Oh dear.
This...This might be the worst Christmas special special I've seen in my entire life. This might sound hyperbolic but it's not: "Rapsittie Street Kids: Believe in Santa" is terrible in every possible way.
For starters, the animation seems even worse than the one from movies like "Delgo" or "Foodfight". Hell, even the CGI used in the "Money for Nothing" video looks like something done by Pixar compared with this. At least that music video can be justified taking in consideration that it was done in the 80s. This was done in the 2002, and it looks more primitive than stuff like ReBoot.
While the dreadful animation might be the most notorious flaw from this cringe worthy special, the truth is that the writing and characterization isn't exactly something stellar either...In fact, if this would have done with a somewhat more-professional looking animation, "Rapsittie Street Kids: Believe in Santa" would be still pretty bad, due the bland and forgettable characters, dull plot and bad songs. You have people like Nancy Cartwright and Mark Hamill voicing some characters, yet they are not able to save the complete mess this movie is... (And honestly, they sounded a bit unmotivated in their respective roles, but honestly, who could blame them)
And to think this actually aired on TV. The early 2000s were truly dark times for animation...
0/10 (But while I think it's absolutely horrid, I guess that laughably bad CGI gives it a certain entertainment value...I guess that in a way, we could say this equivalent of stuff like "Birdemic" for animated movies)
