Once upon a time, Santa operated with just a small workshop and a few elves. But, as Christmas has grown ever bigger, Santa has been forced to innovate! Now his cleverest elves develop amazing technology, including a hologram to hide the North Pole and a time machine to allow Santa to deliver presents to every home in the world, in just the one night. Bernard is an elf who dreams of creating such inventions, but his job is to clean the reindeer stables! Yet when he creates an amazing Christmas memory machine, his luck might be changing. But Bernard’s invention is broken by a curious elf, causing the North Pole’s power to fail and the hologram hiding it to disappear. Now exposed to the outside world, it is spotted by Santa’s enemy, Neville Baddington, who is determined to steal Santa’s secrets for himself. The only person who can stop him is Bernard. (iTunes)

Another animated film trying to capture the magic of Christmas. Even the voices of famous actors, including Martin Freeman, can't save it, unfortunately. The villains are starting to resemble each other, with tall bodies and narrow mustaches. Clearly, because all villains are from France. The animation is fine, but nowadays it's nothing to rave about. Pleasing, nice, and that's about it.
