“Some elements stretch credibility a bit far (even for this franchise), but there’s still fun to be had, even if the film isn’t firing on all cylinders”

“Despite the film being fairly lightweight & insubstantial, Kurt Russell is still the Santa to beat for on-screen coolness”

“More of a series of amusing anecdotes & vignettes, rather than a plot per se”

“No Christmas classic - but a decent family-friendly option, & Kurt Russell makes a great Santa”

“A sequel as good as the original, that doesn’t simply rehash the earlier formula”

“Utter nonsense, but outrageously fun to watch”
