Todavía creo en Santa

There are some really great lines in this movie, a lot about faith in diversity of beliefs. Philosophy and love are the main topics here. All rolled into a Christmas movie about Santa.

A typical and predictable holiday movie with a few insights, but I really didn't care much for the lead male character. He was a bit over the top, but I suppose that was the intent, since I believe he was the writer and/or producer.

I won't watch again, but the few inspirational scenes regarding faith in Santa was obviously to be applied to life in general.

A good movie for kids as it seemed to be aimed towards the Mr. Rogers crowd.

I think the movie was watchable but ,somewhat corny .I had no idea the two lead actors are married in real life. I did not feel there was any chemistry between them and they seem somewhat awkward together . I've never Heard of either one of them. The movie is about a man that actually believes there is a Santa Claus. It's kind of cute and I was able to watch the whole thing without getting bored. I think it deserves at least a 5 or 6 star rating. I really wasn't expecting much and there was nothing else to watch. I did expect the lead actor, Tom , To hook up with his roommate, Assan. I think they got along better together. Watch this without any high expectations and you may enjoy it.

The movie was fun, although, a very Hallmark channel type of movie. C'mon, a working girl meets a guy really into Christmas, never done before! (/s) And it was rather predictable, since the scene where Lisa's daughter (who's name I definitely remember /s) gets lost I pretty much predicted the whole movie. The acting was weak,certain parts were very corny, and (no offence), Lisa's eyes annoyed me.

Now's the part where i'll discard all of the problems and full-heartedly defend this movie! The idea is like many Hallmark Christmas movies, but more over the top. And people say that this movie is unrealistic and the idea is stupid, and for that I have one word: So? This is a Christmas movie for gods sake! Who the hell is going to sit here and critically judge a CHRISTMAS movie for crying out loud? The idea is fun and that's whats the only thing that matters in a Christmas movie. Christmas needs to be cheerful, heart-warming, not serious.

I rest my case.

I agree with the reviewers who felt the male lead was better suited to his male friend! I could not believe him and the female at all as a couple and then read on and find they are married in real life. What?!

I will say this was reasonably entertaining for a Xmas movie. Maybe because he was kind of creepy going on about Santa, his expressions and some of the clothing choices that made him seem like a big baby! It was like watching a car crash. I do think they were channeling Buddy the Elf here. I'm sorry, I would laugh my head off if I was dating a guy who behaved like that (and then run). This guy seems like he's got some mental issues.

Acting is very wooden, but I've certainly seen worse Xmas movies.

Like a lot of other reviewers, I found the love story hard to buy. Like one other reviewer I saw, I was pretty convinced that the actual couple was Tom and Assan.

BUT, I love seeing a love of doing all of the holiday things with kids. This movie caught all of the family rituals of Christmas without being overbearing and just stressful like it was depicted in Bad Mom's Christmas. There was a joy in sharing all of those rituals with the kid that made it believable.

In the end, I really liked the message of the movie. I liked all of the reasons to believe and all of the reasons not to steal that from your children. For me, this movie was all about Ella, the little girl even though she was supposed to be playing the minor role.

I couldn't buy the love story--my apologies to the married actors. But, I didn't need to in order to buy into the powerful Christmas message of this movie. I was prepared to hate it and was pleasantly surprised.
