The action/competition scenes have some dynamism, but the overall look of the film is unimaginative.

While Westcotts script ridicules egomania, it seems to tacitly celebrate it, too.

Elliot: The Littlest Reindeer is strictly for the most undiscriminating small fry.

New evidence for the case that computer animation is homogenizing childrens movies, robbing them of visual interest, this harmless, charmless movie pl ..
The New York Times
1.5
Undistinguished CGI animation, wan humor and uninspired dialogue further undermine this middling, if nicely voiced journey.

Elliot (voiced by Josh Hutcherson) isnt a reindeer at all; hes a miniature pony.
One Guys Opinion
1.9
What it doesnt have is much of a story, or much thats funny for that voice cast to say or do.
Rogers Movie Nation

Performance Worth Watching: Samantha Bee as Hazel is a lot of fun here, happily galloping away with some of the films best jokes.

Literally anyone can fly if they eat Santas magic cookies, and the reason why they dont isnt completely addressed.
The Wrap

Every line is delivered like the actor is patting a kid on the head, and each eyebrow lift and head turn is scored to obnoxious staccato music.

Basically, Elliot the Littlest Reindeer is Rudolph The Red Nosed Reindeer meets The Bad News Bears meets The Paper meets Okja.

There are enough small touches Hazels encounter with a tin can, for instance to ensure this isnt as by the numbers as it might have been.

The ending wont be a surprise, but dont expect an overdose of schmaltz. Elliot has the heart of an athlete, the focus of a competitor, and the empathy ..

Unfortunately, The Mercy not only likely hasnt been on your radar in the slightest, it sadly doesnt especially deserve it either.
