In this Disney animated sequel, the lovely Belle (Paige O'Hara) and her monstrous beau, Beast (Robby Benson), are in the midst of the holiday season. While Belle has no problem getting into the Christmas spirit, Beast isn't so easily swayed into a celebratory mood. Meanwhile, the castle's pipe organ, Forte (Tim Curry), becomes opposed to Belle's presence, as well as to her holiday decorating, and schemes to put an end to both her relationship with Beast and any Christmas festivities to boot.

If you are looking for a sweet holiday tale, this is not it; it is far scarier than you might expect for a Disney holiday title.

A fairly desperate attempt to create a plot where there's no room for one.

This is a production of Disney’s television animation division and was a direct to DVD release. Mrs. Potts tells the story of the Christmas spent when Belle was still a prisoner in Beast’s castle. If you have seen the original film, there is little suspense in this one as you know how everything turns out. There are some questions about the timeline and how this movie fits into the first. The voice acting is good, as all the original cast returns with four new additions: Paul Reubens as Fife, Bernadette Peters as Angelique, Jeff Bennett as Axe and Tim Curry as Forte. All the new additions do a great job with what they are given. This is a fine Christmas movie to have playing in the background as it does not demand much attention.

Listen, I know it's mostly nostalgia, but it's a Christmas must for me. To have most of the original voice cast to return for a straight-to-VHS movie? Wonderful.

My daughter always loves watching this. It is definitely direct to video, not big theater worthy. It has some scary elements, so not for very young, but it is entertaining enough and has a nice message.

Un film degno di essere visto nel periodo natalizio storia eccellente animazione guardabile e cast bellissimo. È stata una bella esperienza rivederlo su Disney+, anche se Maestro Forte come cattivo e inquietante

It's a good holiday movie. Kind of dumb to make a christmas movie as the sequel. Kind of a cheesy story.
