Bah Humbug, I wanted this to be a great … First, it has some brilliant sets, the North Pole thing is brilliant, and is matched by the talent (Paul Giamatti, Vince Vaughn, Rachel Weisz), unfortunately what is not is a big bag of laughs. This raises a chuckle from time to time, but never sets an atmosphere and gets too bogged down in infighting in the law and forcing ‘nicey bits’ to make it really acceptable for young or old.
Just do not feel Christmas, and that is not what you want from a Christmas movie? Even the youngest in our selection seems baffled and bored halfway and seemed to catch on that this was a bit artificial even considering the issue.
Add to nearly everyone acts as if it might be too preoccupied with all this (I’ve seen him do worset Vaughan or Giamatti, should ring their agents in Ho Ho hopes to lead a better film next time). Hey, I do not want this sled-T too, but you can be sure there are better, I can not recommend this too, in fact I’m going to see Grinch to encourage me.
