Prancer
Ignore the other reviews. My kids, 7 and 4 watched this video in our car dvd player. They became very upset when, in the first several minutes of the movie, one child explains to another child:
1. There is NO Santa Clause
2. How could Santa go down all the chimney’s in the world in 1 night, it’s not logical
3. There also is NO GOD
4. And NO HEAVEN
This becomes especially upsetting in the movie because the child who is being told this, sadly exclaims, “this(no heaven)can’t be true because what about my mom?” (Her mom is dead and the child had previously thought her mom was in Heaven.) This sad, upset child then tells the other child, “You are not my friend anymore.”
At this point, I ejected the movie from the DVD player. My kids were bewildered and upset.
Avoid this movie if you have young kids - they will be confused, upset, and it will make you sad too.
Hey, people. This is what I call a Christmas disapointment! For a 1987 film, it looks really old and the acting just isn’t very well. I would call it a B movie. I personally don’t like this movie, but everybody is different, so you might. So, watch, if you dare…
I bought this DVD because the cover looked nice and the plot sounded interesting. But despite the high quality of the actual picture, the cinematography was not quite what I’ve come to expect of in modern movies, and I thought the whole film could have used a healthy dose of editing. I had been looking forward to watching it with a friend, but we both lost interest within 20 minutes. I tried again later on my own, but didn’t make it much farther. Thankfully there was a minor glitch in the DVD menu, so I was able to persuade the store to take it back and let me get a different DVD.
If you’re really into Christmas movies, you might like this one, but if you’re used to the latest cinematography techniques, riveting plots, and DVD’s with all the extras, then you had better at least rent this one before you buy it.
