Brief Language for parents to beware of

The review says that "oh my G.." is as bad as it gets, however there is one scene when Mary tells her dad (Santa) .. "Immortal my REAR" but uses the "A" word reference instead. Also when the elves are pulling Santa's chair they say "How the HECK do the reindeer do it?" There are four times the phrase "Screw Up" are used. The movie is good, but the story plot and dialog may loose the attention of kids under the age of 8.

This title has:

Too much swearing

Is It Any Good?

Our review:
Parents say: (1 ):
Kids say: Not yet rated

Though SANTA BABY does have a romantic subplot and includes some brief kissing scenes, the content is so mild that it shouldn't keep kids out of the room. And parents will certainly pick up on the movie's themes of love, forgiveness, and respect. Santa Baby is a nice (if not ground-breaking) holiday tale with cute twists on Christmas traditions and stories. Plus, the lovely snowy scenery and holiday décor are sure to get you and yours in the Christmas spirit.
