How Murray Saved Christmas (2014) – Rewatch

Murray is the owner of a diner in Stinky Cigars, a secret town populated by a greatest hits of holiday superstars. When Santa Claus is knocked out on Christmas Eve, Murray is recruited to deliver all the presents. It’s a completely irreverent, but amusing, tale done in classic animation style with an adult sensibility commonly found in prime time cartoons. It’s got a great voice cast, including Sean Hayes, Jason Alexander, and Dennis Haysbert, some silly fun songs, and is narrated in almost Seussian rhyme. The fairly short film is probably not for everyone, but can provide a reprieve from standard Christmas-time fare.
