 - Sweet - sickly sweetMy daughter loves MLP. She has been collecting them for years. She loves the new G3ponies (generation 3) but once she discovered the original shows from the 1980s, she's not as thrilled with these DVDs as she once was. This DVD and others featuring G3 ponies are so sweet, they're sickly sweet. I am sure a 3 year old would probably prefer this and other G3 pony DVDs but my daughter is 12 and she prefers the original series now. I was shocked when I watched the 1980s shows for the first time. I expected them to be like the "too cute" mega-sugar-coated new ones, but to my surprise, the old episodes have actual plots and a huge assortment of non-pony friends, as well as an ongoing assortment of bad guys. They're interesting and most of them are fairly well written. I really think it depends on the age of the viewer as to which MLP series is more appropriate. I know a lot of people will say I'm wrong for only giving this 3 stars, but I've seen it and that is how my daughter and I feel about this episode. Its very "safe" and very cute, but on the other hand, the original series wasn't as scary as some reviewers have made it out to be for other DVD reviews. Its not that my daughter hated this episode, but she doesn't watch it over and over like she does with the first season MLP from the 1980s. Gauge by age. Rating:  - My daughter loves this movieWe had originally taped "A Very Minty Christmas" for my daughter and she had watched it many times until it accidentally got erased so we bought the DVD. She loves the ponies and she loves this movie whether it's the Christmas season or not. Rating: - A wonderfully entertaining and gentle children's storyMy Little Pony: A Very Minty Christmas is a cheerful, animated holiday DVD for children featuring the beloved My Little Pony characters. When young Minty accidentally breaks the candy cane beacon meant to show Santa Claus the way to Ponyville, it seems Christmas this year will be bleak - or will it? Minty sets out to save Christmas with her Pony friends, and spread cheer to the despondent. Together they learn that Christmas is about the love of good friends and the power of the heart, with delightful song and dance. Special features include the bonus My Little Pony episode "Dancing in the Clouds" and sing-a-long segments. A wonderfully entertaining and gentle children's story. Rating: - MagicalI highly reccomend this video for kids, it's really sweet and wonderful! I think it's good for ages 4+! You'll enjoy it no matter what your age! Minty thinks she's ruined Christmas, but she soon learns the hard way that Santa sees your heart, not a candy cane! Rating: - I NOW LOVE MY LITTLE PONY!!!This movie was great,it made me want to get every my little pony product!I used to be a tomboy!!!!!
