Qualcuno salvi il Natale 2

I like the first movie, but The Christmas Chronicles 2 seems like a slapped-together sequel. The writing is lazy and tries to cram in as much exposition as possible in every line to hurry the muddled story along. The characters don't talk or react like normal people would. The villain is also very weak. I'm not quite sure why they cast Julian Dennison as Belsnickel. There is some magic in The Christmas Chronicles 2, but I expected more from Chris Columbus.

Oh dear. The first CC was charming, funny, and fun. This one isn't. It's total hokum, with some of the worst acting, scripting and direction I've seen in a long time. And possibly the lamest bad guy any movie has ever had. Ever. Seriously, he's completely pointless. And everything else... well you get the idea.

I think people are thinking too much into the first film. This is a great family Christmas film. Kurt Russel has done it again with playing an outstanding role of Santa Claus.

Really liked the original but struggled through this one.

This movie is pretty lame... no believable writing or characters. The actor who plays Belsnickel plays literally the EXACT same role he did in a Deadpool 2: a jealous and spiteful New Zealander who tries to get revenge on the person he once loved.

The first movie had character development... in this sequel, they're just lifeless actors spouting off lines.
