I caught this movie when it premiered and although it wasn't Disney Channels best, it was cute. Bryan Cranston did a great job of being evil and Josh Zuckerman was adorable as Danny. When Danny found out he was being scamed and tears were in his eyes I actually felt bad for him. The bad part of the movie was Danny's little sister Kaitlyn. She tried way too hard to sound grown up that I wanted to barf. The directing was O.K. and even though it was amazingly close to the plot of "the Santa Claus" I'll give it a 7/10.
A decent little story in which we learn how Santa is able to visit all the kids in the world in one night without being seen. Unfortunately, when he visits the Wrigley home waiting for him are chief scammer Uncle Nick and his protégée and nephew Danny. When Santa makes an error he is not only seen but ends up unconscious with Uncle Nick and Danny in his new hi-tech sleigh, but for different reasons. Danny wants to complete Santa?s mission while the larcenous Nick has altogether different plans. Good story to teach kids, and adults, the value of honesty and how cheating hurts those most important to us. 6 stars out of 10
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.
I have seen this movie a few HUNDRED times cause they play it all the time on disney, over and over again and i didnt really like it because it was too predictable and it was kind of boring, all i liked was Josh Zuckerman in it but otherwise it was just boring
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.
