    " I tried to tell you when you were on the phone with Santa!"

    E For Effort . I thought the Director forgot it was just a movie and was trying to make you think they thought it was real. The way they tied up the loose ends was too much. Before that, going over and over the premise with the kid and Santa was boring. It would have bored one kid actor to pieces. Good thing they had two to work with. The worst part was that the parents were just too clueless. Even the Grandfather was. They were smart enough to make up their tedious side of the story but: try to really understand the kid's problems! Sure that was the point of the movie, a misunderstanding, but it went to far too many times. Anyways, it's just another Modern Christmas Story. Anything beats the old cartoons. Happy Holidays From MICHIGAN.

    Mediocre but will pass the time on a wintry evening

    This made-for-TV film centres around a little boy Justin who witnesses his father, clad in a Santa Claus suit, kissing his mother. Fuelled by his best friend's worries over his recently separated parents, Justin jumps to the conclusion that his mother is having an affair with Santa. So, Justin decides to behave as badly as possible in an attempt to prevent Santa coming to his house on Christmas Eve night lest he make off with the boy's mother.

    Dylan and Cole Sprouse, the child actors who share the role of Justin, are wooden on occasion but deliver a passable performance. This is a rather predictable, mediocre film and will hardly be a contender for any awards but it's enjoyable enough to pass time on a quiet December evening. I wouldn't really recommend this film for very young children though as they might be confused with why Justin is beating up Santa!

    Ben from Friends takes on Santa!

    I should have known when I saw that this film had the youthful Sprouse brothers in it that it would probably not be one for me. It is very childish and silly. As with other films, I tried to get through it in the hopes that the message at the end might be sweet and heart-warming, but it was just not my cup of tea.

    I was never going to enjoy a film about a kid who starts pulling pranks to get Santa's attention, but I tried it just in case.

    Unrated as unfinished.

    This is all you need to know about this movie.

    This is what really happened when "I Saw Mommy Kissing Santa Claus."It sums it up in about 3 minutes and is absolutely hilarious. Skip the movie and watch this instead.

    Instead of a heart warming tale told best by ABC Family, we get the real account of a little boy who wanders downstairs Christmas Eve and finds his mother and Santa Claus. The little boy decides to run upstairs and tell Dad and then things go down hill from there. Honestly watch this, it is great. Not to mention it saves you about 2 hours that you would spend watching this poor excuse of a film.
