From Sony Animation comes a fun, new telling of the Nativity Story in _The Star_. The film follows a donkey who escapes from the mill and is taken in by newlyweds Mary and Joseph, and soon becomes torn between following his dream of joining the Royal Caravan and helping his new friends. Featuring the voice talents of Zachary Levi, Christopher Plummer, Kelly Clarkson, and Kristin Chenoweth, the film is fairly well cast. And, the animation style is pretty good; with some charming and cute character designs for the various animals that gives them personality. However the music is rather intrusive, really drawing attention to itself (pushing the soundtrack). Also, the message of the Nativity Story is a little watered down; but given that it’s aimed at kids, that’s somewhat to be expected. _The Star_ isn’t perfect, but it’s an entertaining film that the whole family can enjoy.
