Why is this movie so dark? I couldn't see what was going on. Another dumb movie.
Decent story that could have been a good family movie, but it isn't. Not good enough to be anything else, though. Multiple times used profanity, showed several scenes with women wearing thong bikinis showing side boob. Definitely for older teens at minimum. Action was marvel-style, but even Marvel movies leave out the inappropriate language and gratuitous female body displays. It feels like it is intended to normalize these themes to pre-teens to further sink the culture.
Good family movie. I strongly suggest
My wife and I were watching this (to see if our kids could watch it too), and she said the same thing, I was thinking, this is different. She thought the kidnapper would be Jack Frost. Nope. Obvious hints to a mythical world series if sequels if they get the green light. If you don't go into it with expectations and just watch for fun, it does have a few laughs and some action. J.K. Simmons as Santa, I was like nummmm he doesn't look fat at all, then his workout scene we were like ohhhhhhh good for him. The Rock doesn't need to be all moody though.
Not really a kid's movie. Great special effects. I enjoyed it very much.
Don't believe the negative reviews. The movie was inventive and interesting. Not a bad Xmas movie. Better than all those abysmal marvel movies
Dumb movie. Should have seen something else.
Hollyweird is getting worse and worse with all the fake animals talking and odd sH!t they put in it. I mean WHO can LAUGH when it's so UNREAL it's worthless. They keep trying the same tactics which is so disappointing. WHEN WILL they finally get it, WE ARE BOARD with this CRAP!
We laughed so much we (several not-young ladies) thought we'd get booted out. Familiar references used properly, good acting, a plot fair enough to get lost in. Good fun to leave you smiling in these dark times.
So dumb.
It was refreshing , and unique. The characters had a real sense about them!
I rated this movie with 5 stars. It was entertaining and full of interesting surprises. I love the 3 main characters and they didn't disappoint me. Not sure what your expecting from this movie but, it may not be an oscar winner it is still a fun movie and I would watch it again. It is not for anyone under 13.
Good verse Evil and Santa wins....
better than i thought it would be. my 12 year old gave it a 5
better than i thought it was going to be. my 12 year gave it a 5
Leave the kids at home.
Very disappointed. Lots of bad language and some dark and disturbing scenes.
this started great. I thought wow next great Christmas movie. BUTT wrong. It had a lot of adult stuff in it. And a lot of scary stuff too. They did such a good job I thought it must be for kids. BUTT the beach scenes, witchcraft, dark characters and unnecessary language ruined that. For adults it was okay, funny, a bit much with the dark side. Confusing. They should have made 2 different movies. The ending was good but for me it was not worth all the junk and I am SO GLAD I did NOT take my grandson.
I don't know who told anyone this movie is for kids, or that you didn't see anything dark in the trailer. And Christians better believe there is darkness out there. I LOVED this movie. The acting was great, as was the story line. I liked all the details of how Christmas works. It was so much fun, entertaining and funny (The Rock is funny!) I cried at the amazing tender scene at the end, A great message about Redemption, and that there is always hope for conversion, and 2nd chances . It's never too late to do the right thing. Worth seeing a 2nd time. Bravo!
Can't go wrong with the Rock. It was also refreshing to see a lively Mrs Claus with important things to do, too. She's usually given a back seat standing around waiting for Santa to get all the glory. Good role modeling.
This movie being geared toward children is a lie! There is no need to use fowl language in a movie for children. Using a word also for a man's private is ridiculous! I am sorry we went to see this movie, it is disgusting. It would of been a fun movie if the curse words were not used! Also the under world was a little much. Also the beach swim wear is not for children!
A great light movie, seems like a kid's movie but I think it was written for Adult's who are children at heart. Not for little tykes!
Boring
It wasn't in the trailer, that the beings of the underworld and black magic were in this movie. Good story line but it could stress little children out and cause unnecessary fear of kidnapping, retribution and creatures of the night. Although amusing, good things like ice cream trucks, toy stores and holiday fun are mixed with demons, witches, and other demonic forces. I wouldn't advise going if you are Christian.
Corny but so much fun. Don't miss it.
This is a very good movie. Go see it for yourself.
Awesome movie! Very exciting. It has lots of action. Fun humor. Unusual Star Wars type characters. An action packed story that's easy to follow. Acting that's very good. A heart warming message. There's even an explanation for how Santa manages to do it all in one night! Actually it's the best Christmas movie I have ever seen.
It has action and comedy. It keeps you wanting to continue watching. I would definitely recommend this movie.
Awful movie. Some people walked out.
It has lots of laughs and action. It also has a great message and that's a rare thing in movies today.
Good fun.
Garbage
Another great rock movie one of my new top favorite Christmas movies!!
I really like this movie. The cast for this movie was great. The movie was very funny and good.
I like the santa clause themes
