Evengyny Thanks for the memories!

FuzzyTagz If the ambition is to provide two hours of instantly forgettable, popcorn-munching escapism, it succeeds.

Humbersi The first must-see film of the year.

Ginger Very good movie overall, highly recommended. Most of the negative reviews don't have any merit and are all pollitically based. Give this movie a chance at least, and it might give you a different perspective.

Christmas-Reviewer Review Date 3/4/2018PLEASE BEWARE OF SOME REVIEWERS THAT ONLY HAVE ONLY ONE REVIEW. I HAVE OVER 400 REVIEWS OF "CHRISTMAS RELATED FILMS & SPECIALS" WHEN ITS A POSITIVE THERE IS A GOOD CHANCE THEY WERE INVOLVED WITH THE PRODUCTION. NOW I HAVE NO AGENDA! I REVIEW MOVIES & SPECIALS AS A WAY TO KEEP TRACK OF WHAT I HAVE SEEN! I HAVE DISCOVERED MANY GEMS IN MY QUEST TO SEE AS MANY " C H R I S T M A S " MOVIES AS I CAN.Now Someone keeps reporting my reviews. I guess they are jealous because I do tell the truth. I want to point out that I never make snide remarks about actors weight or real life sexual orientation. If there acting is terrible or limited "I talk about that". If a story is bad "I will mention that" So why am I being "picked on"? IMDB? When one of my reviews gets deleted IMDB will not even tell me what someone found offensive. Well on to this review.In this movie Gordon Covington (D.L. Green) doesn't get to spend enough time with his family because of woes associated with his job as a used-car salesman. Work pressures keep him from family obligations, and he even misses Christmas with his wife and kids. His lack of caring about his family sends out a red alert to "The North Pole" and one elf is determined to reset Gordon's life.Now all of this sounds good but it was poorly made. The acting was "terrible" and the overall plot feels forced and unnatural. Skip seeing this

Mark Reznicek I watched this with my daughters and it became a memorable event. Not for the plot, acting, or cinematography which were all very forgettable, but for the video game that we created. We were extremely bored with the movie, but my daughters insisted that it must get better in the end.Then it happened...Santa fell from the sky. For a slow movie, they made it even slower by showing an empty screen as Santa fell for an excruciatingly long period of time. And he screamed all the way down. No worry. He survives. But like the video of a car crash, I couldn't resist rewinding it to watch Santa hitting the ground again, and again, and again.Then it became a game to hit the pause button on the remote at just the right moment when Santa appears on screen, but has not yet struck the ground--a levitating Santa. If he hits the ground, you lose. The kids all wanted their turn at the game. And each needed numerous attempts before they were able achieve levitation.As others have suggested, I recommend that you tend to your house chores at the start of the movie and listen for the screaming Santa. Then let the games begin! The movie gets 1 star but if you make a game out of it, I'd give it 3.

Paul Wakefield As a lover of Christmas my wife and I enjoy good Christmas Movies and I am sorry to say that this was far from that description. Like other reviewers I thought it had bad acting, bad script and wonder how films like these ever get passed those who have to Rate them, why this was rated PG for the United Kingdom beats me, surely its time for a Z classification to warn people away from movies like this. Lillith was the only character worth watching and I see that she has never made any other films since, which is a shame as she seemed to be very promising. Do yourself a favour watch Tim Allens Trilogy of Santa Claus Films or Miracle on 34th Street but not this.

crawleyseaholm This movie was not good. The acting is quite awful and memorable only because of this. Specifically, though, if you watch, you should most enjoy the following: The zip code for the North Pole is 90210. The "electric boy" is shocking. The father is a used car salesman. There is one scene in which he wears a blinking bow tie for no apparent reason. Not a good choice for parents who think they're doing their kids a favor by renting a Christmas flick.
