing... well sometimes they have to make scenes last longer than they need to!

But like the theme of this film, God has a plan for them, and films like this are just the result of them trying to do His will. So don't knock it!

At 50 mins, it won't exactly take a chunk out of your day. Accept it for what it is. Merry Christmas!

So I was searching Christmas movies on Netflix and this one showed in the list of suggestions. We have a Golden doodle so I thought this would be the perfect movie to watch. It didn't take me long once the movie started to realize this was not going to be a good movie experience. A Pre-school Christmas pageant would be more entertaining. Also I have never seen a movie on Netflix filmed with an iPhone before. This movie is so bad it has ruined my Christmas.

I can never look at our dog the same way again so I had to take him outside and shoot him. Now the kids are crying, I've got a dead dog and it's Christmas morning. Thank you Christmas doodle for ruining our Christmas day.

*okay okay I didn't actually shoot our dog calm down already but this movie could induce many things including violence and vomiting.

Oh gosh I need Pepto-Bismol.

This is not a glossy movie, but low budget home-movie feel - not necessarily a problem for me, especially as filmed in the Pandemic, but the poor sound balance is a put-off. The only reason we selected this show was because we were struggling to find ones with subtitles and this does, but defo needed them as speaking / sound effects / music levels weren't ideal! There's not a lot of speaking, rather many scenes with songs playing (not particularly a fan as too many tracks, although provides a break from regular festive soundtracks. Again, maybe that makes it different from the hundreds of other Christmas movies.
