What Parents Need to Know
About The Santa Clause
Parents need to know the original Santa Claus takes a fatal, accidental pratfall. Guns are drawn as Tim Allen's new "Santa" gets arrested by police. They should know that there are grown-up (and gross) jokes, and that the film deals with divorce and estrangement between a father and son.

Families Can Talk About
- Families can talk about holiday movies. What are some of the others you can think of? Why are the same titles -- like It's a Wonderful Life and Scrooge -- shown each season? How is this film the same or different than other Christmas movies?

I think its a good movie
Helps the skeptical believe in Santa all over again. Has situations that kids can relate to (divorce and parents new friends and feeling torn). We watch this every Christmas.

Great Hoilday Film
This movie was very funny. A good one for the whole family to watch every Christmas. But if you don't believe in Santa... you might not like it too well. There is some mild dirty humor but it is very subtle and safe for younger kids.

A great Christmas movie!
Santa Clause was an outstanding movie. Very funny, and wonderfully believable. This might be one of the best modern Christmas movies. It is DEFINITELY worth watching! :)

Very sweet movie
Good movie and nice relationahip between the father and son. I like that no one is portrayed as stupid or evil. Do think carefully if your child is still a believer.
