To me, this movie is perfection.

How sad is this?

Good movie but grossly overrated

A lot of perfectly good film show their cards early, establish a unique premise and let the audience explore a topic at a leisurely pace, without much in terms of surprise. this film is not one of those films.

If other reviews haven't already told you, this isn't that good a special. I'm not sure why it gets aired as often as it does. I haven't seen the other sequels to Frosty the Snowman, but they are probably better than this. So much of what one loved about the original special is missing in this one. Most of the plot doesn't make sense and none of the characters from the original, save for Frosty, is even in this. Typically, this is a good special to skip while you watch more enjoyable specials that I hope you either have or can find elsewhere. This probably is a good special to some people, but I find this to be very dull and pointless with only wasted time in store for people who watch it.

Frosty the Snowman is a timeless Christmas classic with memorable characters, beautiful music and great animation. Frosty's Winter Wonderland while not as good was quite nice. However, this was close to abominable really. It has little to do with Christmas, and is a mockery of the original. It is completely charmless and quite obnoxious and mean-spirited. The animation is very shoddy, and the music is completely unmemorable. The story is disjointed and laboured, and the writing is dreadful. The characters, including Frosty, are devoid of charm and likability and the villain was actually quite annoying. The voice cast try their best but they are wasted. Overall, an embarrassing mess with few if any redeeming features. 1/10 Bethany Cox

Oh, to start, the music is terrible. I could get better sounds from my old MIDI generator. The Nintendo Entertainment System had better sound than this cartoon. The animation is awful, like no effort was put into it. The plot line is terrible, and while that's not as important, it should at least be cohesive enough to watch, and it's not. Now, I love John Goodman, but he can't sing, at least not here. I love Jonathon Winters, but this is just beneath him, it really is. If you have kids, and want to plop them down in front of the TV and watch this cartoon, they may behave better if you immediately threaten afterward that bad behavior will result in multiple viewings. That should help.Otherwise, avoid this movie. It's a waste of time.

I usually don't comment on material like this, but come ON. This has to be the worst holiday special ever, and I've seen "A Louie Anderson Christmas" which at least had a couple of subtle laughs in it. This one has nothing to offer except a twisted study of, yes, Liberal Hollywood pet issues on display masquerading as entertainment. And no, I don't listen to Rush Limbaugh, reached these conclusions on my own, and am appalled by how utterly vapid this is as a family entertainment. Pardon me if I take it seriously, but kids aren't stupid and deserve better than this. First off, Christmas is gone, which is odd considering that Frosty is supposed to be a children's Christmas character. They even took his pipe away since we all know that smoking snowmen will be a bad influence on kids. Instead of a holiday, the focus of the retards in this special's town is a non-denominational "Winter Carnival" that is featured so prominently in the dialog that you get the feeling at the screenplay stage somebody literally crossed out the word "Christmas" whenever it was used and wrote "Winter Carnival" over it instead in an effort to make the cartoon more audience-inclusive for those who don't celebrate Christmas. Gee. Also, the whole "miracle" of Frosty's creation is utterly ignored (which makes sense, since we're working any kind of spiritual angle out of this to make way for more consumerism), making the choice of Frosty as the focal character arbitrary & meaningless. Why didn't they just create their own non-denominational Winter Carnival character? The answer is to cash in on the public's fondness for the popular Rankin/Bass cartoons that came before. It's just crass commercialism.Next, the bad guy in the plot is a mean wicked Capitalist who drives around in a stretch limousine polluting the environment with aerosol spray can chemicals that eliminate snow, with his flunky brainwashed nature backstabbing rabbit doing the dirty work. It's not magic spray or anything either, just chemistry, and the mean rich Capitalist threatens to disrupt the non-denominational Winter Carnival by making the snow disappear without even asking for anyone's permission first. He just goes ahead and does it to impose his own will upon nature, just like certain pinheads would have you believe that the world's industry does in a deliberate effort to ruin the planet. Even more telling is that the meanie Capitalist isn't even allowed to learn or grow or be changed by the events, he's simply a two dimensional bastard for everyone to hate and go right on hating even after the show is over.Which brings us to the issue of environmentalism, clumsily imposed on the story in the cartoon's big moment of revelation where the mean Capitalist is exposed as the threat to everyone's communal happiness as he is lectured to by an 8 year old girl about how snow is as important as sunlight and rain and, yes, clean air for everyone to breathe. This isn't holiday entertainment, it's a subtle form of indoctrination aimed at school kids. And I'd like to invite whomever came up with the idea about grumpy fun-wrecking adults not enjoying shoveling to come to Syracuse and deal with my sidewalk after a healthy dose of lake effect snow. Just once.That leaves us with the songs, which are execrable. Why didn't they bother to get Joan Baez or someone with some actual talent to work these political messages into some songs worth listening to? The answer is because it didn't matter, and that the whole special is a contrivance. I'm one of those people who think that entertainment for children should be even more meaningful and worthwhile than entertainment for adults and something about this special doesn't pass the smell test. It comes across as a filmed deal with a bunch of celebrities providing the voices because their agents thought it would be a good career move to be involved with a non- denominational seasonal family special that has an environmental message to it.2/10: Skip it.
