But before she can carry out her plan, Jessica discovers that her father (Sam Elliott) has made another - very different - plan of his own! Will Jessica be able to help her antlered friend find his way back to Santa in time to make their deliveries on Christmas Eve? The magical final scene is sure to make your heart soar!

This movie used to be a favorite of mine, but watching it this time....it just doesn't seem as good as it once was. The acting was just mediocre, and although I think it is something everyone would enjoy once not sure I would rent it again. Cute for Christmas family movie night I suppose.good family fare - MusicMom
What I enjoyed most about this movie was the acting of the two leads: Sam Eliot as the gruff, unemotional, down-on-his-luck widower father, and Rebecca Harrell as the imaginative but needy daughter. Their relationship was believable and heart-wrenching at times. Harrell acted more like a real eight-year-old girl than just about anyone I've seen in the movies. This was refreshing.
The story was predictable and sentimental, but it is something the whole family can enjoy (though my six-year-old son did get bored about half way through) I appreciated watching a family movie without any special effects, fast-paced action, silly bathroom humour or overdone slapstick.Prancer - Derly
What a cute movie. My kids enjoyed this movie so much they watched it a few times before I returned it. It's about a girl who befriends a reindeer believed to be Prancer. This is a great christmas movie to sit and watch with the whole family everyone of all ages will love this one.
