Santa Clause

Tis the season to be jolly! With Christmas fast approaching, now is the time to revisit all those holiday favorites!  So many to chose from, so very enjoyable.  One of my favorites is Santa Clause with Tim Allen.  

Santa Clause is the story of Scott Calvin (Tim Allen), he lives life for success, he is divorced and has a son, Charlie.  On Christmas Eve, Scott's ex-wife brings Charlie over to spend the night with his dad.  That night there "arose such a clatter," Scott goes outside, with Charlie close behind him to find Santa on the roof.  Not knowing what else to do, Scott yells up to Santa, causing him to fall off the roof.  Scott and Charlie climb up to the sleigh, Scott, reluctantly puts on the suite and the two embark on a journey to fill all the homes with presents from Santa. 

Charlie has the time of his life, while his dad would rather be at home in bed.  When they finished at the last house, Scott expected to go home, but instead they end up at the North Pole only to find that Scott Calvin is the new Santa Clause.  What a night. The rest of the film is the hilarious transformation of Scott Calvin to Santa Clause and the trouble it causes.

This film is a great holiday movie, its great for the family.  14-years later, I am still laughing! 

I give this movie 4 out of 5 stars.
