Well, in comparison to the 2017 animated movie "Captain Underpants: The First Epic Movie ", then this 2020 movie "Captain Underpants: Mega Blissmas" wasn't just delivering.

I sat down to watch "Captain Underpants: Mega Blissmas" with my son, as he wanted to watch it. Granted, I didn't have much of any expectations to this 2020 animated movie, as it falls short of what I usually spend my time on watching. But still, I sat down to watch it with my son.

The storyline told in "Captain Underpants: Mega Blissmas" just seemed erratic and random, as if there wasn't a proper red line throughout the course of the entire storyline. This made for a less then mediocre movie experience as we sat through this 45 minute animated movie.

The animation style in "Captain Underpants: Mega Blissmas" was adequate, though the made use of a lot of different styles throughout the course of the movie, some with more success than others I might say.

Granted, I don't really know the characters, nor the universe in which this takes place, so perhaps a lot of things were lost on me. And perhaps I would have found more enjoyment in "Captain Underpants: Mega Blissmas" if I was fully into the characters and the universe.

My rating of this 2020 animated movie lands on a less than mediocre four out of ten stars. This is hardly an animated movie that I will be returning to watch a second time, nor is it a particular noteworthy addition to the Christmas classics.

I am not naïve enough to think that all (or even many) Christmas specials would actually talk about Jesus, but when time traveling to the "First Christmas" to make changes to the traditions that make the Holiday what it is, you don't exactly expect it to just be the day Santa first Santa-ed. I mean why exactly did Mr. Claus pick the name Christmas in the first place?

Just to give everyone a head's up: if you liked the film, the TV series are nothing like it.
