About this deal

Having not seen this until now, I felt like a complete freeze miser for unintentionally missing it, although I did see the musical on Broadway in 2012. This film pays great tribute to our modern Christmas culture with references to the Franken-Bass TV specials of my childhood and even gets a very funny Keebler elf reference in as well.

Elf has some smart and hilarious humor, mixed with a cute (if slightly over sentimental) story and is sure to get you in the holiday spirit. The youthful Tom Cruise was perfectly cast as the forest boy Jack and Mia Sara was just right as the girl. I am sorry that I did not ever get to hear the Goldsmith score, but I thought the Tangerine Dream score was very fitting. Our resources are crucial for knowledge lovers everywhere—so if you find all these bits and bytes useful, please pitch in. However, the film is unable to avoid falling into the usual cliches and stereotypes that Christmas films usually follow.More Hamburger icon An icon used to represent a menu that can be toggled by interacting with this icon.

The film has many funny moments (my favorite was when he exposed FAKE Santa to the kids waiting to see him), a few sweet ones and some very clichéd ones--but I can forgive this, as it IS a family comedy and I am not expecting Shakespeare! Santa allows him to go to New York City to find his birth father Walter Hobbs (James Caan) who is actually on Santa's naughty list. Eventually, after not fitting in for a very long time, the elves inform Buddy that they now know who his read father is and Buddy leaves the Pole for New York City to find his dad. Ferrell in particular is good at this kind of physical comedy, and there's a certain charm to his performance.And I worry that being shown so much that folks might have a backlash--might start to hate the film even though it's decent family entertainment and is worth your time.

When he surprises her in the employee lounge (complete with shower) as she sings "Baby It's Cold Outside", it's a magical moment, one of many that starts with the sight of Santa's real village. The film stars Will Ferrell, James Caan, Zooey Deschanel, and Bob Newhart, who all give great performances.
