Review of My Little Pony: A Very Minty Christmas

My Little Pony I am not a huge fan of, but I do actually kind of like it as it was part of my childhood. A Very Minty Christmas is decent and very cute, but not as good or as interesting(it was cute and had morals, but there was also conflict) as the older My Little Pony episodes. It does have a tendency to be too on the sickly sweet side, with some cheesy, cloying dialogue and some slightly rough character designs and Minty is one of those characters you may warm to once you get to know her, I personally did find her annoying to start with. I will also be honest that while I liked the movie I found Princess Promenade for example to be far superior. However, I did like the vibrant colours and ethereal backgrounds, the score is whimsical and the title song is catchy. The story is cute and well-meaning, the characters are engaging once you get used to Minty and the voice work while not amazing is good, the people involved are talented individuals and do well. All in all, cute and decent enough but not My Little Pony at its best. 7/10 Bethany Cox
