The fantastically nostalgic, consistently funny, mischief-laden and genuinely touching 8-Bit Christmas (now on HBO Max) reminds me of A Christmas Story — with a touch of the storytelling device employed in A Princess Bride.
It’s a surprise contender for Best Christmas Movie of the last several years.

Melhor filme de Natal da atualidade!!! Pura nostalgia assistir a jornada das crianças tentando conseguir seu nintendo, Michael Down fez um ótimo trabalho com esse filme mas pena que não foi pro cinema. Winslow Fegley é um ótimo ator, super carismático e acertaram muito ao escolher ele para viver o personagem Jake (q eu amei), e eu fiquei muito feliz com o Neil no elenco. (todo elenco é carismático)

8-Bit Christmas has a lot of heart, but the comedy struggles to stand out in a marketplace full of similar, established, holiday feature classics. Regardless, it offers enough of a unique spin on the genre to satisfy audiences — especially millennials.
When it isn’t fawning over roller rinks, “Goonies” posters, and Casio watches, 8 Bit Christmas (streaming on HBO Max) is a warm and refreshingly earnest holiday comedy.
8-Bit Christmas may have a more grounded approach to gamer culture than you'd expect, but it’s constantly beat by its own limited imagination.
Delightful, funny, perfect for kids without being too campy or corny. Really enjoyed this one.

The only reason I wanted to watch this was for Neil Patrick Harris (**** adjacent), but turns out he plays a father recounting his childhood story, so he’s not on camera a lot. The focus is on his 10-year-old self in 80s Chicago, when he wanted a new Nintendo for Christmas. If you read this and think, “This sounds like Christmas Story,” you’d be right. It has the same rembunctuous energy and slightly wacky group of friends and family to add some character fun. On the down side, it’s not especially funny or clever, but for families looking for something new for the Holidays, this should work.
Report
Plot didn't make sense, and the ending didn't have any payoff. The movie has a hard time deciding whether it wants to tell a story or throw all the rules of storytelling out the window for a laugh.
