With Brian Stokes Mitchell and Victor Garber also trying a little too hard.

Predictable, dated holiday film is refreshingly multiracial.

Filme fraco, o roteiro é fraco, as cenas são fracas, a história é fraca, o elenco é fraco, e ninguém ajuda a melhorar o filme, os personagens são fracos, e o filme deveria ter cenas bem melhores e relevantes, para fazer o filme ser bom

This is probably a made for TV film, and is best suited for kids. Whoopi Goldberg is good and there's lots of fun to be had. But it's not great.

'Call Me Claus' has it's tender, funny and clever moments, but the only major negative is that the story is a rip-off of 'Ernest Saves Christmas' where Santa Claus has to find a new Santa to replace him

It could have been done better, but it still brought a perfect combination of drama and well written comedy.
