It includes a lot of entertaining animal characters (some of which accompanied Jesus in the manger when he was born) and some songs to make it appealing to young and old alike. While not exactly Disney-standard, there a lot of redeeming qualities that differentiate 'The Star' from other uninspired adaptations.

This film follows the story of Bo, the ambitious donkey working for the town's miller who wants to be part of the Royal Caravan one day. One day he manages to escape with the help of his old friends, who at last recognizes the beauty of Bo's dreams. By focusing on Bo instead of Christ or the story as it is written in the Bible, I was initially afraid that this film was going to be out of focus. You might argue that it still is so it can amuse its very young target audience. But I believe that at in its heart this film is still about Christ, the film just uses Bo's story to give a fresh perspective on the narrative of the Nativity we all know so well. This point is worth some emphasis. 'The Star' focuses more on Bo than on Christ, more on Herod's buff soldier who tries to hunt down Joseph and the pregnant Mary than Herod himself, more on the camels carrying The Three Wise Men on their journey following the Star to the place where the Messiah is born in Bethlehem than on the Three Wise Men themselves and so on. Yet, when taking into consideration its target audience of young children, most of them not older than 7 or 8 years, it wouldn't have made a lot of sense to portray the story of the Nativity as it truly was, with all of the persecution (of Christ by Herod) and bloodshed ( the massacre of the innocents" the real story has. If you want a loyal adaptation of the story of the Nativity for your children, unfortunately you have to look elsewhere, but if you want a lighthearted, fresh and new perspective this is as good as it gets. A lot of comic relief is supplied by Bo's amusing and loyal friend, the pigeon Dave. The villain, as those familiar with the Bible should know, is Herod, voiced by Christopher Plummer. The voice acting, it must be said, is not outstanding, in the sense that none of them really stand out, not even Mariah Carey as the horse, Rebecca, or Oprah Winfrey as one of the Three Wise Men's camels, Deborah. Nevertheless, all of the voice actors manage to get the job done satisfactorily. To conclude, I would like to add something about the film's religious theme and inspiration. Even if you're not a particularly religious person, you cannot fail to appreciate the epic grandeur and poetic beauty of the biblical account of the Nativity, such as the metaphoric and symbolic nature of the Star and the ironic facts that Jesus, the son of God, was born in a manger of all places and that Bo does end up working in a royal caravan by accompanying Joseph and Mary. The point the film wants to emphasize is that we are all following our own unique star, like Bo and Joseph and Mary, even if some of us don't know where it is leading us or going to lead us yet. I would recommend 'The Star' which offers a fresh new perspective to the story we all know so well, obviously keeping in mind all of the liberties in takes. To their credit, the producers do try to preserve all of the Christian values and significance that are to be found in the biblical account of the Nativity (if not the Bible itself. And that's arguably the most important thing in an adaptation like this film.

"The Star" is an animated story of the first Christmas, with cartoon animals as the main characters. I think it's a good production, and one that may help toddlers and tykes get some inkling of the Christian origin of Christmas. But for most over that age, it probably rings more like an "Ice Age" or "Madagascar" adventure for animals. The humans in this instance do have much bigger parts - especially Joseph and Mary, and a fictitious monster man. So, there always remains a thin thread that leads the animal adventures toward Bethlehem.

Except for the monster creature, the story is mostly accurate in following the Bible story of the birth of Jesus. And, the producers did a fairly good job in the art work of depicting the land and settings realistically. Unfortunately, they transposed 21st century social ways on an ancient setting. So, we have some wisecracks by Joseph at times. And, we see his temper and impatience at times. As for the animals - they have all the modern cultural behaviors and speech. It may be light-hearted fun and funny, but all of this detracts from any sense of awe, reverence or anything special taking place. The animals talk about the star, but then the mayhem and pursuit of the story picks up again, and the real meaning of the story is subjugated by the comical and adventures of the animals. So, as a cartoon and animated picture, The Star" is good and entertaining. But for getting the message across of the first Christmas, it misses mostly with the primary audience it might have reached.
