    This is made for the Santa Believers

    This film works for young children. Adults will be bored but its not made for you. In this film a young man discovers that Santa's village may not be in the North Pole.

    The acting is fine the special effects are not great but the story works and at the end of the day that is what counts. Family safe. You will smile at the end if you give it a fare chance!

    Incredible bad

    I don't know where to start. There's so many wrong things with this movie.

    The worst Christmas movie EVER.

    Everything is forced.

    The characters, the situations, the plot.

    A woman meets a man and someone puts a mistletoe above their heads and almost forced her to kiss him!? WTF?!

    The kid is SO rude!

    I didn't like it at all and I LOVE Christmas movies!!

    Of course they end up together!

    Nothing is believable.

    Low budget but that's not an excuse for the bad script, acting, photography, music and so many etceteras.

    It's a pity, because it ruins the spirit of Christmas.

    Please don't watch it. It's a waste of time.

    Reindeer

    I didn't get a chance to watch the whole movie but from what I saw was good. What I wanted to say is where I live, there is a lake in our town called Allouette Lake that everyone knows about and has been too. When i was on my way down to the boat launch at the beginning of the summer this year, we were stopped due to a movie being filmed. When we asked the traffic control officer what was going on they told us they are shooting a Christmas movie and there is a reindeer up in the bushes. So, at the point in the movie when they are in the car driving down the road and eventually stop because the kid see's something in the bush, that is the Allouette Lake boat launch. About a 2 minute walk from where they stop on either side are just a bunch of people from my town waiting to either launch their boat or pick one up!

    Pretentious

    Poor boy. Mom has to drive a &60,000 Mercedes-Benz SUV. He lives in a $1 million home. But Mom is too busy to get him a haircut and, as a result, he has a serious discipline problem. Dad is a COOK (gasp, how low can you go?). Do you know how that makes the millions of people who cook for a living feel? This is the kind of crap Hollywood has churned out to insult and humiliate "middle America". No wonder that hate us in Kansas.

    Lackluster movie

    There are blatant hints from when they first hit the town that the real Santa has his workshop and base of operations here. From that point on it's a race for the kid to get real proof and more importantly for Mom to believe. Throughout all this there is an unimpressive romance brewing between Mom and Kevin.

    A movie like this has little story and it's pointless to judge the acting because that doesn't really matter. There are some low-key funny moments which probably appeal more to a young audience.
