The Star is a new animation about the tale of Christmas, and looks terrible.
The story revolves around a small but brave donkey named Bo (Steven Yeun), who yearns for a life beyond his daily grind at the village mill. One day he finds the courage to break free, and finally goes on the adventure of his dreams. On his journey, he teams up with Ruth, a lovable sheep who has lost her flock and Dave, a dove with lofty aspirations. Along with three wisecracking camels and some eccentric stable animals, Bo and his new friends follow the Star and become accidental heroes in the greatest story ever told – the first Christmas.
I’d rather hammer nails into my hands and feet than watch this film.
The Star is released on November 24th in the UK.
