The Christmas Clause Review By John C.

**1/2 (out of 4)

The Christmas Clause is pretty much just another take on a classic Christmas premise. A woman, overwhelmed by her life, asks Santa for a new one. The woman, Sophie, is played by Lea Thompson, better known as Lorraine in the Back to the Future films.


The Santa that she deals with is a bit creepy, but other than that there’s really nothing wrong with this film. Though by no means that great, The Christmas Clause is surprisingly alright in that made for TV kind of way. The audiences that rent this film are likely to enjoy it.

The Christmas Clause DVD Review By Erin V.

**1/2 (out of 4)

In the film The Christmas Clause, Sophie, a lawyer and mother of two kids, is overwhelmed with her life as it is, and wishes for a new one. Not long after, she faints and wakes up with the life she wished for. And then, of course, in a classic Christmas kind of story, she discovers that it's not quite really what she wanted, her old life was better, and she now must find a way to get it back before Christmas Eve.


The Christmas Clause is by no means a bad film to watch if it comes on TV. It kept itself going well enough, and for a Sunday afternoon, 'not watching that closely', kind of entertainment, I would recommend it.
