Santa's Dog

I enjoyed watching this movie with my 5 year old, and he just loved it. I was a great feel good Christmas movie and we really did enjoy it, especially liked seeing Mackenzie Phillips as the role of Helen Dunn and really enjoyed seeing Danny Arroyo who played Rick, these seemed to be the two characters that really seemed to stand out for me thought the production. It is something that is a must watch if you have children, the message in the story is very heartfelt and meaningful for the spirit of Christmas. As far as animal Christmas movie's go and we know how many there are during this time of year, I would safely recommend this one for sure, you will not be disappointed.

This really is a poorly acted and executed movie. I hate to say that, but that's my take on it. But here's the thing, my young son LOVES it! It's one of his favorites. It hurts me to watch, but he would watch it over and over and over. So if you're looking for a silly, lighthearted movie that kids will like, this could be the one.

IF, however, you're looking for fine acting, great special effects, nuanced directing, a evocative script, or any other good characteristics of movies for adults, you will not find them. Sorry. But your kids might really enjoy it. It's like a bad cartoon on Saturday morning: "Do you REALLY like this?" as their giggling themselves silly on the couch.

I wanted to like it, but the film is poorly made. The actors don't seem to have any direction. Was there even a script? Was there a director on the set? The movie starts out being about "naughty and nice list" and then that gets dropped. Then the star Hercules is hardly ever seen. The voice for the dog is terrible. I see a lot of praise for the movie on this board but that seems to be mostly family and friends of the cast. If anyone sees the film, you will realize how bad it is. Santa was good. The girlfriend was good. But the rest are forgettable. Too bad. We need some good holiday films. But this is definitely not one. Keep away from this one! You read all the reviews on this movie but by watching the film itself, you will realize who is telling the truth.

Hercules Saves Christmas is a great family movie. It's a modern day version of Scrooge. All the characters were great. The actor who portrayed Rick Wilder was outstanding. Handsome as well I might add. Was nice to see a young man play the role of Scrooge as opposed to an older man. Hope to see him in more movies in the near future. Hercules also did an outstanding role as well as the rest of the characters. Good Family and Christmas Movie!! Highly Recommended. All the characters performed well. Great movie for the young kids to watch. Teaches a lesson of love, giving and sharing. Would watch it again if it's repeated.

Oh my sweet lord. This movie is terrible. I like the show pit boss so I thought I would give this movie a try. I like cheesy TV shows and movies but this was below even that. The acting is terrible. THe lead role reminded me of an 8th grade play.Actually the whole movie reminded me of an 8th grade play.Last but not least. SHorty doing the voice over for Hercules was just disgusting. NOt everyone can do voice over and you do need some acting skills to do it. His vocal tone stayed the same no matter what situation. No excitement at all.It sounded like shorty was doing the voice over in the bathroom. I warn all of the people in this world. Do not watch unless your half asleep. I love Christmas movies but this is not one that I wish to share with my family.
