THE PLOT THUS FAR
Curious what Santa Claus, his nine flying reindeer and the Elves do the other 364 days of the year? In this non-stop adventure, Santa and his team are on search for the perfect toys for all the boys and girls on his Nice list. After sleighing around the real world, they journey into a place full of magic. There, they discover the evil Gruzzlebeard has cast a spell on all the toys, making them come to life. With Christmas rapidly approaching, Santa and the Elves must undo this evil spell before it’s too late!
WHAT WE THOUGHT
“The Secret World of Santa: Elves in Toyland” is what you think it is. Two discs loaded down with episodes about kiddie elves teaming up to save Santa, Christmas or the fourth quarter. I don’t know, as I clocked out around the second episode. I don’t get what the deal is with the villain, but most of these characters don’t make sense to me. When did I get so old? There was a time when….never mind, I always hated this stuff.
The DVD comes with no special features. The Dolby 5.1 track holds up for a kiddie cartoon. However, the transfer seemed to be washed out. Still, it’s typical for a standard definition presentation of an animated affair. In the end, I’d recommend a rental.
