The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.

A great movie, one of the best of this year. There was a bit of confusion at one point in the plot, but nothing serious.

A fun little toon that made me feel happy, just like it should for a 44 year old haha, I'm still a kid at heart and most kids will probably love it.

I ended up watching "Stick Man" because my son wanted to watch it. I had no idea what it was about or who was in it."Stick Man" turned out to actually be an entertaining animated movie, despite it being fairly short.There is an overwhelming sensation of this story being based on a children's rhyme or perhaps even a book, although I am not sure, nor familiar with such a rhyme or book. It is because of the narrative presentation that the animated movie does take on that quality.As for the voice acting, well then there was surprisingly little dialogue in this animated movie. And I had no idea that it was Martin Freeman who actually voiced Stick Man before I came to review the animated movie.The animation in "Stick Man" was good and to the point. Although it was at times fairly simplistic, it served its purpose well and it was straight to the point."Stick Man" hardly is a classic, but it is still fun enough to watch once or twice.

I stumbled upon Stick Man when channel surfing and what a delight this Christmas special is!!So many elements make Stick Man so appealing and emotionally moving. The animation, the voices. Martin Freeman shines as the voice of Stick Man (incidentally, I was shocked to hear of his break-up with Amanda Abbington at the end of 2016 - how will this affect the casting of Sherlock?) and when Sherlock ends Martin should consider being a voice artist.The ending was very moving with the viewers wondering whether Stick Man will be reunited with his family in time for Christmas. Thankfully Santa Claus saves the day for Stick Man.

Stick Man is an endearing adaptation of Julia Donaldson's children's book featuring the voices of Martin Freeman, Sally Hawkins and Hugh Bonneville. It remains faithful to the rhyming text.Stick Man lives in the family tree with his family. Stick lady and stick kids or should they be twigs?However while he is out for a jog he gets snatched by a dog and there begins a series of events leading him to be taken further away from home and seemingly no chance of finding his way back to the family tree as the seasons come and go. Luckily for Stick Man there is a festive tinged ending in sight for him.Stick man takes a lot of knocks in this heart-warming CGI cartoon adaptation but he is a kindly soul but at a loss as to why people do not see him as a person but just as a stick.As a slightly cynical parent it is easy to be dismissive of these types of Christmas day special cartoons but I found this to be charming.
