TRAILER
Synoposis
When Jesper (Jason Schwartzman) distinguishes himself as the postal academy’s worst student, he is stationed on a frozen island above the Arctic Circle, where the feuding locals hardly exchange words let alone letters. Jesper is about to give up when he finds an ally in local teacher Alva (Rashida Jones), and discovers Klaus (Oscar® winner J.K. Simmons), a mysterious carpenter who lives alone in a cabin full of handmade toys. These unlikely friendships return laughter to Smeerensburg, forging a new legacy of generous neighbors, magical lore and stockings hung by the chimney with care. An animated holiday comedy directed by Despicable Me co-creator Sergio Pablos, KLAUS co-stars Joan Cusack, Will Sasso and Norm Macdonald.

” “The Hunchback of Notre Dame,” and “Hercules.” Even though “Klaus” was made digitally, you can feel the influence of that period.“
I haven’t seen it yet, as I was not able to go to the tastemaker mixer myself but I am a holiday movie fanatic. I love that streaming services like Netflix is loading up all of the holiday movies now, and introducing their 1st animated Christmas film! In my childhood, my holiday films were 2D animated, and I think there is a certain kind of holiday energy (no offense to the digital animated one). Kids can feel the joy of Christmas in a new modern way, and I look foward as a big kids myself to check out this new story of Klaus by Netflix!
