The film makes a home in your brain and the only cure is to see it again.

Recently widowed "Beverly Hills 90210" TV alumni Gabrielle Carteris (as Holly) is not ready to date the many men who find her attractive. She finds new next-door neighbor Steve Bacic (as Nickolas "Nick" St. Clair) annoying, even more so when father-in-law Ken Pogue (as Jack) hires him to work marketing for their "Dreamland Toys" store. However, Ms. Carteris' eight-year-old son Josh Hayden (as Ben) finds Mr. Bacic appealing. He tries to hook his mom up with Bacic. Young Hayden, who seems a little old for this, has asked God and Santa to bring back papa. There is also some intrigue about Bacic having a secret Christmastime identity. He has a sleigh, wears red, and works with little people...**** Deck the Halls (12/12/05) George Mendeluk ~ Gabrielle Carteris, Steve Bacic, Josh Hayden, Ken Pogue

I often come to this website to read reviews of movies. After watching this movie I was certain that all of the reviews would be scathing. The acting by the mom and the kid was brutal. (Sorry kid...) After reading the first couple of reviews my jaw dropped. 10 stars ?!!! They loved it? As I continued to read I decided that either friends or family, (or themselves), had to have written those glowing opinions. Finally, I read the last one and saw that someone had actually told the truth. After all the times I've come to this site I decided to register so I could warn people that haven't seen this awful movie to not waste their time. Really, if you value your time at all, don't watch what I now consider to be one of the worst movies I have ever seen. Yes, it was so bad that it got me to register just so I could get the truth out there. I know that our opinions of movies are subjective, but when one is as terrible as this one, I can't believe it got even one good review, let alone several. The great reviews have to be from friends or relatives.

What can I say about this movie, BUT HOW Awesome!!!! Steve Bacic was so cute as Nick ST. Clair (aka SANTA), I sure loved how he turned into Santa at the end. And yes he was a younger, hipper VERY SEXY ST. NICK! I also loved those wacky Hawaiian shirts, very colourful, the reindeer and sleigh were cool. The rest of the cast was also amazing. I sure hope that this movie becomes a holiday favorite. Because I know that I will watch it year after year! I hope that more movies of this quality are made, because it is nice to see movies with a beautiful message. And I hope that Steve is able to play more roles where he is OH, SO CUTE (not that, that is hard to do!!!!)!!!

It's wonderful to see a sentimental, funny, Christmas film with romance, Santa, elves and reindeer. For a change Christmas wasn't marginalized. In a way, it is reminiscent of "Miracle on 42nd Street". A perfect holiday movie for young and old alike. Great family experience. Loved the music. Actors Steve Basic and Josh Hayden's performance were touching. A great duo. The dog was funny-especially in the street hockey game. And Rudolph- I can't remember seeing him in a movie for a long time.Gabrielle was a bit harsh as a character, but in a typical Scrooge tradition. Inspiring message. Look forward to seeing it every year!
