Arthur Christmas 3D

Aardman Animation leaves the plasticine behind for this festive CG outing

Not at the heights of the best of Pixar or DreamWorks, but Aardman's latest CG 'toon is still plenty of fun and a great AV experience in hi-def. The disc includes both 2D and 3D 1.85:1 1080p presentations of the film, with the latter proving incredibly convincing in its ability to create the impression of depth and volume. The DTS-HD MA 5.1 soundtrack is just as satisfying, making use of the entire soundstage. Extras include a trio of Making of… featurettes, a Justin Bieber music video (with its own short Making of…) and five animation progression reels.
