The
Santa Clause 2 - The Mrs. Clause (Widescreen Edition) (2002) DVD
As a divorced dad who inherited
the jolly man's job in The Santa Clause, Allen now faces another Yuletide
challenge. According to the "Missus Clause" in his North Pole contract,
he can't continue to be the real Santa until he gets married. As luck and
five credited screenwriters would have it, Allen falls for the Scrooge-y
principal (Elizabeth Mitchell) of his son's school, while a phony, power-hungry
duplicate Santa wreaks havoc on the North Pole's overworked elves. It's
all as sweet as spiced eggnog, with that warmed-over feel of a mandated
sequel, but the Christmas spirit does prevail with the sound of sleigh
bells and Allen's rosy-cheeked ho, ho, ho! --Jeff Shannon |
The
Santa Clause (1994) DVD
Divorced toy company executive
Scott Calvin (Tim Allen of Home Improvement and the Toy Story movies) is
pleased to have his son Charlie for Christmas, though the boy himself isn't
happy about it. But when Santa Claus accidentally topples off the roof
of the house and falls with a thud in the snow, Scott finds himself taking
the merry old elf's place and earning new respect in his son's eyes. When
the night ends, the reindeer take them to the north pole, and Scott discovers
that by donning the fabled red suit, he's inadvertently agreed to become
the next Santa Claus. -- Bret Fetzer |
