It's not as good as the previous Space Buddies was, but with a Christmas theme, it makes a great thing to watch with the family during the holidays.

Rated: 3/5

Without a doubt the worst Buddies movie and one of the more tedious holiday films I've had to sit through.

Rated: 3/10

It's a tidy story, but never remarkable, and a few burp jokes reveal disconcerting limitations to the goodwill of the film.

Rated: C+

Santa Buddies is the equivalent of a flaming bag of doggie dung on your doorstep: it's impossible to explain what you did to deserve it and you want it gone and forgotten as soon as possible.

...immediately establishes itself as a pointless and downright interminable family comedy that's almost entirely lacking in elements designed to appeal to older viewers.

This movie should be used to torture prisoners of war into giving up secrets.

(Quick review) Santa Buddies is a 2009 family Christmas film directed by Robert Vince. The film stars Zachary Gordon as Santa Paws and Christopher Lloyd as Stan Cruge. A poorly executed film that is displeasing to both the eyes and soul. The cast was out of place, the characters were insultingly generic, the special effects were incredibly unsettling, the story was uninteresting and disengaging, but the only reason I'm not giving the film a one is because of its very small but still effective heart. Overall I give it a 2/10 - bad film, wouldn't recommend

Very poor showing from the successful Disney stable. Some of the lamest CGI seen on screen combined with a cringeworthy script. You’d rather be on Santa’s naughty list than see this !!
