    Woeful.

    This shouldn't have ratings. I won't judge for the low budget there are worser Christmas movies. But very fact throughout the movie the scenes were so poorly planned, the plot didn't make for good viewing, the movie had a lack of organisation and the dialect is awful I just cant believe just how had this was.

    Surely a line has to be drawn when seasonal films are being replaced now with this type of purely written rubbish. Not forgetting this film ideally is meant for the younger generation and even though the cookie scene and the all silliness probably summed up this entire film, there is no way this would appeal enough or be appropriate to it's target audience.

    Silly comedy isn't a guarantee of a laugh out loud comedy. Look I'll give it to you straight, I understand why certain people would quite like this film as everyone is different, but a message to the cast and the creators this film was NOT good!

    Cute...

    Very cute, that Christmas-themed afternoon session that we love to watch at Christmas time, just not, hehehe, but captivating, entertaining, spreading magic and hope, cute...

    Hilarious and horrifying, and not in a good way.

    We took the kids to free movie night at the local theatre where this movie was playing. We couldn't find any reviews on it prior to going and didn't know what to expect. We bought our snacks and settled in for a fun and wholesome family Christmas movie. We were surprised by this movie to say the least. The elves were deranged, and the special effects were what I'm going to assume it's like to have "a bad trip" on drugs. The adults couldn't quit laughing and the kids were stunned silent the whole movie. At the end the general consensus from the kids was that it was "the worst movie ever! Does Santa really do that to bad elves?!" And "that was terrifying!" This movie would frighten younger children for sure. It was memorable, I'll give you that.

    Did not enjoy this. The music is dreadful and mind numbing...
