It’s the deepest part of winter, the exact midpoint, Christmas Eve – half way out of the dark. Amy and Rory are trapped on a stricken space liner that’s plummeting through banks of thick icy fog to the surface of the planet below. Only one man has the power to save them; only one man is in possession of a machine that can clear the fog and let them land safely. That man is Kazran Sardick, a rich but lonely old miser who rules Sardicktown with a sky-mast of iron. The Doctor’s only chance of rescuing the ship’s 4,000 passengers is to save Kazran’s soul and show him that life is worth living. For this he needs to go back, way back, to when Kazran was a boy with a life full of promise. But can the Doctor put a song in Kazran’s heart and love in his life, in time for Christmas? Can he bring him out of the dark?

《神秘博士：圣诞颂歌》的整体故事深入人心，风格怀旧又不失温暖，该片色彩浪漫，制作鲜艳纷繁，该片主创有情怀，人物有灵魂，制作有品相，打破了一般年代剧的舒适感，在大时代背景下给了小人物信仰成长的空间。

影评:

1,上天完全是为了坚强我们的意志，才在我们的道路上设下重重的障碍。患难困苦，是磨炼人格之最高学校

2,像孩子依赖著肩膀，像眼泪依赖着脸庞，你就像天使一样给我依赖给我力量；像诗人依赖着月亮，像海豚依赖海洋，你是天使，你是天使，你是我最初和最后的天堂。

3,整部电影充满张力诗意和激情。

4,影片在营造乐观气氛的方面，还是比通常的大制作怪兽片更刻板也更怪异。

5,影片呈现了非常有创意的动作场景。
