Watching 8-Bit Christmas is well worth your time. Packed full of comedy, and nostalgia, it’s got so much going for it.

Combustible Celluloid

Jeffrey M. Anderson

Very minor, but pleasant.

At times it seems handcuffed by holiday movie expectations. But you kinda look over those baked-in tropes that are in nearly every movie like this. Instead, it’s the funny bits that end up standing out.

The formulaic family comedy 8-Bit Christmas is elevated by a watchable and occasionally amusing performance by Winslow Fegley ... [It's] ultimately a film that's enjoyable without demanding too much intelligence or emotional investment from viewers.

A hit of pure Gen-X nostalgia.
