I Want a Dog for Christmas, Charlie Brown Audience Reviews

TinsHeadline Touches You
AniInterview Sorry, this movie sucks
Glucedee It's hard to see any effort in the film. There's no comedy to speak of, no real drama and, worst of all.
Ezmae Chang This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.
Meaghan Edwards While "I Want a Dog for Christmas" has it's flaws and may not totally live up to the old "A Charlie Brown Christmas", it nonetheless manages to hold a special place in my heart and has remained a staple for my family's Christmas viewing for three years running. I can remember being in the philosophical Rerun's position, both for wanting a dog -- for years and years until I was able to get one when I was in my teens, and also for and also for being treated as the "baby" in the family. Seeing other members of Snoopy's family was a treat.I felt the script could have been a little tighter, but I think it is far from being dreadful.
Subbuteo_IA This is awful. There is no real story line here. Instead, it is a series of jump cuts from one joke to another. You can almost picture the four panel strips that the jokes were originally presented in. While some of the material is funny, the scattered nature of the "plot" really detracts from your enjoyment. Yes, I know it is a "cartoon", so my disparaging of a lack of a plot may seem overblown. However, I challenge you to compare this to "A Charlie Brown Christmas" and I believe you will understand my point.I am not sure what the running time is, but the network managed to cram in a lot of commercials over the hour.
MJohnsontalker This one pales in comparison to the original Charlie Brown Christmas. This movie is lacking a lot. In fact it is lacking all the the originals have in them, MEANING.This has its cute moments, and some humor in it. It just isn't the same though. Charles Shultz you are missed!!!I do not recommend this one
RNMorton Charles Schulz is terribly missed by all of us Peanuts fans. This is an excellent posthumous work. Main theme is Rerun's search for a dog for Christmas, but we get to see each of the main Peanuts characters doing their thing in a Christmas setting. Not all the Charlie Brown specials have been outstanding through the years, but this one can be put right up there with the best. Kudos. 9/10
