Beau-père Noël

The main draw of this TV movie is really the fact that 'Cheers' stars Shelley Long and George Wendt reunite in it.

But actually this is worth watching without that detail, because a decent story is being told. Yes, it's a little predictable, and it's certainly more than a little cheesy, but it's well meaning, and hey- it's a Christmas film.

I enjoyed this far more than I thought I would, and that's because of the performances that were given by the actors, who try their best to rise above the sentiment that can sometimes clog films like this.

If you're in need of a 'Cheers' reunion, this could be the place to go.

This was cute, funny, and a nice romance. It was interesting to see Lucas Bryant in a more light=hearted role. Lately he has been playing the sullen, strong, silent type. Shelly Long was way over the top in my opinion, but I couldn't help laughing. Also there were a few truly badly behaved, even hateful characters in this one which added some tension to the comedy.

Acting quality: 0/10. The female lead is fairly skilled but each other actor did horrific. Worse acting skills than a school play

Script: 0/10. Extremely cheesy, ruins the generally accepted story of Santa, absolute garbage.

Editing: 0/10. This movie looks like it was edited on iMovie.

The horrible effects, random outbursts of terrible singing, and middle aged, beardless Santa wrap this movie up like into the worst Christmas movie I have ever witnessed. Whoever filmed this movie needs to go back to college because the angles, the ANGLES, are horrible. Anyone with good taste in movies would agree with me.

It's just plain good old new fashioned Christmas hokum. Don't start this movie with any preconceived notions. I did--and it wasn't a good idea. Allow the fun of a Christmas fantasy to take you out even just for a little while into a world of real make believe. Don't make of it something that it never intended to be in the first place. BUT, if you are uncertain of your ability to separate reality from fantasity, you probably ought not watch this. But if you can, there will be more than a few moments of amusement--no great belly laffs but a lot of fun nevertheless.

This film is a delight. Shelley Long Reunites with her "Cheers" co- star George Wendt in this Christmas Theme Film. What is perfect is that they play Mr & Mrs Santa Claus.

There is something so special about a "Santa Claus" theme that I will be a huge sucker for.

This is an above average TV-Movie. In this film: A recently engaged woman plans a get-together so her parents can meet her fiancé's family. It turns out that his parents are Mr. and Mrs. Claus.

Lots of fun and has a pure heart. Family safe. Bake some cookies and watch together.
