Quotes
Sally: [to Santa while being held upside down by the guard] Come on, do something.
Guard: Oh I'll do something alright. I'll stick you in solitary, you wretch.
Sally: What's wrong with you, don't you want to save Christmas?
Guard: Christmas? Is that what all this is all about? I hate Christmas. If I had my way, I'd cancel the lot of it.
[Santa punches the guard in the face]

Great movie with a difference

Nine year old Tom discovers Santa and persuades his sceptical dad to help him get back to Lapland. Jim Broabent is very entertaining as the naive and bewildered Father Christmas.

This is refreshingly British and a great addition to my annual must see festive films. One of the best Christmas movies ever made.

It is also way superior to over-rated schmaltz such as 'critics favourite' White Christmas (1954). Personally I had more fun watching paint dry.
