Likeable festive fun that seems to be targeting the kids without really caring about the more discerning adults.

The character animation is vibrant and well designed even if it is rendered rather poorly, often looking more like a PS2 cut scene.

But it was still an interesting time travel based narrative that feels like it would have been better used as a double length episode of some TV show.

The memorable aspect is a recurring song that, in each retread of the same moment in time, adds a new voice to it.

I guess it's fine if you want to keep your prepubescents quite but you could do so much better. I would recommend any of the great non-festive family animated movies over this but if you really want something Noelesque I'd suggest "Get Santa" a delightful if imperfect Christmas romp.
