Customer Reviews of Rudolph & Frosty's Christmas in July

rankin-bass all stars reunited
If you are a Rankin-Bass fanatic like me, you will want to add this video to your holiday viewing schedule. While it's not perfect, the enjoyable parts outweigh the flaws. It's wonderful to see old friends like Rudolph, Frosty, Crystal (along with their two snow children), Big Ben, Jack Frost, and others all reunited. Winterbolt and his crew are without a doub the most scary of all Christmas villains and lend a chilling element to the story that adults will love, but which may be a bit too much for children. Though I do agree that it would have been even better to see Clarice, Hermie, and Yukon again too, the characters who DO appear are wonderful. I think you'll enjoy this one.

Sweet, fun claymation, love stories and good songs
I've given this video a less than perfect rating for it's misleading representation of circus life regarding animals. Many of the cute-looking animals we saw as living toys on the Island of Mis-fit Toys from the previous show were brought to life as circus performers. All the animals look content to have whips waved at them and perform uncomfortable acts... you don't see any cages, just animals that seem like they volunteered to be in the circus because it's nothing but fun. I know this is a kid's show and it wouldn't be appropriate to show what really goes on in the circus, but I wish a lot of the cheesy scenes w/ the "real" animals were just eliminated.

Now that I'm off my soapbox, I have to admit this was a fun film. It wasn't the same caliber story as the original "Rudolph" movie but still highly enjoyable and a fun diversion for kids who love claymation year 'round and not just in December. The songs are sweet, but not as catchy as the originals... but the most endearing part of the video is the love story between Mr. & Mrs. Claus and the love story between Frosty & Crystal. Sweet, sweet, sweet! The storylines were made to be enjoyable by all ages, and they indeed are.
