Entertaining Christmas movie

Rating: 6/10 (16 December 2016)

Buddy is a human who has been raised as one of Santa's elves. One day Buddy sets off to New York to find his birth father, Walter Hobbs. New York is a whole new experience for Buddy...
Reasonably entertaining Christmas movie. Plot is mostly unoriginal, predictable and trite. However, doesn't take itself too seriously. Moves along briskly and is quite funny at times. Kids will love it, but adults might find it so-so.
Will Ferrell is good in the lead role - was a perfect casting for the role. Good support from James Caan, Edward Asner, Mary Steenburgen and the gorgeous Zooey Deschanel.
