Synopsis: It's the eve of Christmas in northern Finland and an "archeological" dig has just unearthed the real Santa Claus. But this particular Santa isn't the one you want coming to town. When all the local children begin mysteriously disappearing, young Pietari and his father Rauno, a reindeer hunter by trade, capture the mythological being and attempt to sell Santa to the misguided leader of the multinational corporation sponsoring the dig. Santa's elves, however, will stop at nothing to free their fearless leader from captivity.
haha sign me up.
It's just okay.
I saw this at Fantastic Fest this year. It looks better than it is.
It's fun, but it slows down a lot after the first few minutes and while the kid is endearing throughout the movie, it's kind of boring until the end (which I didn't like).
It's not terrible, just trying to lower expectations, I went in really excited to see Baby Bjork fight a Santa.
