The Nuttiest Nutcracker Audience Reviews

SnoReptilePlenty Memorable, crazy movie
Maidexpl Entertaining from beginning to end, it maintains the spirit of the franchise while establishing it's own seal with a fun cast
Josephina Great story, amazing characters, superb action, enthralling cinematography. Yes, this is something I am glad I spent money on.
Kayden This is a dark and sometimes deeply uncomfortable drama
Daniel Dell From what I've heard, this looks even WORSE than the Emoji Movie. That may not be saying much, but it still feels like something Sony Pictures made that's WORSE than the Emoji Movie. WHY WERE JIM CUMMINGS AND JEFF BENNETT IN THIS MOVIE??!! The animation is HORRIBLE!!! It makes the Emoji Movie look like a Universal-DreamWorks Movie!!! It's the 1999 equivalent of Rapsittie Street Kids. Still doesn't change the fact that that movie is worse. Why tell the story of the Nutcracker through the perspective of the food?? THIS MAKES NO SENSE!!!! THIS FEELS LIKE SOMETHING THE NOSTALGIA CRITIC SHOULD DO!!!!!It was a straight to video movie that was made by Sony Pictures. Yes, even before the days of Sony Pictures Animation. You though the Star was bad? You thought Eight Crazy Nights (a Hanukkah movie) was bad? The Nuttiest Nutcracker was even worse. I don't know if the Nuttiest Nutcracker is worse than the Emoji Movie or not, but it kind of looks worse. Jerry Smith doesn't know any better. You wanna know what's worse? The Nuttiest Nutcracker even had a TV appearance on CBS!!! I'm not joking. This was aired on CBS of all channels!!!! CBS literally AIRED this Atrocity. Just like how the WB aired the Rapsittie Street Kids.
ButterJuggets666 Did you ever have a thing that made no sense but you start noticing things and you look at it on repeat to the point where it gives the room you are in some sort of background "white noise" comfort? Well probably not in your case, but hear me out. I loved watching this film, not because I'm some weirdo, no, that's unrelated ;). No this fu*%er is so weird that I marveled at its very existence. Now I see that Phyllis Diller, Cheech Marin, and Jim Belushi probably needed some work at the time, but still how they stooped so low as this animated version of "Night of the Living Dead" I will never know. My main draw though? My obsession? How about looking for the mistakes made in the film. There are so many glitches and errors in this "film" that looking for them is like a sport. When you look closely and see how early CG animated films would goof up, causing a peanut to look like it was having an epileptic seizure, you start laughing with the hindsight of how this thing could have even ended up on a DVD much less possibly once aired on T.V. during a Christmas way back. The characters I can only describe as the spawn of Satan manifest in the Matrix. The Nutcracker Prince looks like the freshly revived corpse of Michael Jackson set loose on the world once again. The food products are... odd, to say the least, especially that one female nut. I can't tell what kind of nut she is supposed to be? As for Jim Belushi's rat King? Oh dear Gawd, there are so many mistakes done with the character at some points it looks like some sort of Eldritch horror. Phyllis Diller's Sugar Plum Fairy has to be the most pointless character in the film, showing up at times to "narrate" or something. I figure she needed a pay check and they added her in, though I'm probably wrong. This film when subjected to the gaze of an adult is perplexing to say the least, and could possibly be used as an interrogation technique by the CIA. Anyways, it's a horribly done CGI animated crap fest from 1999 starring A list voice actors, C list Actors, and Phyllis Diller. And for me it was a guilty pleasure to nitpick the mistakes and glitches while pondering the mystery of its very existence and how they managed to even pay Jim Cummings to do the voice acting. Well nice talking to you, now off to the institution...
tkballos This animated cartoon has incredible graphics, comparable to Toy Story or Veggie Tales. The content is funny with quirky twists and turns. It is animated enough to entertain a two year old, and cute enough to also entertain parents. While loosely following the Nutcracker story, the movie contains great Christmas messages about believing in yourself, believing in those around you, and keeping the spirit of Christmas. Very entertaining with great, upbeat, inspiring music. The actors did a great job on the voices. Phyllis Diller's and Cheech Marin's characters were hysterical. This movie has become a holiday classic for our family.
Lee Bartholomew Fun premise, horrible execution. It's as if Columbia/Tri Star handed the weak script to a bunch of student programmers. It's unfinished in places. Their teacher woulda failed em. The graphics are so lame I could play Quake II and enjoy the graphics better.The plot skips around like a record. (SPOILERS??)Heck where'd grandpa come from in the end. Thought he was still captured.Tactics also suck. The physics also suck. Pretty much an idiot film.But I think the kids will love it. Although I'm surprised Veggie Tales haven't sued them yet. This movie stole their idea outright, and copies Candy Land in the process.4/10Quality: 1/10 Entertainment: 4/10 Replayable: 6/10Kid friendly?: 7/10
