Great Christmas fun in 'Niko and the Way to the Stars'

Directors: Michael Hegner/Kari Juusonen

Cast (Voices): Andrew McMahon, Morgan Jones

Cert: G

One for the kiddies, and a delightful one at that since it’s about cute animals, Santa, Christmas and striving for your dream. It’s also colourful and funny.

Niko is a young reindeer who longs to join Santa’s pulling crew, just like his dad. Problem is young Niko can’t fly and suffers from vertigo.

Enter his pal, a flying squirrel, who joins him on the journey to Santa’s Grotto with the aim of helping him realise his dream. It is, natch, a journey packed with adventure and danger.

It’s a lot of fun that the youngsters will enjoy.
