    Allen and Short seem to be having so much fun that their enthusiasm is entirely contagious. Let the season begin.

    As a full-service holiday movie, The Santa Clause 3: The Escape Clause gets you into the mood to shop early and often by making the North Pole look like a shopping mall with a never-ending school pageant.

    The whole film is plagued by a sense of false, desperate cheerfulness.

    I hope the next movie will be Santa Clause- The Death Clause. Totally awful movie. The acting, the story, and the directing were sub par. I dont recommend you waste your time or money on this movie.… Expand
