Mickey's Twice Upon a Christmas is a 2004 American direct-to-video animated Christmas anthology fantasy film produced by Disneytoon Studios and directed by Matthew O'Callaghan. The film includes stories directed by Peggy Holmes, O'Callaghan, Theresa Cullen, and Carole Holliday.

It is the sequel to Mickey's Once Upon a Christmas (1999).[2] It features Mickey Mouse, Minnie Mouse, Pluto, Goofy, Max, Donald Duck, Daisy Duck, Huey, Dewey, and Louie, and Scrooge McDuck,[3] in five different segments rather than three like its predecessor.[4] It received generally positive reviews from critics.

Plot

The narrator recites the first ten words of The Night Before Christmas before saying, "Oh, wait. Different story, but we'll still see a mouse!" The narrator then announces new tales of giving and loving, and a book opens to show pop-up elves.

Belles on Ice

In the first story, Minnie Mouse and Daisy Duck compete in an ice-skating competition. The girls are joined by their respective boyfriends, Mickey and Donald, as they prepare to take the ice. Daisy becomes envious of the crowd's reaction to Minnie and attempts to steal the spotlight. Minnie performs several daredevil stunts to regain the spotlight while Daisy summons the Fantasia Hippos, who become her backup skaters while her counterpart summons the alligators from the 1940 film. When Minnie slips while landing from a stunt blindfolded, Daisy helps her up while feeling sorry for her selfish actions. Minnie feels the same way, so they both reconcile and perform a grand finale as a team.

Christmas: Impossible

The second story tells the story of Huey, Dewey, and Louie celebrating Christmas Eve with Donald and Daisy Duck at Uncle Scrooge's mansion in Duckburg. After they cause trouble at dinnertime, the boys know that they are on the naughty list, so they travel to the North Pole to write their names on Santa's good list. At Santa's workshop, the trio make a mess while trying to find the key to the room containing Santa's good list, but they and the elves clean up to save Christmas. Before they leave, they have a chance to add their names to the good list; however, they add Scrooge's name instead. On Christmas, they find a single gift for Scrooge, but Santa leaves a note that explains that their actions caused them to be put on the good list and more presents are behind the tree.

Christmas Maximus

"Christmas Maximus" redirects here. For the block, see All I Watch for Christmas.

The third story's focus is on Max Goof and his father Goofy celebrating the holidays. A young adult Max brings home his girlfriend Mona to meet his father, Goofy. However, Max is embarrassed by his dad, who labels his car a limo, decorates the house with many Christmas lights, shows baby pictures to Mona, and wipes cocoa off Max's face. While wandering outside, he notices that his scarf is made by Goofy and realizes that Goofy is always goofy, and that is why he loves him. Max then forgets about being embarrassed and joins in the fun when the popcorn-making machine goes haywire.

Donald's Gift

The fourth story focuses on Donald Duck and his Christmas wish of peace and quiet. As he returns home from grocery shopping, he is slowed down by daydreaming and a series of well-wishers who sing "We Wish You a Merry Christmas". Donald becomes increasingly annoyed by the joyous people, and at home, he is annoyed to hear the same Christmas carols on his radio. When Daisy and his nephews arrive, Donald becomes annoyed that they want to go out so soon after he returned home, but Daisy drags him out anyway. At the mall, Donald discovers various objects playing the same Christmas carol; he thinks he is in peace inside a secret room, where he finds animatronics singing. He destroys the entire show at Mousy's that Daisy, Huey, Dewey, Louie, and the crowd were trying to see. After he is thrown out of the mall, Donald walks home alone while feeling guilty for his lack of Christmas spirit. He apologizes to everyone for his selfishness and joins the townspeople convened around a Christmas tree happily singing.

Mickey's Dog-Gone Christmas

The fifth and final story stars Mickey as he makes decorations for the Christmas party, which his dog, Pluto keeps interrupting. When Pluto attempts to help by putting the star on the Christmas tree, he accidentally ruins all the decorations (with three mini Santas turning headless and losing power) and an angry Mickey sends him to his doghouse as punishment. Feeling rejected, Pluto decides to run away from home and finds himself shipped on a train to the North Pole, where Santa's reindeer adopt him. Back home, Mickey tidies up the mess and redecorates the house with the new Christmas decorations and attempts to reconcile with Pluto, only to find him missing. Meanwhile, Pluto becomes homesick, so Santa and the reindeer help him go home. They complete the Christmas tree decorations, and everyone celebrates Pluto's return.

Like in Once Upon a Christmas, the film concludes with a medley of carols featuring the main characters from the five segments as the book closes.

Reception

Critical response

Joe Leydon of Variety stated, "All segments are sufficiently brisk to sustain interest of restless small fry. [...] Computer-generated imagery provides pleasingly colorful, seemingly 3-D eye-candy. Even so, novelty value of classic toon characters in CGI format likely will be lost on little ones raised on Shrek and Toy Story."[15] Robert Pardi of TV Guide gave the film a grade of three out of five stars, saying, "A candy-cane palate and a festive soundtrack bolster this omnibus, which allows Disney favorites a chance to strut some new stuff."[16] Rebecka Schumann of International Business Times named Mickey's Twice Upon a Christmas one of their "best Christmas movie picks for kids."[17]

Bryce Olin of FanSided included Mickey's Twice Upon a Christmas in their "Best Christmas Movies on Netflix 2016" list.[18] Michael Thomas of Collider included Mickey's Twice Upon a Christmas in their "Best Holiday Movies and Shows on Disney+" list, stating, "The computer-animated special allows for the Disney crew to shine with each getting major focus across their individual stories. If you love Mickey and his friends, Mickey Twice Upon a Christmas is a wonderful time."[19] Megan Stein of Country Living included Mickey's Twice Upon a Christmas in their "35 Best Christmas Movies on Disney+ to Get You In the Holiday Spirit" list.[20]

People Magazine included Mickey's Twice Upon a Christmas in their "Best Christmas Movies to Stream on Disney+ in 2022" list and called it a "series of heartwarming holiday stories."[21] Korin Miller and Naydeline Mejia of Women's Health included Mickey's Twice Upon a Christmas in their "40 Best Christmas Movies On Disney+" list, asserting, "This animated flick features five Christmas-themed shorts that are all kinds of adorable."[22] Sydni Ellis of PopSugar ranked Mickey's Twice Upon a Christmas first in their "17 Best Holiday Movies to Watch With Little Kids" list.[23]
