Editorial Review:

Amazon.com:
Based on the bestselling book, The Legend of the Candy Cane is an inspirational animated Christmas story brimming with Christian virtues. A stranger named John Sonneman and the young Matt, who has recently lost his parents, journey to the sleepy prairie town of West Sage in the company of a talking horse and a mountain goat that's afraid of heights. The newcomers' tempestuous acceptance into the small community effects positive change in the lives of themselves, the townspeople, and even the animals. As John Sonneman prepares to open a candy shop, he bestows a small but priceless gift on a now-motherless girl named Lucy--a red and white striped, peppermint candy cane replete with Christian symbolism. Bright animation, engaging Christian popular and jazz songs, and a timeless message about hope and the power of the individual make this a modern Christmas classic. DVD features include a "making of" segment featuring storyboards in progress and interviews with stars like Florence Henderson, Tom Bosley, and Malcolm-Jamal Warner; a discussion of how animation is done; and four songs--"I Think I Know," "Sleigh Ride," "View from My Window," and "Candy Cane Song." (All ages) --Tami Horiuchi

Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - The Legend of the Candy Cane
I would recommend renting this DVD before buying it. I was totally disappointed with it. This could have been a good christmas story to be watched for generations to come but the produces gave only a brief mention of the candy cane symbolism. It didn't follow the story book at all. Instead they chose to dwell on relationships and talking animals. This is not a video I would be proud to call Christian. Once again it makes Christians out to be unintelligent.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Excellent for Christian homes
This heart warming movie is excellent. Yes, it doesn't go with the book, but the story is exceptional. The whole family loves to watch it even when it's not around Christmas time. For the price you can't hardly find a better movie.



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Christmas & Christian Message Weak in this DVD
I have heard of the "Legend of the Candy Cane" but have not read the book upon which this movie is based. For a "Christian" movie, I was quite disappointed with the weakness and almost "microscopic" portrayal of God in this DVD.

For kids with a steady "diet" of Hollywood and Disney based movie features, this DVD may be OK. It is certainly not an anti-family movie and in the end it does portray somewhat of a "typical" family with 2 parents and siblings.

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - The Legend of the Candy Cane
Although the movie wasn't quite what I had expected, it is a good family movie with a great message!



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - disapointed
I needed this movie to better reflect the book...it condensed the 'candy cane' part of the story and drug out the extra story lines.... As I was using it to open a dialogue about the true meaning of Christmas, this was very disapointing. I finally turned it off, and just told the story.
