| Mickey's Twice Upon a Christmas : 4 of 5 | |

 It was a little funny at first watching this DVD after the holidays, but I soon warmed up to it and now I wish it was Christmas again! Disney's first full-length CG production featuring the classic characters succeeds in many ways - I was completely entertained and spent most of the time grinning from ear to ear. It takes a little while to get used to seeing Mickey and the gang fully realized as 3D models (oh my gosh, the ears turn!), but generally everyone looks adorable and true to character (though I think Mickey and Minnie's brows were a little too rubbery). As with any kind of animated production, it's the stories that make this a great DVD! There are five tales starring our favorite pals, though they don't all get together until the end. There's an ice skating match between Minnie and Daisy (featuring alligators and hippos from Fantasia), a story about Huey, Duey, and Louie in Santa's workshop, a quick look at Christmas with Goofy, Max and his new girlfriend (which is far too short), an excellent and creative look at Donald's awesome temper, and then a wonderful Mickey and Pluto story, where Pluto runs away when Mickey gets mad at him! I liked the last story the best, but Mickey's always my favorite. My biggest laugh was seeing Minnie using a hair dryer to blow dry her ears, though! I can't wait to watch this again in 11 months!
