Luke Gorham In Review Online 12/25/2023
In the absence of any technical bravura and emotional foundation, The Shepherd lives and dies according to its supernatural tilt, which is met with baffling incuriosity; it’s the movie equivalent of an affectless monotone. Go to Full Review
Danny Brogan Common Sense Media 12/09/2023
While it might not hit the heights of other classic Christmas shorts such as The Snowman, there's enough heart and intrigue here for a family viewing. Go to Full Review

Matthew B Apr 20 Don’t waste your time… for a massive firm like Disney, that could have been so much more See more Sam N Jan 28 Let me put it into context. I picked this movie from Disney's movie list, trying not to expect too much. But it turned out to be a nice surprise with twists and turns, feeling disappointment, then curiosity, then a little uncomfortable, then feel-good, and finally leaving me with a sense of wonder and inspiration. Got a lot more than I expected. That's why I gave it 5 stars. See more Dani G 06/25/2024 Meh! Nothing to say, really See more nilufer e @Nilicim 03/23/2024 Oh Disney, why do you have to be so corny? It was obvious from the start, so predictable and boring. I might have enjoyed it if I was a child though.
