WasAnnon Slow pace in the most part of the movie.
Baseshment I like movies that are aware of what they are selling... without [any] greater aspirations than to make people laugh and that's it.
Arianna Moses Let me be very fair here, this is not the best movie in my opinion. But, this movie is fun, it has purpose and is very enjoyable to watch.
Tymon Sutton The acting is good, and the firecracker script has some excellent ideas.
gwnightscream This 1991 comedy stars Harley Jane Zozak, Jamey Sheridan, Ethan Embry, Thora Birch, Lauren Bacall, Kevin Nealon and Leslie Nielsen. This tells about 2 siblings, Ethan (Embry) and Hallie (Birch) who try getting their divorced parents, Mike (Sheridan) and Catherine (Kozak) back together for Christmas. Nealon plays Catherine's obnoxious fiancée, Tony and the late, Nielsen (The Naked Gun) plays Santa Claus whom Hallie tells her wish to and Bacall (Misery) plays Catherine's mom, Lillian. This is a pretty good flick with a decent cast I recommend.
Kall Don't care what the critics say. Compared to many other Christmas Movies, this is a fabulous movie. A plot by two kids to get their divorced parents back together. Both kids are great. Sure it's a fantasy, but so is Santa Claus. Poignant part was when son was watching home movie of parents wedding, babies, previous Christmases.
adonis98-743-186503 Hallie's and Ethan's divorced mother is about to remarry. When Hallie goes to visit Santa Claus, she asks for an unusual gift - she wants her parents back together again. All I Want for Christmas is a romantic family comedy starring Jamey Sheridan, Kevin Nealon, Harley Jane Kozak, Lauren Bacall and Leslie Nielsen as Santa and i gotta say this film is so adorable and touching, the plot is very simple with those 2 kids trying to get their parents back together and as far as the kids go both Ethan Embry & Thora Birch were terrific especially Birch. I wish that Nielsen had a bit more screen time as Santa Claus because he was really good but overall this movie was really good and i'm definitely gonna see it again next year!!!
Neo-21 This movie is a great movie for all those who have been in a situation that you thought you would have no control of. This movie goes with the whole parent trap idea of getting two parents back together. Through a series of events they attempt to. This movie gives hope to all young children who's parents have split. For those children who's parents haven't it's good family fun.Thora Birch ( Monkey Trouble, Now and Then) is young in this movie, she's very cute though. Ethan Embry ( Can't Hardly Wait, Empire Records) is also very good in this movie, his performance is fairly powerful for a kids movie, you really understand how much he wants his parents together. Leslie Nielsen plays a good Santa Clause, it's a small part but he plays it well. Lauren Bacall plays a very impressive role, her character is very down to earth and a very likable person. She plays a veteran actress in this movie who knows what's going on around her.If you haven't seen this movie I suggest renting it. It's worth a rent, you just have to adapt to the fact that it's a movie for younger kids, but it's a movie we can all relate to.
