Simply Perfect
Good story, Not enough for a whole film
A movie that not only functions as a solid scarefest but a razor-sharp satire.
I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.
BEWARE OF FALSE REVIEWS & REVIEWERS. SOME REVIEWERS HAVE ONLY ONE REVIEW TO THEIR NAME. NOW WHEN ITS A POSITIVE REVIEW THAT TELLS ME THEY WERE INVOLVED WITH THE MOVIE. IF ITS A NEGATIVE REVIEW THEN THEY MIGHT HAVE A GRUDGE AGAINST THE FILM . NOW I HAVE REVIEWED OVER 300 HOLIDAY FILMS. I HAVE NO AGENDA.The Night They Saved Christmas is a 1984 American made-for- television Christmas film directed by Jackie Cooper and executive produced by Jack Haley, Jr. and Robert Halmi, Jr. The film, about an oil company dynamiting in the North Pole in search of an oil field unaware that they are endangering Santa Claus, starred Jaclyn Smith and Art Carney and premiered on ABC on December 13, 1984.This film is worth watching. It has a charming cast and a story line that hits all the right notes without diving into the deep end. This is a Television-Movie so the Special Effects are limited and not the best however the film story works and that is what counts.
I loved watching this one with my kids when they were little and now can't wait to share it with my grandkids.North Pole city was so magical.Great scenery.I loved the way Santa made the Jaclyn Smith character believe in him.It has something to appeal to all ages from 2 year olds up to .......Not too heavy for kids and not to silly for adults.The only thing I didn't like was the way the parents were at odds overliving up there.I didn't see the relevance of that as far as bringing anything to the movie- that part could have been left out.Anyone who doesn't like this movie is just an old Scrooge. :D
this movie is really great! especially to a person who loves the holiday season.i am glad that i could catch it on cable.otherwise, i would have never heard about it.it gives me this great warm feeling and renews my love for the season.i only have one question.what's with the bearded lady elves and the main guy elf wearing eyeshadow?i thought he was angela lansbury at first but then i found out it was a man elf.the movie definitely gets a person to think about what humans are doing to nature as well. i could not go without this movie.I'm going to make it a personal tradition.
I first saw this movie when it was on TV. I just loved it. It made me believe in Santa Clause. It shows such imagination. A very heart warming story. I think everyone should see it. I watch it several times during the Christmas season. The movie depicts Santa's north pole like I think it would look. It's the best depiction ever. The movie is such a feel good movie. I cry a happy cry every time I watch it. If this movie doesn't make the scroogeiest person believe in Santa, nothing will. My thanks to the cast for making this movie. I have a young great niece and nephew and I intend to have them watch this movie this year. I know they will love it.Thank you for making the best Christmas movie ever.
