I have a fairly big collection of these types of videos, so I become somewaht critcal of their flaws and missed potential. This video is visually stunning. So much, that when I show my friends my Blu-ray player on my 67 inch screen, I use this Blu-ray as the example. You literally feel like you are inside the picture. Anyone who collects Blu-rays knows, just as with 1080i, there are good versions, real good versions & totally mind blowing versions. This is certainly visually mind blowing. The detail is incredible. I don't know if they filmed this with a special camera of what (I really don't care)but the results are awesome. The music was nice with a good variety, also.
Simply- if you like these types of videos, this is the best of the lot.

This is just about the same as Christmas Traditions!!! I mean the same pictures! Between the two some pictures are used six times. Also some of the items used are tacky as hell like the merry-go-round. The faces on the children look like their lips were put on with a roller. Although this mery-go-round was used on both, however the Traditions is better by far.

Enjoy watching panning scenes of cheap "country" decor, sparsely decorated trees, and stupid, smiling wooden snowmen and angels? If so, you'll love this Blu-Ray. Aside from the poor taste issue, there's also a good portion of overexposed footage and clipped colors. The only redeeming feature here is the soundtrack. It's actually pretty decent, and would suffice for a Christmas party if you turn the TV off so you don't have to see the "precious" scenes of Wal-Mart decor.
