This movie was terrible. Awful. It's like they took off the shelf Hallmark Christmas movie plot points and tried to stir them together. As long as they are in the movie, they count? Real Santa pretending to be a fake Santa...check. Small town...check. Love interest from back home...check. High profile job in big city...check. Daughter of somebody...check. Aunt/Mom who runs a diner...check. But it didn't work, and it shows.
This apparently was Mariah Carey's directorial debut - and it shows. She was mostly in fuzzy head shots making me think she not on set and they shot all her individual TV moments on a separate day.
Why Santa decides to be a janitor and call himself "Thomas" instead of the usual "Nick" is beyond me.
The acting, dialog, pacing, and everything was just bad, not even cheesy, just bad. The only person I liked was the guy who plays the host in UnReal.
