A step down, even if it isn’t anything all that bad to be honest.

‘Nativity 2: Danger in the Manger!’ is actually, only a tad, more serious than the first film, though it still features all the shenanigans that you’d expect from it. David Tennant is an upgrade on Martin Freeman, as is Joanna Page on Ashley Jensen. Marc Wootton is basically the same, as are Jason Watkins and Pam Ferris.

This one doesn’t have as much charm as the original, not helped by the majority of it feeling like a copy. Sure, some things are changed but it’s practically the same story – except for that fact that there is no actual Nativity play involved, so there’s that. I still didn’t dislike it though, it serves its purpose I guess.

It’s on safe ground. This manger isn’t wobbling.

After the pleasing (justified) reaction to 2009s Nativity!, it’s not unsurprising to find that two further films would follow it, starting with this, the first of the sequels. Formula remains the same as the first film, here we have David Tennant (great coup by writer and director Debbie Isitt to get him in a dual role) as an harangued teacher out on the road in charge of kiddies as they head towards the National ‘Song for Christmas’ Competition. Along side him, pulling the the emotional and cunning mental strings, is man-child Mr. Poppy (Marc Wooton once again on film stealing form), enter mirth, poignancy and a raft of engaging kiddies guaranteed to warm the cockles during Yuletide.

This is undeniably Isitt and her team treading on safe ground, which is both a blessing and a curse. For although the finale here – as regards the competition – has a different twist to the first film, it still feels like a redux of that picture – this is because it is. There’s also a problem in that the last third is crammed packed with the competition song entries, not to say the songs and routines aren’t great (Isitt and editor Nicky Ager co-writing), they are, and it’s a nice cross reference of different styles of music. It’s just that there comes a point when it veers close to being filler to pad the pic out to over 100 minutes of film, where much of the comedic human drama gets lost in the mix.

However, it’s still a warm film, and a real foot tapper that’s nice to get involved with at Christmas time. 6/10

Ignore the bah humbugs!
There are many out there who have no sense of fun anymore and have hammered this film.

The truth is it’s not an Oscar winner but it’s fun. We sat in a packed cinema screen of all ages who laughed their way through with a few tears in places and afterwards left feeling good.

That’s what this film does and all those who have seen it I know say the same – yes it’s silly and childish – but it’s meant to be!

Ignore the so called film experts – we can all call ourselves that and justify it in some way – and just enjoy it for what it is, a simple film which doesn’t take itself seriously with a great message running through it.

Utterly silly but fun
Not normally one for writing film reviews but having just watched this with the kids felt compelled to defend it (to a certain extent).

The key word is KIDS film.Mine are 3 and 6 and they both sat laughing the whole way through and immediately wanted it on again when it finished.That,in my book,is a good enough measure of a children’s film rather than expecting it to have lots of subtle gags that adults would appreciate.Having said that,being that I’m a bit silly natured myself,I found it amusing enough in places to keep me watching alongside them without wishing for the end too much.

The story line is beyond ridiculous but if you’re after a good hearted film to get you in the Christmas mood with your kids you could do worse.
