    Big guy, red suit and a beard...what's his name again...?

    The afternoon TV schedules seem to clog up from mid-November on with usually made- for-TV Christmas movies. This one I found a pleasant enough watch, even if Leslie Nielsen in switching from an airplane to a sleigh, isn't the first person I'd think of to play Santa Clause. The story's formulaic enough, with an orphan kid growing up to be a festive curmudgeon, even in his day job as a roving TV reporter on the look out for happy, "and we end tonight with..." stories. Because Santa apparently ignored his childhood letter asking him for a family, he won't commit to his pretty co-worker single-parent girl-friend and her young son.

    However when old Santa falls out of his sleigh right on top of his car, gaining amnesia in the process, from there you can pretty much predict the minor twists and turns in the plot before the expected happy ending shows up. There's a sub-plot of a fairly eccentric bunch of elves trying to track down their boss in time for the Christmas deliveries, but the main fun is how humbug Peter re-connects with his inner child and in so doing makes things right in his private life.

    The lead boy and girl are nice enough in their lovey-dovey parts and even the kid playing the young son holds back the sentimental-come-smart-aleck routine so commonplace with child actors in films like this. Neilson tries reasonably hard but with little in the way of comedic lines to deliver, comes across almost anonymously, especially hidden under a bulked up Santa costume and of course snow-white beard. You almost think it's a contract stipulation when he loses his beard for a time late on just so you can see it's really him.

    The effects are okay and there are lots of nice Christmas decorations in the background to push home the festive feel-good factor.

    Like I said, the film was pleasant, undemanding seasonal entertainment. Half way through there's a mini roll-call of Christmas classics like "It's A Wonderful Life" and "Miracle on 34th Street". "Santa Who" is well below the quality of those two evergreens, but its heart is in the right place and from where I was sitting filled up this particular spot in the schedule well enough.

    Santa Who? Is a fun comedic addition to the Christmas genre that I highly recommend

    I recently watched Santa Who? (2000) on Tubi with my daughter. The plot follows Santa, who falls out of his sleigh and develops amnesia just before the holidays. Convinced he's the real Santa Claus, some kids try to help him regain his memory.

    Directed by William Dear (Harry and the Henderson) and starring Leslie Nielsen (The Naked Gun), Steven Eckholdt (The Wraith), Robyn Lively (Karate Kid III), Tommy Davidson (In Living Color), and Max Morrow (The Russell Girl).

    The movie is overall is straightforward and predictable. However, watching Leslie Nielsen is always enjoyable, and Davidson delivers a tremendous supporting performance. The film includes a few entertaining comedic sequences and one-liners, with the security guard scene being particularly hilarious.

    In conclusion, Santa Who? Is a fun comedic addition to the Christmas genre that I highly recommend. I'd give it a score of 6/10.

    Hilarious

    I love the TV-movie "Santa Who?" It is such a classic. One reason is Leslie Nielsen, who plays the one-and-only Santa Claus.

    Peter Albright (Steven Eckholdt) is another highlight.

    Everything is to love about this film. That is why I enjoy it.

    A wonderful Christmas movie!

    This is a heart-warming Christmas movie for the entire family. Leslie Nielsen is terrific as Santa Claus. He is both engaging and benevolent as the jolly St. Nicholas. Tommy Davidson steals the scenes as the task-master elf...some of the best scenes in the movie. The movie itself is colorful and fun to watch. A charming spin on Christmas with an amnesiac Santa. The story is simple and predictable, but still is a joy to watch from beginning to end. Take my advice and set your clock back to eight years old, and just settle in on a cold winter's day and watch this movie...it will bring the spirit of Christmas back to you. Thumbs up!

    Mildly enjoyable

    I would love to see a documentary exploring candid opinions in the film industry of holiday flicks. What do actors, writers, directors, set decorators, costume designers, and everyone else think about a genre which from one movie to another, from one year to another, trades on the exact same themes, ideas, and aesthetics? No matter how the details might change, the primary thrust hardly does; are such titles considered a rite of passage, or an obligation, or an easy paycheck, or do folks earnestly enjoy making cookie cutter Christmas fare? Is there ever a point where the hard work and commitment that one makes for any such flick is less than what is borne out in any non-holiday flick? Well, in this instance, I think we have a fair answer for at least that last question. A line given to Leslie Nielsen in the first scene where we meet Santa seems all too appropriate as Jolly Old Saint Nick opines that "The people go through the motions but the spirit isn't there, the magic is gone." I don't know what concatenation of circumstances led to this precise iteration of 'Santa who?' - but while it's not bad, nor does it inspire as anything that one ever needs to specifically seek out.

    We get all the expected themes about the meaning of Christmas, childhood belief, family, gratitude, commercialism, and so on and so on. The actors act, the location scouts found filing locations, the art director created some festive visuals, the effects artists whipped up computer-generated imagery on par with other contemporary works, and so on and so on. In fairness, there is some definite cleverness here and there, and a few laughs to be had, among all the situational comedy, jokes, gags, and silliness. It's a credit to the screenwriters that there are some meaningful, thoughtful storytelling on hand, too, in the last act. At its best it's mildly enjoyable; at its worst, it's emptily ham-handed. Of course, one considerable issue facing this feature is that between those ends of the spectrum, the lion's share of these ninety minutes is something that we can safely "watch" without actively engaging, and without even necessarily keeping our eyes on the screen. The material could hardly be more light, fluffy, and tried and true - and defined by the logic of Movie Magic - and while the sum total is decent, there's also nothing so special about it as to necessitate viewing. We've seen this before, and we will again; there's nothing wrong with that, but also, so what?

    If you're looking for something uninvolved to put you in the "Christmas spirit," there are far worse ways to spend your time. Just don't raise your expectations or expect a revelation; save it for the holiday season, and that is surely the best way to get the most out of 'Santa who?'

      This film marks the second of three times where Leslie Nielsen played Santa Claus. The other two were in the film "All I Want for Christmas" (1991) and an episode of the animated TV series "Chilly Beach" (2003).

      When the police call the news reporter to tell them about the people who have been missing their grandfather for ten years, in the reporters close up when he starts to wonder if he is with the real Santa Claus, a Canada Post truck can be seen in the background, which should not be there, since the movie's set in the United States. However, this does make sense at the same time, because the movie was filmed in Toronto, Canada.
