Albert is the story of a tiny Douglas fir tree named Albert who has big dreams of becoming Empire City's most famous Christmas tree. When the search for this year's tree is announced, Albert believes he has found his calling and hits the road with his two best friends, Maisie the persistently positive plam tree, and Gene the abrasive and blisteringly honest weed, to fulfill his destiny. With a few prickly situations along the way, and Cactus Pete out to stop him, Albert learns the true meaning of Christmas.

Super nostalgia. I remember watching this on Nickelodeon close to Christmas. The animation style is a mix of claymation and 3d animation and I low key like it. The jokes are pretty good. The only problem really about the movie is that it isn’t long enough. It would be better if it was a full movie instead of a 40 minute special. Like most movies like this the humans don’t look the best. This movie was the best it was given what how much time they weee given and the state of Nickelodeon being in one of the worst it’s been in a long time.
