Set in a 1940s-era Midwestern town and told from the viewpoints of a seven-year-old boy, who only wants one thing for Christmas - a Red Ryder BB gun - the episodic tale chronicles not only his schemes to convince his mother and father to buy him one, but also offers a warmly nostalgic look into 1940s middle-class American life.

I was wondering why this movie has such high ratings, but it has that child's perspective on Christmas, moreover on a very specific Christmas, where it's about one children's toy that isn't completely safe, but above all, it's about a family that is a little crazy, but not overly so, and it's worth it. It's entertaining, it doesn't stop and in the end it has a funny and always Christmassy culmination.
