Thoughts on Christmas at Cattle Hill
Thoughts – Christmas at Cattle Hill is an animated movie that will look to bring together the idea that Christmas is best together, rather than having the best decoration. We do get the likeable characters with the younger members of a family getting caught up in needing to fix Christmas and learning that she will have the support of her family to make things better, while bringing together the animals that are different. This will offer up some nice music that is focused on bringing back the meaning of Christmas in the purest way, one that is easy to watch and will have a few laughs along the way. The animation in the film is strong, even if the decision to use different farm animals, might seem strange for certain moments.
Signature Entertainment presents Christmas at Cattle Hill on Digital Platforms 18th October
Final Thoughts – Christmas at Cattle Hill is a cute and charming Christmas, with the true meaning of Christmas coming through.
