Cancel Christmas (2011)

i must have seen a different film!!

Best movie ever!

Absolutely Fantastic

This movie tries so hard to be funny, yet it falls flat every time. Just another example of recycled ideas repackaged with women in an attempt to appeal to a certain audience.

This one is supposed to be silly and goofy. It comes complete with an elf that giggles in a high-pitched voice. Many of the characters start out with stereotype personalities, like the mean kids, and the principal, and the absent, mega-rich father.It also has that Hallmark over-the-top miraculous finish, but we expected that. I like the plan Santa used to reform the three kids. Once you say what it was, it was pretty clear how things were going to end up.I have trouble evaluating acting when things are so goofy or exaggerated, but it seemed like they all did what they were intended to do.This one will probably be best enjoyed by the young, or at least young-at-heart.

BEWARE OF FALSE REVIEWS & REVIEWERS. SOME REVIEWERS HAVE ONLY ONE REVIEW TO THEIR NAME. NOW WHEN ITS A POSITIVE REVIEW THAT TELLS ME THEY WERE INVOLVED WITH THE MOVIE. IF ITS A NEGATIVE REVIEW THEN THEY MIGHT HAVE A GRUDGE AGAINST THE FILM . I HAVE REVIEWED OVER 200 HOLIDAY FILMS. I HAVE NO AGENDA.The North pole board of directors have been monitoring the world's children and they do not like what they see. So they summon their Boards President to inform Santa of their results from their investigation. The President tells Santa (Judd Nelson) that children have become too selfish and greedy, the board of directors gives him a month to teach two boys the meaning of giving, or else the holiday will be canceled forever. Santa and a trusty elf set off to save Christmas. The main problem with this film is that there is too many stories and not the film would have been better served had they cut one of the stories or made a slightly longer film. The performances range from a to z. This is worth watching once. The younger you are the more you will enjoy this. However keep in mind there is some very heavy moments in this film that deals with the loss of a parent. That may bother some young children.

This movie was painfully creepy to watch. The plot was typical of a Christmas movie and had potential to be a good movie. But it was poorly written and executed.Santa and his Elf came off as very creepy. Like the kind of creepy in which you wouldn't let your children within 1000 feet of them. This was one of the worse portrayals of Santa and an elf I've ever seen.I didn't like Santa and I didn't like the elf. And i should like these characters, but i didn't.I tried to like them but couldn't even force myself to like them. I wanted Santa to fail( and go to jail for something cause i really felt like that's where him and his creepy elf belonged.) This movie is a waste of time unless you like watching bad movies.

Wonderful movie. The kind you what to watch more than once. There are a lot of Christmas movies this time of year and I beginning to think that they were all shot out of the back of a moving van for $2.50, it is nice to see one that looks like some time and effort was put into it. With so many families stretched and stressed the message that this movie sends is a nice one making it well suited for all members of the family. I had never thought of Judd Nelson as "Santa" but he did a good job, it works and I love the elf - which proves that elfs come in all sizes because this one isn't typical but is fun. Anyone wanting to see a light fun heart warming holiday movie should definitely take at look at this one. Well done.
