This is probably my favorite Christmas movie as well. It never gets old. I've always been confused about the bad critic reviews.

I may catch some **** for this, but keep in mind I enjoyed this movie when I was at an age where I was blissfully unaware of how much of a tool Tim Allen is:



I don't care what anyone says...the first one is a Christmas classic. I was right around the age of the kid in the movie, so I could easily relate. This says nothing about the horrible sequels, however. Just the first one, folks...just the first one.
