Yet all that wizardry, the film states, cannot substitute for heart or replace the soul on either side of the Christmas equation, those giving array of brilliant colors that will impress even the most difficult-to-please videophile. Christmas greens and reds really pop -- particularly Arthur's sweater Most Christmas movies are usually about someone who has lost his or her way, and by learning the true spirit of Christmas, he or she solves a more personal issue. 'Arthur Christmas' evokes similar thematics, but flipped on its head. Arthur already embodies Christmas in ways the real Santa does not, or cannot. In fact, the stakes of the movie are more about Arthur's purity. Will this wonderfully naive young man lose his Christmas spirit thanks to the cynicism of those who are acting selfishly?
