Forest Whitaker, Phylicia Rashad, Madalen Mills, and Keegan-Michael Key in Jingle Jangle: A Christmas Journey (2020)
A musical adventure and a visual spectacle for the ages, 'Jingle Jangle: A Christmas Journey' is a wholly fresh and spirited family holiday event. Set in the gloriously vibrant town of Cobbleton, the film follows legendary toymaker Jeronicus Jangle (Academy Award winner Forest Whitaker) whose fanciful inventions burst with whimsy and wonder. But when his trusted apprentice (Emmy winner Keegan-Michael Key) steals his most prized creation, it's up to his equally bright and inventive granddaughter (newcomer Madalen Mills)--and a long-forgotten invention--to heal old wounds and reawaken the magic within.

    Storyline

    • Trivia
      The snowball fight scene was filmed in the historic Elm Hill area of Norwich, UK. Over 80 local people, some of whom work in the shops and business converted for use in the film, were used as extras.
    • Goofs
      SPOILER: People are surprised that Jeronicus' new invention can talk, even though they just saw Don Juan Diego moving and talking of his own accord.

      Only Mr. Delacroix is surprised, as he is the only character who wasn't there any of the times Don Juan was "alive". He arrived only after that doll had been deactivated.
    • Quotes

      Ms. Johnston: I know about losing things. But the magic isn't just in what you've lost. It's in what you still have.

    • Crazy credits
      Throughout the first part of the credits, mechanical toy versions of the characters show their lives after the events of the movie.

    Not sure what to think.
    While I can't agree with the "best ever" crowd I certainly don't subscribe to horrible either. Something for everyone and that's what doesn't put it in the classic category for me. Like-able cast, like-able musical numbers, and like-able special effects just didn't add up to a love-it movie. Cut the flying scenes and love interest moments and it might have felt a little more focused.
