Tasha Robinson Polygon There's nothing particularly wrong with Alien Xmas, a cute supplement to a long canon of Christmas-in-peril stories. But there's nothing here that would make it a classic worthy of inspiring future canon entries, either. Dec 1, 2020 Full Review Jennifer Green Common Sense Media Adorable family tale of Christmas spirit has mild scares. Rated: 4/5 Dec 2, 2020 Full Review Daniel Hart Ready Steady Cut Alien Xmas reminds us that we all have that spirit within us at an important time of year. Rated: 3/5 Nov 26, 2020 Full Review John Squires Bloody Disgusting The Chiodos smartly pull from the tried and true classics to craft their own holiday special that's cut from the very same cloth. Rated: 4/5 Nov 25, 2020 Full Review Cheryl Eddy io9.com Alien Xmas' message about consumerism may be simple, but that doesn't make it any less valuable. Nov 23, 2020 Full Review John Serba Decider It's a bit of a sloppy plot, but also kind of endearing in its loosey-gooseyness. Nov 20, 2020 Full Review Read all reviews

Halli B I LOVED this movie. Start to finish, all the ups and downs. The stop motion style is reminiscent of claymation and very nostalgic. The storyline is beautiful and a great message for people of all ages. I am a teacher, and my 1st, 4th, and 7th graders all loved it!! I can see why it has 100% critic rating. Whether adults sans kids, parents, or kids! Grab some popcorn and enjoy!!! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 12/22/23 Full Review Robert R Good one to watch with the kids, not the best Christmas movie, but enjoyable enough. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 12/13/23 Full Review Rio R You can feel the inspiration from so many wonderful sources! There are moments reminiscent of Tim Burton, some music that feels very Danny Elfman, and some more unexpected inspirations like Invader Zim and Mars Attacks. The story is reasonably simple but also sweet and silly, perfect for the intended audience (my ten year old boy LOVES it). The artwork throughout goes from impressive to incredible. The set and prop design really steals the show. I can't praise it enough. I was really delightfully surprised at how good it was. This is going to be a new Christmas tradition for sure! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 12/05/23 Full Review Alexander B A terrific heart warming film with great animation and an interesting story. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 12/13/22 Full Review Audience Member A wonderful commentary on contemporary attitudes to consumerism, capitalistic notions of ownership, and - ultimately - empathy. A relevant and insightful twist on a rote formula, "Alien Xmas" is a true gift to anyone lucky enough to stumble across it. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/24/23 Full Review Audience Member Very cool very creative I wish there was another KillerKlownsfromouterspace movie Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/31/23 Full Review Read all reviews
