Entertainment Reviews:
5 stars out of 5 -- [With] vivid background characters, underplayed by deeply felt relationships, priceless gags and thoroughly hummable tunes which inspire varied and imaginative musical sequences.

...Charming...A terrific package... -- Rating: A
Entertainment Weekly
Burton's new excursion in the world of comic nightmare will prove a rare pre-Christmas goblin's feast.

Rating: 3.5/4 --
On a visual level, the movie qualifies as poetry in stop-motion.

Creative Loafing
Rating: 4.5/5 --
The totality and tangibility of the world that Selick and his animators extract from Burton's lovely spidery drawings is one of the major achievements of animation history.

Alternate Ending
This full-length animated movie was shot in stop motion, with all the febrile, twittery fascination that the medium exerts; it has a magic-toy shop feeling, with unexpected objects stuttering into life.

...First, go for the story. Then go back just to look in the corners of the screen, and appreciate the little visual surprises and inspirations that are tucked into every nook and cranny...

Product Description:
Tim Burton's stop-motion animated feature finds Pumpkin King Jack Skellington thinking the grass is greener over in Santa Claus's holiday. He marshals all his goblins and ghouls to take over Christmas, but alas--poor Jack belongs to Halloween. An amazing visual and musical feast that should be seen at least twice to catch all the kinks and quirks in the nooks and crannies. Academy Award Nominations: Best Visual Effects.
