Elf man truly surpasses any movie I've ever watched. When I was forced into watching this five years ago, I had low expectations, but I never expected it to become my favorite movie. I haven't watched it in about five years, but as I remember, the actor playing Ryan was truly amazing. I hope he's doing big things now! I think I saw him in a Geico commercial a few years back. Impressive!

Bursting at the seems with every imaginable trope and cliché, this film will entertain parts of you that you didn't know existed. With a weak plot and worse acting, this movie proves to be so terrible that it's hilarious. It brings countless new treasures to the Christmas movie genre, from the magically alive fruitcake to the power of mistletoe (hint: it's not what you expect). In an unprecedented mash-up of Christmas magic and superhero action, Elf-Man provides an cinematic experience like no other. This film is sure to join our family's list of traditional Christmas films, and to be enjoyed every year with a stiff glass of eggnog and countless bouts of laughter.A word of warning: at a few unfortunate points, the movie does have some intentional comedic moments. Simply grimace at these and move on to laugh at the rest of the film.

The movie had premise based on a half-baked plot but the acting on "wee- man's" part is absolutely horrible. Completely obvious he's lost interest in his own character and the movie altogether by the halfway mark. Poor directors can only do so much with what they're given. Fans of Jason Acuna should stick with the Jackass series and look for nothing else of interest out of this guy. Every actor in the movie outshines "Wee-Man" by an enormous amount. The kids in the movie deserve an Oscar in comparison to Jason's acting. This movie is not worth the time it takes to watch it. Children of younger ages might enjoy Elf-Man but I strongly suggest passing this one over in lieu of just about anything else to watch.

I must say that "Elf-Man" was actually twice of a surprise for me.First of all, I hadn't expected the movie to actually be as good as it was. It was honestly a wholesome and great family movie for the Christmas time, much in the likes of "Home Alone".Secondly, and most importantly for me, was that Jeffrey Combs was in it. I hadn't picked up on that before I was watched the names billed in the intro of the movie. So that was a nice surprise, and somewhat interesting to see him in this kind of movie, and not only in the usual horror movies that he is mostly known for. Always great to see an actor (or actress) diversify and spread out into other genres.The story in "Elf-Man" is about a family whose Christmas is not looking all too bright, when further tragedy strikes as the father (played by Mackenzie Astin) is kidnapped by three criminals (played by Jeffrey Combs, Dave Coyne and Larry Nichols) who wants to steal the chip that produces electricity that he produced. His children, Kasey (played by Carly Robell) and Ryan (played by Blake Kaiser) is looked after by their grandmother (played by Marty Terry) when Kasey makes a wish upon an old elf figurine. As Christmas is the time of miracles, her wish comes true, and an elf (played by Jason 'Wee Man' Acuña) appears to help the family restore the Yule tide peace.For a family movie, then "Elf-Man" is quite entertaining, especially if you were amongst the ones who enjoyed the "Home Alone" movies. There is laughter, love, hope, magic and 'danger' all to be had in this movie (of course, on a level where kids can enjoy it). And it is also a movie that tells the story of the value of family, love and the special time of the Christmas time.So for a family with children, then "Elf-Man" does have potential to become a returning movie on the watch list during the Christmas time.
