affluenza

More of the out-of-control six-year-old who lives in the Plaza Hotel. It's hard to view "Eloise at Christmastime" as anything more than silly entertainment for the tykes. One might say that the title character suffers from affluenza, meaning that her privilege deprive her of the ability to be responsible (an infamous incident was the boy in Texas who was drinking and driving and accidentally killed some people, but his lawyer used the affluenza defense, and the boy got off).

Naturally, the movie's cast caught my eye more than anything. Julie Andrews and Jeffrey Tambor we all know. Christine Baranski plays Leonard's overly analytical mom on "The Big Bang Theory" (she also appeared as the absentee mom in "The Birdcage" and the stepmother in "Into the Woods"). Jason Jones later became a correspondent on "The Daily Show" (he notably interviewed Iranian-Canadian journalist Maziar Bahari, the result of which was the plot of Jon Stewart's "Rosewater").

And then there's the movie that Nanny and Sir Wilkes watch. It's "Santa Claus Conquers the Martians", nowadays known only because it got riffed on "Mystery Science Theater 3000".

Basically, it'll be hard for anyone over the age of ten to authentically enjoy this.

Delightful

Well, my my, isn't this little rascal Eloise a doggone delight? This is a charming little TV movie that fully utilizes the tropes of kid movies, rom-coms and Christmas stories with enough sweetness and fun to more than forgive the corny predictability. Favorite part (and there were lots of good ones): the old British couple watching Santa Claus Conquers the Martians and remarking, "What a marvelous rendition, don't you think?"

A story of an imaginative, energetic, and loving six-year-old.

The little actress who portayed Eloise was absolutely spot-on. Other comments about the previous movie, _Eloise at the Plaza_, said the movie did not do

justice to the book. Because there was no boredom or inactivity in this movie, I can understand the point, but the plot of the movie is really incidental. It is a portrayal of the adaptation of an imaginative, energetic, and loving six-year-old to the straitlaced circumstances in which she finds herself, just as the book is, and it is delightful.

It was great to see Julie Andrews play against type, but we still saw that upper crust peeking through. Jeffrey Tambor was fine. However, for the most part,

secondary characters were too broad for adult moviegoers.

Other Disney movies with constant action and shallow characterization leave

me cold, but I will happily watch any others in this series.
