BOSS LEVEL is way better


Of the two films with Mel Gibson coming out this year - Boss Level was way better (even if there he's in the support role - not the lead) - with better story/acting/action/star power

This film, on the other hand... I don't know whom it is trying to appeal to - adults? Because it's too violent for kids - at the same time, the characters, the story - they are so cheesy and one dimensional that most adults will roll their eyes on many occasions throughout the film. It seems like the story was written for a kids movie, but then they've decided to add violence/mature content, and ended up with a film that's neither a kids film, nor is it for adults.

So - if you want a decent film with Mel - watch Boss level - as for this mess, skip it.

I liked the movie, it basically delivers all you want when someone pitches a Santa is real, and naughty boys gets pissed. For me definitely one of the better Mel Gibson movies of the 2000s (they are all at least 2 points below his pre 2000 average)

But thank you for the other movie, looks fun, put it on my watchlist.
