Vashirdfel Simply A Masterpiece

Dynamixor The performances transcend the film's tropes, grounding it in characters that feel more complete than this subgenre often produces.

Fatma Suarez The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful

Rosie Searle It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.

Christmas-Reviewer BEWARE OF FALSE REVIEWS & REVIEWERS. SOME REVIEWERS HAVE ONLY ONE REVIEW TO THEIR NAME. NOW WHEN ITS A POSITIVE REVIEW THAT TELLS ME THEY WERE INVOLVED WITH THE MOVIE. IF ITS A NEGATIVE REVIEW THEN THEY MIGHT HAVE A GRUDGE AGAINST THE FILM . I HAVE REVIEWED OVER 200 HOLIDAY FILMS. I HAVE NO AGENDA.If your child recently lost a parent or grandparent then keep this film away from them. If your child has lost a pet then keep them away from this. If you are GAY you will hate this film because there is gay reference/joke that Holly says to Nick and he seems offended that she would think he was gay. This is insulting to me as a gay men. If you are over 12 chances are you have seem this story done 10 x better in 10 other films that have a similar plot. In this film a woman meets her next door neighbor and they are not off to a good start. She argues with him twice in one night and then next she sees that he is the new hire at her days toy store company! Now this woman is a recent widow. Her son misses his dad and soon the family dog gets very ill. The son however seems to get out of his funk when he thinks the new neighbor/moms co-worker is Santa Claus.I think the film would of been better had Gabrielle Carteris not played her role as a stark raving witch. Yes makes for a good transformation but she is so nasty through most of the film. Most viewers will have CHANGED THE CHANNEL by the time she comes around. I do however love the man who plays Nick. His part is to be sweet to her sour but there is no chemistry between the leads. Steve Bacic however was a delight and saves this film from being a complete waist of time. This film is part of the LIFETIME 12 FILMS OF Christmas DVD PACK. This is the least enjoyable one. I have seen about 95-100 Christmas films in the past 2 years. This is near the bottom.

kogrone The main gal Gabrielle was too old for the lead - The gay playing Kris (Santa) looks 10 years younger but is great in the role. The boy playing Ben looks way to old to be believing in Santa - He looks 12 but is treated like he is 7 - SO ANNOYING! He's also bad in the role.It was a disappointment in many ways. The story line was sweet... Just to bad whoever casted this show didn't do a better job. The Elves were great, whoever played the dad was great and the gal in the supporting role was adorable. I would have preferred her in the lead.It's best if you find something else to watch this Christmas. There are quite a few new shows out there.

asloan-2 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!!!!)!!!

lmtrutt This movie was very heart warming and I think Steve Bacic is fantastic actor and hope he will get more good parts like this and become more well known. Wonderful movie for the holiday season. Loved everything about this movie but especially Steve Bacic. Enjoyed the elves playing around. Seeing Raindeer in a movie again especially Rudolph. This movie is one that the whole family will love and enjoy for years to come. The dog was also a great part in the movie. Some scenes were very touching and some made me laugh. I totally recommend this movie for one and all!More movies of this type need to be made! Enjoyed the wild colored clothes that were worn by Steve Bacic but especially the Santa outfit. It made me believe in miracles again!
