This move has become a modern Christmas classic in my family. It's a refreshing take on an often tired genre of films. The humor is a little off-color at times, especially for younger children, but our kindergartener enjoys it immensely -- even though some references are over her head. However, this same humor is what keeps the adults as engaged as the children. This movie is done by the studio that created "Wallace and Gromit" and "Shaun the Sheep," so if you enjoy that style of British humor you will most likely enjoy this movie.

I watched this very cute movie with my kids and not only were they entertained I was too. This movie was excellent in my opinion. The story line was great and they brought the old Santa and the new one together with their before and after gadgets and I thought that was so creative. Watch this with your kids, not only will they love it, you will too!
