About
You’ll likely enjoy this silly, frantic Christmas scramble if you like goofy toy-hunting mayhem and big laughs; Not for you if you want a deeper holiday message or if you dislike slapstick, since it plays a lot like other festive comedies such as The Santa Clause 2 and Home Alone.
Pros: fun family chaos; plenty of slapstick; holiday energy | Cons: lowbrow jokes; slow or stale spots; mixed comedy impact
