Not for Santa believers
Please don't watch it if your kids still believe in Santa. My 7 year old got very upset because they were way too many people who kept saying Santa wasn't real, and it made her question her beliefs. We had to have many follow-up conversations afterwards about whether or not Santa is real. Be careful! But great if your child is over 10.

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.

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 Holiday Fun!
THE SANTA CLAUSE is whimsical, comical, and over-the-top. It is cheerful, original, implausible, and gently touching. For a full dose of holiday cheer, look no further. The film is suitable for most families. Parents should know that the film tackles some mature issues like divorce and child custody. However, there is nothing inapropriate about it. Several adults talk about how they don't believe in Santa, but in the end the big man's existance is confirmed.

A 7-year old's review
This is an awesome Christmas movie! But there are police and jail and stuff. Everything turns out fine. There's lots of elves, toys and Santa-like stuff in this movie. It's not scary, but younger ones may be scared of the jail and stuff [it's not harsh]. It's a really fun movie.

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.
