Synopsis

The 'Here Comes Christmas Candy Cane' is an important part of Ponyville: it’s the beacon that shows jolly old Santa Claus the way to the town as he makes his holiday rounds each year. But when Minty accidentally breaks it, it looks like Ponyville is destined to have a bleak holiday season. Minty is determined to do anything to save Christmas for her Pony friends while they, in turn, band together to try and cheer up their despondent four-legged friend.

georgehazard73 Oh sure it doesn't have the dangerous villains the more recent My Little Pony Incarnation has but it makes up for that by telling a charming story of how one pony is able to make up for a simple mistake and bring everyone to the magical home of Santa Clause. This movie reminds me of being a child, always excited for Christmas to come and being unable to sleep. The opening song is perhaps the catchiest song in the movie, not to mention the catchiest Christmas song I've ever heard and the moist original. The other songs may not be as good but there isn't one I hate, nor is there a character I dislike. Minty is certainly the kid in most of us, if not all of us. She knows she did a bad thing and wants to tell everyone about it to make things right but is nervous and afraid of the consequences. There are few errors in the movie but unless you know about them, you'll go right by them without even catching they were there. As a bonus, this movie reminds us what the true meaning of Christmas really is.
allyball-63124 A Very Minty Christmas is my favorite G3 episode/movie. The story is very charming and Minty is a very likable and charming character. The songs are a bit weird (there's one about socks for crying out loud) but they're not really bad. However, the animation can get a little weird at times. The eyes on the ponies are so weird they're almost creepy. I'm sure younger viewers wouldn't mind but older viewers might be slightly creeped out by the ponies' nearly demonic expressions. The story also does take a while to really get started but I think the scenes were necessary and might be better if they were shortened a bit. In conclusion, hardcore bronies and pegasisters should give this a chance and try to think of the G3 ponies as separated entities from the G4 ponies. I also recommend this for kids and for people who like movies such as Santa Buddies.
Sploich I'm a sucker for sweetness, but I'm also a slave to substance, so children's videos like these are a dangerous minefield of disappointment. Luckily for me, My Little Pony: A Very Minty Christmas has at a good portion of the fun and the heart you expect from a Christmas special. While it may not be the most memorable or emotional, it at least tries to be on that level.Christmas time is just around the corner and the ponies are all excited for Santa to visit. While trying to make sure everything is perfect, Minty (Tabitha St. Germain) accidentally breaks the Here Comes Christmas Candy Cane, without which Santa will be unable to find Ponyville. Now she has to set things right so her friends can have a merry Christmas.At first I wasn't sure what to think of Minty. When she's introduced, she's won't shut up, and it was starting to get on my nerves. But as the story went on I grew to find her charming and even adorable. She's scatterbrained and a little clumsy, but she's not stupid and she knows when to take things seriously. For example, when she realizes she needs to do something to make up for her mistake, the first idea she has is to give away her most valuable possessions as presents to her friends. I admire that kind of generosity and selflessness in a protagonist, not to mention a role model for kids.This movie stands out compared to most other G3 videos by actually having a complete story with conflict and even a little bit of peril. I genuinely wanted to see Minty save Christmas, and there's a couple curve balls thrown in to make you question if she'll be able to do so. It's disappointing that such basic concepts of storytelling are so hard to come by in these straight-to-video releases. Just having those puts this above some of Disney's worst sequels.If you have a child, especially one who is into the G4 (the current) My Little Pony series, this would be a great special to bring out next Christmas. I don't know if kids find the drastic difference in art style and characters confusing, but they'll probably find it enjoyable regardless. It's simple, innocent fun that keeps you engaged and entertained.
saddledeagle I don't know how to begin describing this movie. It is by far the best movie I've ever seen in my life! The music was just perfect and original and the artwork was indescribable! I nearly cried watching this movie because it was simply stunning! I wasn't even an MLP fan when I first saw this movie, but I became a fan in literally five minutes! I don't care who the viewing audience is, you've gotta watch this movie! It reflects life in a whole new perspective and made me realize that we need more like this in today's cruel world. I'm a scientist and I personally can imagine anything, even the craziest stuff, but I truly cannot imagine anyone, and I mean ANYONE, hating this movie. I know you will love it, fan or not; it's that simple. The amount of cuteness in this movie was so incredible, I don't think I blinked once the whole time I saw this movie. It also gives you a warm feeling of comfort that absolutely nothing else could possibly muster. I recommend all three movies and soon, the fourth movie will be out February 2007! I will not reveal anything more. I will just say, please in all that is necessary, please buy these movies because I know you will love them.
