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.In this film Drake Hunter, the president of Hunter Marketing, has the perfect plan to boost sales for his father\'s toy company over the holiday season—hire department store Santas to promote his father\'s merchandise. When the real Santa Claus turns Drake into a Santa lookalike, Drake finds himself working as a dress-up Kris Kringle to make ends meet. Stripped of power and position, Drake discovers the importance of honesty, compassion, and respect.Now the flaws with this film is numerous. The production itself is the main problem. You can tell its fake snow. Out of camera range there is not snow. There is a scene where someone runs down the street. Then when she turns the corner its nighttime. As for the film itself? Well it works. However barely. Kevin Sorbo is only saved because the people around him are much better actors. There is a few minor surprises here and there but in general it is very predictable. However the film works. If you like Christmas films you will enjoy this. I did.

I actually hate this movie! I don't think it could have been made more dull, drab, annoying, and tiresome: the plot, the actor, the lines, everything.......Just one humdrum scene flowed into another. Nothing enticing, nothing captivating, nothing cheerful about this "Christmas" movie. It actually gave a sense of depression!To TRY to watch it one time without getting bored out of my wits by the first half hour was difficult enough, but to watch it a second time, is cruelty to the mind! And I began to hate it because it is aired ad nauseum!...while Hallmark has so much better Christams movies that could have been aired. It did have one great part though, thankfully: "The End."

What an absolute brilliant Christmas movie. This is 1 of the best one's I've seen. Surprised this was not a big hit I have seen some Christmas films but this as to be one of the best. I was almost crying a few times it really put me in the Christmas spirit a great feel good movie. Cheered me right up a must watch at the festive time.What an absolute brilliant Christmas movie.

This is one of the best Christmas movies I have seen in a long time. It tells the story of Drake Hunter, a Scrooge CEO who learns a lesson about the Christmas spirit when he is magically transformed into a Santa lookalike. Kevin Sorbo gives an outstanding performance as Drake,showing him first as a jerk thinking only of himself,then as a gentle soul full of love & compassion for everyone,including the social worker who wins his heart without knowing it.I have seen many takes on Scrooge,and this one is my favorite as it shows Scrooge(in this case,Drake)learning to find his inner Santa. If you want to watch something sweet with your family this holiday,this is the movie to see! You will love it!
