When I saw the trailer to Fred Claus, I was excited, this seemed like a fun Christmas movie that would have tons of good laughs and had a great plot. Now I waited ’till the weekend after this film opened, and I heard nothing but terrible reviews about it, so I was very scared to see it. But the way I looked at it was some people have different opinions, nothing to worry about. So I saw it tonite with my boyfriend, and I have to say that honestly, for what it was, this was just a fun Christmas movie. True, it’s cheesy and the jokes are a little dumb at times, but it was all in good fun.

Fred Claus is the older brother of Santa Claus, quite frankly he’s getting a bit tired of all the attention Nicholas(Santa) gets. It’s tough being the brother of a saint. But when he gets into a bit of trouble with the cops, he asks Nic for help and Nic gives it to him, but Fred wants more money, Nic tells him alright, if he comes up to the North Pole to help him out with the work. Fred comes up and decides to shake things up in the North Pole with the elves, but it couldn’t come at a worse time when Santa is being examined for his business and could possibly be shut down.

Fred Claus was a cute holiday movie, like I said, it’s nothing special, but I thought it was fun.
