James M I like the episode compared to other fans because of the mystery of the children’s father. The Child actors are annoying and the villains aren’t good, but the design is ok and the doctors dialogue and the ending saves it from a disaster. The music is amazing and episode final scene is great. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/13/25 Full Review Wolfgang B Absolutely appalling. Not only is it boring and forgettable, it barely even does what it's trying to do well Rated 0.5/5 Stars •  Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 07/02/23 Full Review Audience Member While this is certainly not as good as the two Christmas stories that surround it (being the wonderful A Christmas Carol and the solid The Snowmen), I really do not understand why many people consider it to be perhaps the worst, some even calling it one of the worst stories of the entire franchise. I'd definitely put this one above The Christmas Invasion, The Runaway Bride, The Next Doctor or The Return of Doctor Mysterio, all of which were varying shades of mediocrity. The Doctor The Widow and the Wardrobe has some solid imagination, some nice moments of sentimental sweetness, a great visual style and a really happy ending that wraps up the semi-incomplete finale of Season 6. I don't make sure to put it on every December like some others, but if I have some time for some extras, it's one I'll happily pop in during the Holiday Season. Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/09/23 Full Review Movie M Weird, very different and underdeveloped. Has a strong story but is muddled up and misses the entertaining special Doctor who can bring. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/24/19 Full Review Mark K I find this episode to be a bit of a guilty pleasure, a nice small watch, I liked the scene where Marge pulled out the gun, though I didn't like that stuff about 'strong' and 'weak' i don't really see the logic of it. (don't know why this is all caps nothing else is). Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/23/19 Full Review Audience Member The end could have been a little stronger BUT over all a really good special! I was very happy with it and excited to see more! Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 12/31/18 Full Review Read all reviews
