Long before Santa lived in the North Pole, it was ruled by a creul wizard named Winterbolt. But the Northern Lights transform

But as nothing last forever Winterbolt awakens as Lady Borealis weakens. Winterbolt learns of Santa and wants to beat
him at his own game by creating a fog, but Lady Borealis uses the last of her power to a newborn Reindeer named Rudolph a
power to pierce the fog.
Now Winterbolt makes plans to have Rudolph into losing his powers forever. By tricking Rudolph and Frosty into helping
a circus with money problems. Can Rudolph save his powers and the Circus before Winterbolt steals Christmas.
ZEDD'S OPINION:
A complicated plot and a complicated movie. It was great to see Rudolph and Frosty together in the same movie. I also liked
seeing cameos from Jack Frost and Big Ben the Whale from RUDOLPH'S SHINY NEW YEAR. A fun, touching musical for the whole
family. I give it 10 STARS
VOLTRON'S OPINION:
I loved this movie, I loved it allot. The music is great and I agree with Zedd that it was cool to see these chacters from
other specials. A real cool crossovers. I also give it 10 STARS
ON THE POSITIVE SIDE (+ HITS):
+ CROSSOVERS (From Frosty, Rudolph specials)
+ NEW VILLIAN (The villian Winterbolt is really cool)
+ MONSTERS (Winterbolt's monsters are cool)
+ STORY (The story really works well)
+ MUSIC (The music is perfect)
+ CAST (A great cast of great talents)
AND FINALLY....
ON THE NEGATIVE SIDE (- MISSES):
- NOT FOR EVERYONE (If you don't celebrate Christmas, then this isn't for you)
