In Sony Pictures Animation’s The Star<\/i>, a small but brave donkey named Bo 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. KIDS FIRST! Film Critic Samantha M. comments, \u201cThis incredible animated film had me laughing the entire time. On top of that, there are so many talking animals, ranging from horses to sheep and even dogs.\u201d Dariana A. adds, \u201cThis film gives a modern twist to the biblical story of Jesus\u2019 birth which makes it very interesting and keeps you at the edge of your seat. It also has a lot of comedy and funny jokes.\u201d See their full reviews below.<\/p>\n
