Well, my packaging of "The Happy Elf" didn't have blinking lights, but this was my only disappointment. Thought the animation was great, but then again i have been watching a lot of Simpson shows, and love the animation there too. This movie is from the same company which makes the Simpsons, i've seen somewhere, only it's even better animation. The movie is short, only 45 minutes, which is probably why there aren't any boring moments. There are not any beautiful crying moments either, such as sad bunnies or singing angels, nope, there are only stuff to make you happy or make you giggle. This movie is short, entertaining and you can watch it with toddlers, as well as with bigger children, or "crazy" adults as myself. The voice of Carol Kane as the happy elf's best friend, Mickey Rooney as Santa, and the Mayor (voice by Kevin Michael Richardson) singing "Bluesville", as well as Harry Connick Jr singing the Happy Elf and being narrator and a cartoon character, are stuff which sticks to my mind as a brilliant bonus for the movie, after seeing it. Also the ending is not huge and spectacular with blinking lights and sparkles, but cute. This movie made me feel happy.
