Dear Santa

CriticsCritics: 29
AudienceAudience: 5.2

A likeable sixth grader with dyslexia accidentally sends his letter meant for Santa to Satan instead. The unexpected visitor arrives at his home, thrilled to receive his first fan letter and hoping to claim a little of the boy’s soul, leading to unusual holiday chaos.

My take

You may enjoy this if you like irreverent Christmas comedies such as Shallow Hal, but it is Not for you if you want polished acting, consistent tone, or a traditional holiday story.
