Christmas in Wonderland (2007) Reviews

The premise of this movie sounds good, but I got bored. It has some pretty good actors in it too, but the acting was terrible. For a kids movie its not that funny or entertaining. Patrick Swayze was not believable as a bumbling dad. Chris Kattan was not funny at all especially for being from SNL. Tim Curry was terrible considering how many good roles he has done. This kids were pretty good, but the story didn't flow at all. Maybe I am being too critical, but the bottom line is I was not entertained and neither were my kids. There are very few movies that I don't like too. If you want a fun loving entertaining Christmas movie don't get this.

Wayne Saunders (Patrick Swayze) is forced to leave L.A. to move to Edmonton CA. The kids get lost in the mall the youngest wants to see Santa. After visiting Santa a wish comes true they find a bag full of money. The only problem is, its counterfeit cash and the problems start, after they go on a spending spree. Its a must see movie, my family got an enjoyment out watching the movie. We just can't figure out why it's so hard to purchase this time of season. Unless it was because it was filmed in Ca. The 2 boys Matthew Knight and Cameron Bright who played in the movie are from Canada and did a really good job of acting. What really made the movie was Amy and Zoe Schlagel playing the part of Mary Saunders, and believing in Santa and the miracles that happen. I would put this movie in the classics category Miracle on 34th Street.

WHY IS IT TAKING 3 YEARS FOR THIS TO GO TO DVD?????????? You would think they could get thier act together and do this, especially if they wanted to make money, and Now that Swayze has passed-on, I'll bet they get this out quickly. I never even knew it was on TV, did'nt even see any promos for it. What a shame, ive been waiting 3 years to see it and its already been on TV. Im taking this off my list.....
