Elfette Saves Christmas

I wasn't going to write a review because it wasn't worth my time but then I got to the end and thought people needed to know. It's horrifically ridiculous which I thought would be ok for kids (which I usually like) but then they used the B word close to the end and they show more clips during the credits, and the last clip is very inappropriate. The movie was full of ridiculous, randomness, and for what reason she had to drive and take several days to get to her very life-threatening important task is completely unknown. She takes her own sweet time, trying to make the deadline to save Christmas.

Normally off the wall Christmas movies are fun. This was the worst movie ever made. A pencil phone... Really???? Quinton Aaron must've burned through his " blind side" money to have to accept a part in this. The lines aren't bad but the acting is horrible. Elfette was only believable when she was crying. And the 10/10 review from Zachary Vazquez, because it was the first film he was in where he actually had lines, is pathetic.

The BEST ACTING In the movie was the scenes during and after the credits. Maybe because it was finally over.

With Christmas just around the corner, the holiday movies are starting to pile up. I sat down to watch the 2019 "Elfette Saves Christmas" without really much of any expectations or hopes for the movie.

Why? Well, usually Christmas movies tend to be sappy and all much alike. But every now and again is there something that stands out as being a classic or actually as an entertaining holiday movie.

So was "Elfette Saves Christmas" such a movie? No. Not even by a long shot. And it felt like writers Christian Cashmir and Brielle Carter were aiming a bit too much off target, because the movie didn't really have any particular jolly holiday feel to it.

The storyline in this movie was just too boring and mundane, with parts of it being just downright idiotic. And director Christian Cashmir was just trying to make the movie a bit too politically correct with some parts of the movie, which ended up being ridiculous instead.

As for the acting in the movie, well, taking into consideration the limitation of the script and characters, then the actors and actresses weren't really doing all too badly for themselves. However, keep in mind that this is not going to have you in for a Shakespearian experience in any way.

This movie didn't captivate me, although I did manage to sit through the entire movie. And it was totally and fully lacking that special Christmas feeling that is required to make it a proper holiday movie. So this is not going to be a Christmas classic, nor will it be a movie that I will be returning to a second time.

My rating of "Elfette Saves Christmas" is a four out of ten stars. Watchable yes, but not overly entertaining, and definitely not a Christmas classic.

Disappointing movie! I do like Christmas mobises and fun stories about Santa Claus or etc, but this is beyond all regrets seing. bad actors' play, bad dialogs, bad operator work... Just do not waste your time

This is a fun movie to get in the Christmas spirit while wrapping gifts for family. It's entertaining, and while it's not the highest budget or the most experienced actors, I think it's clear that the creators had a lot of fun making it.

It's also a bit of an enigma-- I'm genuinely not sure who the primary audience is. Is it a reimagining of a Christmas movie for adults, complete with assassins and, as one review points out, the b-word? Is it a goofy saccharine movie for kids about the spirit of Christmas and generosity? Is it an Elf knockoff? Is it FUN? Yes, yes, yes, and YES.

I really appreciated that they didn't do the typical romance plot, too. That was refreshing!

All in all, it's fun to have on in the background. I genuinely was pleasantly surprised by a lot of it. If you go in with the expectation that it's a low budget movie, you'll enjoy it.
