REVIEW:
I've been wanting to watch this since I first seen the trailer. How freakin' fun!

Santa is kidnapped right before Christmas and now the North Pole's Head of Security must team up with a notorious hacker and tracker. The two will travel the world to find Santa. 

This was refreshing and different and kick-ass. 

There was humor but I really appreciated the fresh take on saving Santa and Christmas. It's so nice seeing something original. 

Loved the cast. They were great!!

The action was a hoot. 

I loved the humor. It was there but it wasn't overdone or campy. 

The big baddie was a nice touch. Won't spoil anything. 

I'm disappointed that Krampus didn't more time at the end there. Again...no spoilers....but I was hoping for....more? Maybe there will be a movie 2. 

I also wanted more of the North Pole agents. They needed more kickass time. 

But yes, I really enjoyed this movie. It was fresh and fun and made me want Santa to be real. 

4 stars from me. 


ONE WORD SUMMARY: Kickass-y

Oh yea! I want to watch it too. But then I heard some people trashing it. Looks so fun to me! Maybe I'll watch tomorrow when I'm all alone!

Some people are too tough on movies like these. These are just supposed to be fun films that don't themselves too seriously.
