Ratings and reviews

Just a good all around movie. Good for all. Good story some good music, yes sad a little but also a great lesson at Christmas or anytime of year to let us know what really matters. 👍

Wonderful! The story is interesting, effects are astounding, and last but not least, acting was superb. Surprising to see that Keaton, who mostly made comedy movies prior to this, can also do drama. A very touching, tear-jerking movie that also has some humorous moments. I have watched it with my family every year and it never fails to bring a tear to anyone's eyes. You might want to watch with a box of tissues.

Great movie, little suspense little excitement a little adventure, great for anybody who likes Christmas movies they acting as great it's kind of an emotional roller coaster I would recommend it to anybody, especially if you have older kids. It does deal with the loss of a loved one
