Critics Consensus

Wrapped in slick packaging but wholly lacking in holiday magic, Red One is a ho-ho-hum action-adventure.

Audience Says

Led by The Rock, the entire ensemble delivers ample servings of naughty and nice that may leave you humming, “Oh what fun it is to ride in a Red One open sleigh.”

Jesse Hassenger

AV Club

The aggressively secular and gift-based systems of Red One are almost enough to prompt a moist-eyed holiday wish for more piously churchy seasonal entertainment.

Rated: C-

Kermode and Mayo's Take (YouTube)

This is the big American blockbuster of the week, and it is absolute crap.

“Red One,” a film that has the courage to ask: What if the Santa Claus story was like a Marvel movie?

Naughty list? Nah. Red One belongs on an entirely different list.

“Red One” is relatively watchable family fare, but as ephemeral and forgettable as a first dusting of snow.

Rated: 2/4

The Michael Medved Show

With high-tech effects and light laughs, it delivers holiday fun, anchored by a sympathetic J.K. Simmons as Santa.

Rated: 2.5/4

Fun is an understatement! Our family (me, my husband, and our kids ages 9 and 10) absolutely loved this film. The magic of Christmas blended with fantasy, sci-fi, culture, etc, was so brilliantly done.
