Review of All I Want for Christmas Is You

How could such a horrific movie be tagged as Christmas for children?!?! Mariah & her father are horrible! First, Mariah wants a puppy for Christmas. Fair enough. Then the father brings home a stray he found & lies to everyone about it belonging to his brother. If she could care for it, she's ready for a puppy. He does it with the intention she will fail, & he can take this innocent baby to the pound, after the rough start it already had, thinking he finally found a safe place to call home. Then she treats him poorly & yells at him bc he's not the puppy she wants. She goes through the motions of having a puppy, but not showing him love. He finds the bed she got for her "real" puppy, thinking he finally found a bed to call his own, & she yells at him, telling him he's just practice & not worthy of this bed. In different words, but that's what she said. Thankfully, the mother & grandmother weren't aware of the plan, & were horrified when they found out. What kind of a children's Christmas movie celebrates animal neglect & emotional abuse? Yes, she learns her lesson in the end, but that's no excuse for the treatment she gives him the entire rest of the movie. A sensitive child will be traumatized! Skip this one. I wish I could give it negative stars go back & I watch this!
