Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable

Very good movie overall, highly recommended. Most of the negative reviews don't have any merit and are all pollitically based. Give this movie a chance at least, and it might give you a different perspective.

It is encouraging that the film ends so strongly.Otherwise, it wouldn't have been a particularly memorable film

"How Murray Saved Christmas" was possibly the most famous television Chrstmas special from last year. It scored nominations with the Emmys and Annie Awards. The main character is voiced by Jerry Stiller, father of Ben, and Seinfeld's Jason Alexander should also be known to many. Apart from them, the cast and crew include prolific people from "The Cleveland Show", "Drawn Together", "The Simpsons" and "Futurama", so this should give you a pretty good idea of what the humor in these 42 minutes is going to be like. It's not entirely harmless, sometimes politically incorrect and possibly not worth a watch for the very small ones. But fans of these shows can give it a go. I would not say it was downright funny, but there were some decent moments. I liked the animated Andrew Sisters and my favorite joke was the punchline on being gay during the holiday season, obviously as I love language-related jokes and this meant something entirely different a long time ago. A decent watch all in all and certainly not the worst way to spend an hour when December rings in again.

'How Murray Saved Christmas' is a lighthearted holiday cartoon aimed at adults, period. (And on Christmas Day itself? Oy! Such a concept!) Fast paced and filled with so many inside literary, historic and pop culture jokes, puns and sight gags that only adults will get. Yes, this is not like your standard "Children, Santa Claus loves you and Christmas because . . . " cartoon that will sit well with those who grew up only on Frosty, Rudolph and Snoopy. But those who live west of the Hudson and south of Yonkers, or are familiar with all of the multicultural references in "How Murray Saved Christmas" will find this cartoon to be a hoot. And, yes, it is forty-two minutes of silly rhymes, plus over-the-top Broadway-style show tunes, to boot.

I've never posted a review here and I admit I am not a fan of the Simpsons, and as I understand, this was written "a-la-the Simpsons..." It is offensive, vulgar, prejudicial, and just pure garbage! But we watched it in the same way you can't look away from a train wreck. I wouldn't let my child or grandchild near this mess, and I believe I will have nightmares myself tonight! I am not sure in which genre to classify this drivel, offensive show, but it certainly does not qualify as entertainment. Too many sexual references, racial profiling remarks, and bathroom humor bits. Made me want to puke.Delete this, if you recorded it, and don't bother to recorded it, if you didn't!Merry Christmas!

Just watched this travesty of a Christmas Special. A pointless but clever string of rhyming, singing, and punning. The constant striving to be clever with the rhyming left me crying(and not with laughter).The writers were, I guess, trying to make a sort of a Dr. Seuss story, but alas they have neither the wit nor the wisdom to pull this story off. The town name "Stinky Cigars" lets the viewer know from the start that this is going to be a bad trip. This is the town where all the mythical and real characters of all the holidays live and none of them are to a one a character that you would like to run into, even on their holidays. Worst of all Santa is portrayed as a mean, greedy and ignorant boss. The elves, that make the toys, are worked day and night, no breaks and no pay, that they gleefully sing about. One of the worst things about this travesty was that during the half hour break a commercial ran to tell one and all that in ten days you can own your own copy of this trash and "Make How Murray Saved Christmas a holiday tradition" The show was not even finished being shown and they already expect you to go out and buy a copy. As far as I can remember there was only one well executed pun in this travesty, when Santa was looking to get some toys, after waking up from his concussion, one of the closed stores is called "Salvador's Dollies" complete with a melting clock on the marque and lamp post. Unless you revel in the vile, skip this.
