The Christmas Bunny (2010)

The only thing I didn't like about this movie was toward the end when she ran off through the woods with the bunny and left clear tracks in the snow and no one thought to follow them to find her. Even cops know to follow tracks in the snow.

So many huge mistakes in this from the start. First the bunny that was shot was wearing a ribbon on it's neck, the dad says it probably belongs to someone in the area...duh. Next scene no ribbon on the bunny! Then when the boys put the bunny in the buggy....the parents were angry about her biting the kid and no one even picked up the bunny! Then...the girl leaves tracks in the snow....the dad finds them but calls rescue and a dog to search! Hummm follow the snow tracks...it's not rocket science people! I'm not working...shoot I'll take a job and actually not let ignorant stuff get thru to the release! Uuuuggggghhhhh

Let me make one thing clear from the start: This is aimed at a young audience, it is very slow with an idea that is not original and was most likely made for TV. Those are factors you have to let flow into your vote and/or summary of the movie. You cannot compare this to big time cinema. I can still see that some people would have trouble and seeing this as a waste of their time.After this foreword (or warning if you will), I can tell you, that as someone who loves animals in general and bunnies more specifically, you will enjoy the movie. You'll probably yearn for more bunny time, but you won't get more. The story might be a bit more out there and not as kid friendly as some might expect either. Still the overall message is clear. The girl actress is really good, which only really is being revealed when you watch the Outtakes on the DVD. Plus the old lady is based on a real person (as you can witness on one of the short features of the Disc)

I can't help but wonder if the person who wrote the other review actually SAW the movie. It looked like a cute idea and my 5 year old begged to watch it. I don't let her watch much TV and she was very excited to be allowed to watch this. It had a slow, boring plot line. I found it to be a complete WASTE of our time!!!! The little girl is mute so that adds a lot of silence and limits the dialogue. The parents fight, the little girl is weird and sometimes violent. Not only was it very uninteresting it was also a little disturbing for my daughter to watch because of the parents always arguing. I really wish I wouldn't have let my daughter watch this movie...it was a complete failure as far as I was concerned.
