This is a variation on
the classic “Miracle On 34th Street” which has Santa facing a class-action suit
for disappointing children at Christmas.
As a result he hires,
widower and single parent, Michael Sherman (Dean Cain) as his lawyer. He chose
Michael in order to both defend the lawsuit and to give Santa the chance to
bring Michael out of his emotional malaise.
Although it doesn’t in
anyway live up to “Miracle On 34th Street” it is still a very enjoyable piece
of Christmas entertainment.
Santa is portrayed
exceptionally well by George Buza while the love interest Lauren, (Rachel
Blanchard) is an absolute delight.
Also the hero’s
daughter Lily Sherman (Helen Colliander) gives a particularly mature
performance.
All round it is an
excellent movie although the Elves are a little annoying.
