Mickey's Once Upon a Christmas Audience Reviews

Plantiana Yawn. Poorly Filmed Snooze Fest.
Actuakers One of my all time favorites.
Murphy Howard I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.
Erica Derrick By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.
Seth Nelson Disney in Christmas 1999 released this on video, "Mickey's Once Upon a Christmas," and this time, the anthology setup is back again!!!!!Here, we have three stories. The first is with Goofy and Max, and Max needed a new snowboard from Santa, so they tried whatever they could to send in that letter!!!!! Look for funny mall stores like "Lumberjack Lingerie" and "C.E.O. Shorts" along the way!!!!! The next is with Donald, Huey, Dewey, and Louie, and they wished that Christmas could occur every day!!!!! Finally, we wrap it all up with Mickey, Minnie, and Pete, and we see a story based on "The Gift of the Magi," which I thought was very serious in this series.Christmas just isn't Christmas without "Mickey's Once Upon a Christmas!!!!!"10/10
twighlightmanor If you liked Mickey's Once Upon a Christmas, than you are going to love it's all new sequel:Micky's Twice Upon a Christmas~~~2004FINALLY!!! SCROOGE IS BACK!!! For the first time in almost 20 years Scrooge McDuck gets to be seen for more than a split second cameo!! While still only used as a supporting character, at least he's being used by Disney once again~~(maybe Disney Corp. got over their fight with Don Rosa??? Hopefully? Yes? Friends again? Peace at last?)Scrooge is in not only 1 ,but 2, yes I said 2 stories in this Christmas special DVD!! Cool! The first story we see Scrooge in is with the Duck family~~~and he actually gets a speaking role this time~~~and we see Scrooge cooking him famous money chip cookies~~(that's not something you ever saw in DuckTales, but us die-hard Scrooge-comics fans, remember these cookies from the old Carl Barks comics of the 1950's--how many of you DuckTale's fans knew Scrooge liked to cook? Read the comics--you really get to know Scrooge better from the comic stories than the DuckTales show that was based on the comic.) In the second story we see Scrooge with Micky and friends (and singing!?!)~~he buys out a snow plow truck factory to help Micky search for the lost Pluto.ATTENTION ALL SCROOGE FANS!!! SCROOGE FAN NEWS FLASH!!! WOW!! CHECK IT OUT!! RARE SCROOGE TREAT!!: No Scrooge fan in their right mind would dare miss seeing "Micky's Twice Upon a Christmas"~~~We get to see the new computer generated Scrooge AND for the first time in 65 years we FINALLY get to see Scrooge McDuck in his Scottish Highland Regila---kilt, bagpipes, McDuck tartan, and all! Maybe there's hope for Disney Corp. yet. Let's all hope Disney is going to be nicer to Scrooge in the future than they have been these past few years. I'm glad they are loosening up on their fierce ban on Scrooge and finally bringing him back~~can it be that Disney corp, actually has a heart after all? A BIG THANK YOU to Disney for allowing a return of Scrooge McDuck!!!! Maybe next year they will give Scrooge a staring role??? I hope they do!~~~~from Scrooge's #1 fan
Darth-Helmet This here is an anthology that tells 3 magical stories of Christmas, the first tale tells about Donald Duck's nephews Huey, Duey and Luey who make a wish that Christmas would be everyday ( sort of like the Bill Murray movie " Groundhog Day") then they unfortunately get their wish come true but it's the same day over and over again, they must set things right in order to make it a bright and cheery Christmas. The second tale tells about Goofy's son whom been told by meanie Peter that Santa does not exists, but Goofy must prove that Santa is for real then the last tale is about Mickey and Minnie who must give up their personal possessions for their Christmas love.A highly entertaining, well animated and marvelously done collection of stories with cameos by Mortimer the Rat and Scrooge Mcduck. It's a fun Christmas movie, especially for the Disney lover.9/10.
travisimo The only time I ever heard about this movie is when I pass by it each time I visit Hollywood Video. I've never seen it on TV or seen commercials, but after working with Disney and becoming a big fan, I figure I should give this Christmas special a chance. And it paid off! This is a very nice, funny, and heartwarming movie, and frankly, I'm surprised we don't hear more about it every Christmas.My favorite character, Donald, opens the movie strongly with a hilarious episode reminiscent of the great Bill Murray comedy, 'Groundhog Day.' Huey, Dewey, and Louie wish everyday were Christmas, and soon learn they wished for more than they bargained for. In the end, they learn an important lesson, as does anyone watching this episode. Who among us didn't wish we had Christmas everyday when we were kids? This episode also has a memorable visit with the Duck family, including Daisy and Scrooge.Next up is Goofy's chapter of the movie. Physical comedy is Goofy's trademark, which isn't a favorite comedic style of mine, but he does it well in this cartoon. Goofy is as lovable as always while his son, Max, is much more appealing as a kid than when he grows up (A Goofy Movie). The bond between Goofy and Max is very heartwarming, as Goofy never gives up in his belief in Santa and in his attempt to convince Max. The end result is touching, and also satisfying when neighbor, Mr. Pete, gets what's coming to him!Last and definitely not least, is Mickey and Minnie's version of 'The Gift of the Magi.' This isn't the funniest episode of the bunch, but just like it has been throughout Disney history, Mickey and Minnie serve as the heart and soul of this picture. They both overcome the odds and indulge in the holiday spirit, only to come up empty-handed. This doesn't matter though, as they have each other, and that's all that matters. Side Note: One tiny thing I really enjoyed about this episode was Mickey's dance move that was first seen in 1942's 'Mickey's Birthday Party.' It's fun to remember the classics!Overall, this is a very satisfying and heartwarming Christmas special. The animation is quite nice and vibrant to show off our favorite Disney characters, and the voice-work is well done too (especially by Kelsey Grammar as the perfect narrator!) I wouldn't necessarily label this movie a masterpiece like 'Rudolph, the Red-Nosed Reindeer' or my personal favorite, 'Mickey's Christmas Carol,' but it's quite strong nonetheless. ABC and Disney Channel should definitely let people know about this special. It has the potential to be a classic!My IMDb Rating: 9/10. My Yahoo! Grade: A (Outstanding)
