Great Movie, But First Is Better!!

I just watched this movie last night; it was a little slow but still a "good" movie. It is family oriented, even though the director could have gotten into sexual territory; in this movie, Santa finds out, that to continue being Santa, he must get married within 28 days. I commend the producer/director for not taking the tact of sex, sexual inuendos, etc.
It takes perhaps a necessary slowness of the movie for Santa to find his wife. Meanwhile, there is some inadvertent nastiness at the North Pole but that seemed too contrived for me. I missed all of the newness of seeing the North Pole as I had in the first Santa Clause movie. The screenwriter missed a bit with the invention of the "accidental" nastiness at the North Pole. He should have come up with an evil character, as was done in the third movie -- in theaters now.
Particularly funny was the Tooth Fairy........... and other "legendary characters." The Tooth Fairy "saves the day" and the ending makes the slowness of parts of the movie worthwhile.

Tim Allen and Elizabeth Mitchell star in this 2002 comedy sequel.
Scott Calvin learns that he needs to find a wife by Christmas Eve
or he'll stop being Santa Claus. This is a great sequel and this
dvd has nice picture and sound plus cool extras. Definitely pick
this up.

Of the three movies in this series, I felt this one was the best of all of them.

Rarely a sequel is as good or even better than the first movie, but in this case I would say the quality of the story stayed consistent if not improved.

The movie was funny for both kids and adults. however it was a bit of a stretch for me to see the carbon copy Santa, I had a hard time buying into that.

The bonus material was great, the tour of the North Pole with Curtis did get long a boring, but otherwise good bonus material.

the deleted scenes were nice but I am glad they were deleted - some of the showed a more raunchy side of Tim Allen.

Tim Allen does it again in The Santa Clause 2. Due to its wonderful composition, hilarious jokes and excellent special effects, this movie is quickly becoming a traditional flick for the entire family to enjoy year after year... it has in mine! I recommend this movie to anyone who enjoys relaxing with family and friends. The Santa Clause 2 is not only a children's movie, what with it's classic one liners inserted randomly throughout the show, it is geared as much toward adults as it is children. Two thumbs up.. five stars.. and so on! You will not regret this purchase!
