Mickey’s Once Upon a Christmas is a three-part story, actually more like three separate stories: Donald Duck Stuck on Christmas, A Very Goofy Christmas, and Mickey and Minnie’s Gift of the Magic.
The story is narrated by Kelsey Grammar, best known for his role of Frasier Crane in Cheers and Frasier. Both shows are also streaming on Netflix.
In the film, almost all of the biggest Disney characters are featured, including Donald Duck, Goofy, Mickey and Minnie Mouse, of course, along with Pluto, Pete, Max, Daisy Duck, Huey, Dewey and Louie, Scrooge McDuck, Mortimer Mouse, Figaro the Kitten, and Chip ‘n Dale.
It’s not the best Christmas movie on Netflix, but if you love Mickey Mouse and all his friends Once Upon a Christmas will definitely get you in the Christmas spirit.
