Elfette Saves Christmas

I wasn't going to write a review because it wasn't worth my time but then I got to the end and thought people needed to know. It's horrifically ridiculous which I thought would be ok for kids (which I usually like) but then they used the B word close to the end and they show more clips during the credits, and the last clip is very inappropriate. The movie was full of ridiculous, randomness, and for what reason she had to drive and take several days to get to her very life-threatening important task is completely unknown. She takes her own sweet time, trying to make the deadline to save Christmas.

Honestly the plot is so stupid.. the NEW YORK MAFIA kidnaps Santa. This feels like a low budget version of elf. I know it's a kids movie but it doesn't make sense

I love Christmas movies. Even "bad" ones, but this was the worst of the worst. Bad acting and a terrible story. The end credit scenes were the best part.

Terrible writing, terrible scene placement, not sure if the acting or directing was the issue. Also who points their beach chairs sideways, even the people in the background at the beach were pointed the sideways instead of toward the water. If this was a high school project, I do apologize for my criticism.

I actually felt badly for not liking the movie, but I wasn't alone. My husband and daughter expressed the same sentiment.

We were waiting for it to get better, but that didn't happen.

I don't know why this needs to be longer to leave this rvw.

With Christmas just around the corner, the holiday movies are starting to pile up. I sat down to watch the 2019 "Elfette Saves Christmas" without really much of any expectations or hopes for the movie.

Why? Well, usually Christmas movies tend to be sappy and all much alike. But every now and again is there something that stands out as being a classic or actually as an entertaining holiday movie.

So was "Elfette Saves Christmas" such a movie? No. Not even by a long shot. And it felt like writers Christian Cashmir and Brielle Carter were aiming a bit too much off target, because the movie didn't really have any particular jolly holiday feel to it.

The storyline in this movie was just too boring and mundane, with parts of it being just downright idiotic. And director Christian Cashmir was just trying to make the movie a bit too politically correct with some parts of the movie, which ended up being ridiculous instead.

As for the acting in the movie, well, taking into consideration the limitation of the script and characters, then the actors and actresses weren't really doing all too badly for themselves. However, keep in mind that this is not going to have you in for a Shakespearian experience in any way.

This movie didn't captivate me, although I did manage to sit through the entire movie. And it was totally and fully lacking that special Christmas feeling that is required to make it a proper holiday movie. So this is not going to be a Christmas classic, nor will it be a movie that I will be returning to a second time.

My rating of "Elfette Saves Christmas" is a four out of ten stars. Watchable yes, but not overly entertaining, and definitely not a Christmas classic.
