Editorial Reviews
Amazon.co.uk Review
Leslie Nielsen tones down the bumbling for Santa Who? but wearing a belly like a bowl full of jelly does little to diminish his trademark dimwittedness, which is what gets the bells ringing on this St. Nick flick. Peter Albright, self-involved TV reporter, can't believe his luck when Santa, presumably the for-hire variety, sails into his windshield and gets amnesia--what a story! When his search for Santa's family stops short at the North Pole, his humbug infestation subsides, setting him free to make merry. Predictability aside, Santa Who? drags a sleigh-full of better than average shenanigans into living rooms, making this a winter-evening warmer for the whole family. --Tammy La Gorce, Amazon.com

The Greatest Christmas movie ever
Santa Who is the greatest Chrisitmas movie ever. It's very heartwarming and hilarious. It's A fantastic movie to watch when ever your feeling blue and for the hole Family. Santa (Leslie Neilsen)goes for a ride in his sleigh and falls out. He lands on the car of A Christmas hater News Reporter and who dosen't like kids Peter Albright(Steven Eckholdt) and forgets who he is. Peter thinks he found the Christmas story of a lifetime by trying to find Santas real family. While his girl friend Claire tries to get their relationship in order she gets Santa a job as a department store Santa where she works. The only one who belives this guy is the real Santa Claus is Claires son Zack.
Zack doesn't like or trust peter at all. Zack helps Santa rember who is.
Mean While at The NorthPole Santas Elves are in A panic trying to find where their Santa is. Rupert The Elf (Darren Frost) shows his best friend and his boss Max The Head Elf( Tommy Davidson) the location of the city where they their Santas at. Max, Rupert, Freddie and Larry to the city to save Santa, Christmas and the hearts of kids all over the world.
AMUSING
I actually thought that this film was quite amusing. I think you have to be in the right mood for it though. Leslie Nielsen in his underwear....well! Good for kids and adults alike.
A sad waste of great comic talent
A promising film that fails to deliver. Not only does Leslie "Naked Gun" Nielsen appear as Santa, but Steve Smith of the US "Red Green" show had a supporting role. Sadly, they are but ancillary players (Smith's role was sadly unnecessary), playing second fiddle to a bachelor who argues with his girlfriend's son about the existence of Santa. The son is not very endearing as the faithful child, and many plot points are unnecessarily delayed. (Can we say "idiot plot?") Nielsen's comic potential is needlessly squandered. Red Green fans would never accept that their hero could be overcome by Tommy "In Living Color" Davidson, who plays an oversized elf.
