I love Christmas Movie but I got bored with this Movie and I just wanted it to end. I think that I've seen a lot of Movie with the same plot as this one. Which made it a bit more boring for me, It was slow pasted, and I didn't like the acting. I found its more of an adults Movie as we don't really see much of Ben. And it did talk about inappropriate things so its not really a family Movie, and I wasn't a fan of the music that was used. I just kept waiting for something to really happen and there just wasn't any character development. The boy playing Ben looked to old for the role and the Movie had gay jokes which I didn't like and was not funny.
it covers things like death of a family member, which I think should be more talked about in movies and books but I don't think its a good Movie to watch if you have lost a family or a dog though I really liked The dog, the dog was funny-especially in a street hockey game But didn't have much scene time. :(

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.

I love Christmas movies and I think I have a lot of tolerance for corniness, questionable acting, etc., but this movie had me fast-forwarding through scenes halfway through because I got bored and just wanted it to finish.... and I just knew I wasn't going to miss anything. The premise was cute but I kept waiting for something to really HAPPEN. Some of the shots between scenes seemed drawn out like they were just trying to fill time. I thought the character development was non-existent and I couldn't get emotionally involved with any of the characters. And for some reason the boy seemed a little too old for the part. I wouldn't recommend this one to anyone.

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!!!!)!!!
