Netflix's 'That Christmas' promises heartwarming holiday cheer, but does it deliver? Our review digs into this animated special, based on the beloved children's book series by Richard Curtis.
The animation style is charmingly simple, reminiscent of classic Christmas specials, and the voice acting is top-notch, featuring a stellar cast. 'That Christmas' follows several interwoven stories of families navigating the festive season. While the themes of family, community, and forgiveness are present, some storylines feel a bit underdeveloped.
Ultimately, 'That Christmas' is a pleasant, easy-to-watch holiday film. It's not groundbreaking, but its heartwarming moments and nostalgic animation make it a worthwhile watch for families, especially those familiar with the books. A solid 3.5 out of 5 stars!
