      Audience Member This is a good film. I like how rather than just being a regular Christmas movie, it decides to add a touch of mystery to the story as well. So it ends up being a bit of both, and pretty interesting to boot. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/26/23 Full Review Audience Member Beauitful film. That shows us what christmas magic can do. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/03/23 Full Review Audience Member quite a few good messages in this very sweet film :) Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/23/23 Full Review Audience Member In the small town of Seacliff, Wash., a child's letter to Santa Claus captures the nation's attention. When the little boy, Chris, writes that he wishes to leave this world so he will no longer be a burden to his divorcing parents, a race begins to find him before he harms himself. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 02/10/23 Full Review Audience Member This is a wonderful movie about a little girl writing letters to santa from Chris due to she is not getting the attention needed from her parents. A lot of reporters come to run the storie about this Chris writing to santa. It is a wonderful movie you need to see. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/18/23 Full Review Audience Member En forutsigbar, men til tider ok julefilm som ble vist på fjernsynet midt i den verste eksamensstria. Et trivelig avbrekk, men langt i fra å bli noen førjulsklassiker her i huset! Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/20/23 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating
