Plain harmless fun

Okay the acting isn't the best but it is made-for-TV. Hallmark style, Santa gets grounded, kids come to the rescue, baddie homeland defense guys are looking for him, and one big scary guy is tracking him, for we don't know what reason. Hide, chase and finally Santa is away safe, and all ends well. Suitable for all family if you don't mind explaining some of it to the wee ones as to how Santa can get knocked out of the sky, or come up befuddled on the ground. It explains it all, but you might want to add you own spin so your children will understand that Santa ALWAYS comes through no matter what the conditions might be. I enjoyed watching the bumbling Homeland Defense guys, kind of like Maxwell Smart or an Inspector Clouseau....

Good

I surely don't understand all the bad reviews on this really good Christmas movie. Yes the federal agents were stupid but hey it is just a movie. Yes I recommend it. James Welch Henderson Arkansas 11/12/2021.

Pretty dismal holiday fare

With a Hallmark Christmas movie, you pretty much know going in a lot of the plot elements - a bit of romance, some misunderstandings, the children are precocious and usually quite nice but if not, reformable, and the ending is preordained. TSI follows the pattern but compared to most other Hallmark movies, doesn't manage to creep up to the "average" bar. There really isn't much chemistry between anyone, the Keystone Cop element falls flat, and in a surprise to me in a movie aimed at the younger set, not only are guns pulled but the Feds even threaten children. That last is really odd for a Hallmark movie.

When Hallmark is in the Christmas spirit, there are multiple channels in play so flip past this one and hit one of their other shows. It has to be better.

I'm 50-50 !

Dunno what to make of this film - it's between good and bad !

The bad - James Cosmo and THAT American accent and the awful over-acting of Greg Germann !

The good ? - the parodying of the standard reaction of the American 'defence system' - anything they don't know about that frightens/intrigues them - MUST BE RUSSIAN !

Overall, it's NOT the worst of the Christmas films !

Keystone cops meet Santa

When the movie begins with what is clearly Santa with his reindeer getting shot down by an American fighter, you figure there isn't going to be much reality in this one. But it gets worse as the Keystone Cops chase what is presented as a real Santa with a lot of magic. It is probably a movie aimed at kids, although there is a scene where the Homeland Security guy threatens two innocent children.

I wish I could say that the acting was tolerable, but the two children were the only ones close to decent acting. Greg Germann was over the top evil and insane as the head agent.

I don't think I would recommend this one for any age.

Gaffes
As Sophia is filmed walking through the warehouse area to their play area, she has a pink top and skirt with a purple vest. When she enters the play area, the hot pink is gone and replaced with purple skirt and top. (The pink one appears to be the same outfit as she wears on a later day, so it may be a shot from then.)
