Customer Reviews of The Nightmare Before Christmas (Special Edition)
Perfect to watch close to Halloween & Christmas. Jack Skelington rocks!!!!!! Wow I wonder what Thanksgiving Town is like, or maybe Easter Town, Or Saint Patricks Town oh well.
What's This? It's the Best Christmas (or something like it) Movie Ever
Not quite a "one-of-a-kind" movie any more (James and the Giant Peach and Corpse Bride used the same stop-action technology), but still in a class by itself, "The Nightmare Before Christmas" is both my favorite Christmas movie, and my favorite movie from among my daughter's collection (though "Toy Story" is right there to this child of the early '60s). The brilliant character of Jack Skellington, "The Pumpkin King", and Danny Elfman's amazing score and songs carry the show, but there are plenty of other high(low?)lights among the dozens of ghoulish characters and scenes--the two-faced mayor, the Strangelovian mad scientist, the minor-key string quartet...too many to list. Catherine O'Hara's poignant voicing of the Jack's cautious admirer, Sally, adds a heartfelt touch to what overall is a pretty strange tale--the hijacking of Christmas and kidnapping of Santa Claus by the denizens of Halloween. My daughter loved this movie too (though she was just born when it came out), but I think I loved it best then and now. "Look, Zero--they're thanking us!" Five enthusiastic stars!
A classic movie if there ever was one
This is one of the top movies in my all time favorites list and for good reason. It came out two years before I even reached age 10 but I remember seeing and it being fascinated in a chilled sense. The Nightmare Before Christmas is a humorous (and somewhat dark) take on the classic Christmas tale--eventually becoming a classic itself. The first movie to be made in stop motion features memorable characters, brilliant music and great talent. Parents concerned if The Nightmare Before Christmas is too dark for some of their children should put those feelings to rest; it's a movie and an entertaining one at that. Like most adventure-influenced children's movies this has its good characters and scary ones. But it's still fun and shouldn't freak one's kids out at all. Overall The Nightmare Before Christmas is one of those films that is both fun and brilliant. It's classic!
