Editorial Review:
Divorced toy company executive Scott Calvin (Tim Allen of Home Improvement and the Toy Story movies) is pleased to have his son Charlie for Christmas, though the boy himself isn't happy about it. But when Santa Claus accidentally topples off the roof of the house and falls with a thud in the snow, Scott finds himself taking the merry old elf's place and earning new respect in his son's eyes. When the night ends, the reindeer take them to the north pole, and Scott discovers that by donning the fabled red suit, he's inadvertently agreed to become the next Santa Claus. The next morning he wakes up in his own bed and thinks it's all a dream--only Charlie remembers it with crystal clarity. Scott now has to deal with his suspicious ex-wife (Wendy Crewson, Air Force One) and her psychiatrist boyfriend (Judge Reinhold, Beverly Hills Cop), who both think he's playing tricks with Charlie's mind, and also with his own out-of-control body, which is putting on weight and growing a prodigious beard. The Santa Clause probably won't supplant It's a Wonderful Life or Miracle on 34th Street as anyone's favorite holiday film, but it's an enjoyable, straightforward family film, anchored by the affable charisma of Allen. --Bret Fetzer
The Santa Clause [Region 2] Reviews:
The Santa Clause DVD 
2009-11-24 - My DVD arived very fast and in great condition just like it was advertised. I am very happy with my purchase.
Santa 'Tim Allen'? 
2009-11-16 - What if YOUR Dad (foibles and all) became the 'new' Santa Claus? This is the premise of 'The Santa Clause' and it did a good job of breathing some new life into Santa's story. While all his characters seem like the same one portrayed in 'Home Improvement', Tim Allen makes for a good 'feel-good' father. I enjoyed the movie, and would watch it again, so it's worth purchasing, IMHO.
Go Santa Go~ 
2009-07-09 - We watched the first one so much, it actually got scratched and worn out so we had to get another! Timeless fun with Tim Allen and will be a Christmas classic before long. It's one of my favorites..and I'm the grandma!

2009-01-28 - Not much to say in a review of the movie. Amazon had a good price on the movie so I bought it for Christmas.
