Jingle Jangle: A Christmas Journey is a 2020 musical fantasy film directed by David E. Talbert, starring Forest Whitaker, Keegan-Michael Key, and Hugh Bonneville. The movie follows the story of Jeronicus Jangle (Forest Whitaker), a toymaker who once owned the most magical toy store in the world. His creations were loved and cherished by everyone who lived in the town, but his apprentice Gustafson (Keegan-Michael Key) steals his most important toy invention, his cobblestone generator.

This incident shatters Jeronicus and leaves him hopeless and broke. But years later his granddaughter, Journey (Madalen Mills) comes and brings her life to his dark and empty world. Through her enthusiasm and creativity, Jeronicus learns to find the joy in life again and also learns to watch his creativity soar through Journey's appreciation.

The film is a musical, featuring several original songs by John Legend, Philip Lawrence, Davy Nathan, and Michael Diskint. The performances of the cast are also exceptional, especially those of Whitaker, Mills, and Key. Whitaker's portrayal of Jeronicus Jangle is delightful, as he brings a raw, emotional performance to the character. Keegan-Michael Key's character, Gustafson, is the perfect foil to Jeronicus, as he brings the humor and levity that the movie needs.

The visual effects in Jingle Jangle are astonishing. The movie is set in a whimsical and magical world that is full of vibrant colors and surreal landscapes. The costumes and set design are magnificent, with a blend of steampunk and Victorian styles that create an otherworldly atmosphere that immerses the viewer in the story.

One of the standout aspects of the movie is the themes it explores, particularly the ideas of hope, family, and the power of creativity. Jingle Jangle is a film that celebrates the creativity and imagination that exists in all of us, and it teaches a valuable lesson: that we all have the ability to create something magical and transformative.

The film also touches on the theme of loss and how it can affect a person's life, but also how it is possible to overcome that loss and find joy again. This message is particularly poignant in a year where many people have faced uncertainty and loss due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Overall, Jingle Jangle: A Christmas Journey is a heartwarming and uplifting movie that is perfect for the holiday season.
