Rated by Author: 4.5/5 The Buddies, a series loved by many on Disney channel, was an American television series most popular in the early 2000s. Buddies became a nine part franchise due to its popularity. This kid-friendly series followed a group of puppy siblings and their adventures as they grew. These travels consisted of things from looking for treasure to solving a ghost dog’s grudges. One of the most memorable of the series, in my opinion, would be “Santa Buddies”. “Santa Buddies” has the typical conflict most Christmas movies have, the fading of the Christmas spirit. This movie, however, is led by talking dogs, making it a unique approach to this storyline.This already separates it from most Christmas films. The movie follows a puppy from the Santa Claus family, and the already well known Buddies puppies, as they work together to save Christmas. “Santa Buddies” is the perfect film for children and adults during the holiday season. It teaches kindness, compassion, and the ability to change for the better. Near the end of the film, the antagonist, who has been spoiling the Buddies’ plans, has a change of heart and learns to treat them and other dogs with more kindness. This storyline teaches children important life lessons. The discussion over the beliefs of Christmas also brings up the importance of tolerance of different beliefs. The Buddies are told by a wise dog that although they may not believe in Christmas, they should still treat it with respect. Overall, “Santa Buddies”, the fourth installment of the “Buddies” series, is a well meaning movie. It teaches children positive messages while also approaching it in a unique way. It was a movie I loved as a little kid, and I’m sure it would be one that many others would enjoy as well. Comments are closed.
