Not great but some very good laughs

Rating: 8/10 (29 November 2003)

I saw Elf this weekend with my nephews (ages 8 & 10) and was pleasantly surprised. I loved Will Ferrell on SNL but the commercials for Elf left me thinking this might not be a very good film. The story was kind of slow/corny in some parts (especially the end) but for the most it kept me and my nephews laughing.
A must see if you are a Ferrell fan, this is classic Ferrell hamming.
