Its a good in joke between your friends. Oh, and I guess don't ever ever do anything remotely similar to this. There can be only 1 elf bowling movie.

0/10. Pirates and Santa aren't a good mix, guys. I seriously feel sorry for whoever thought different.

THIS MOVIE IS VERY BASED AND REDPILLED IT HAS //OUR GUY//

Seriously how did this film get greenlit? What were the producers thinking/smoking? There is no real reason to make this. I can fathom films made based on Mario, Sonic, Donkey Kong, or Star Fox but why this? Seriously it was based off of Elf Bowling an online game in 1998 that was renowned for being among the worst. Yet it worse because the story is barely based on what flimsy material it is and there's so many lame scenes and bland song and dance numbers that stretches the time making it not only longer but seem longer than it really is. It all starts off with Santa as a pirate and his brother Dingle getting kicked off their ship, freezing, and thawed by elves. Dingle wants to be in charge and challenges Santa to a game of bowling and Dingle wins by cheating (using penguins in place of elves). Then the plot turns south with the elves being moved to Fiji and involving talking statues. Then a rematch happens and oh heck is this beyond stupid. The characters are ugly and one dimensional, the animation lacking, the story is abysmal beyond comprehension, nor is the dialogue or voice acting worthwhile. If any good came out of it, it's that a Halloween sequel was cancelled due to this lame excuse of this movie's even lamer performance. If anyone is going to make a movie based on any videogame, base it on something well known and good. This should be a chapter in how to not make a movie.

Santa and his brother Dingle are Irish pirates who steal toys. Through a series of events they get rescued by elves who also have penguins. (Penguins at the North Pole!) Santa gives up his evil ways while Dingle tries to hijack Christmas. The film is off beat. There are some themes for adults that kids might not understand such as "tequila body shots." There is also a scene where Dingle is playing cards with the penguins and he is in his undershirt (strip poker?). Elf Bowling is not as exciting as dwarf tossing. Never bet of elf bowling as it is a sport that can be easily rigged.

It might not be Christmas but...wait what am I saying? All the stores have their Christmas stuff up anyway! Anyway, I feel bad for not knowing anything about the Elf Bowling flash game that this was based on. I've written over 16,000 Newgrounds reviews. You'd think they would have it! Anyway again, this was based on a flash game which from what I heard was nothing about bowling with elves as the pins. They decide to change this to make Santa a pirate for no reason. What do pirates have anything to do with Santa Claus? And what they do have anything to do with bowling? They took an idea that was already a weird version of Santa and made it even weirder. Oh, and the pirates only appear for the first four minutes in the entire film. Yes, there is absolutely no reason at all to make Santa a pirate. It's even more pointless than you think. Anyway, Santa has an evil brother named Dingle in this movie. Somewhere around 600 AD, he started delivering toys to all the people in the world. Well originally it was going to be he'd deliver them every day, according to this movie. He convinces the elves to narrow it down to just one day a year. That's incredibly stupid. Nothing important happens to Santa Claus for literally 1400 years. It's only at this point that Santa decides to kick Dingle out because he's still been committing crimes for over a thousand years. Took him long enough, I guess. Dingle tries to take over Christmas by challenging Santa to a bowling game where he cheats and gets disqualified. He doesn't get punished for this, so this is all completely pointless. In fact, you could have literally ended the movie right there are that point and nothing would have changed at that point. This movie is so bad it even gets the dates wrong. It keeps saying that Dingle has been around for 600 years even though he's been there for 1400 years. Can the writers of this movie not even count? There's a later part where they say they're off by six billion toys, but then they say they're off by eight billion toys. Was no one paying attention to this movie in the slightest? Dingle causes the toy factory to blow up which creates a wave freezing Santa who for some reason is making a "Home Alone" face. He relocates to Fiji and finds this woman who wants him for his money. She serves no purpose in this whatsoever. Santa returns and challenges Dingle again. He cheats again and gets disqualified again. What'd they even do this? They should have known the exact thing would happen before. Oh, and there's this magic orb that this one elf named Lex uses. It turns out he actually had the magic in him the whole time and didn't need the orb! Then how is Dingle able to use the orb? It was proved the magic came from Lex, not the orb. Oh, and Dingle's girlfriend is defeated by feeding her strudel. Yes, seriously. They were somehow able to make billions of toys in only a few minutes at the end. Either that, or they did it with Dingle's help which is also dumb considering he's supposed to be the villain. This is one of the worst Christmas movies, worst animated movies, and worst video game movies of all time. I haven't even mentioned how the CGI is horrendous. Every character looks like a melting marshmallow and the CGI looks like it was made in 1994. When you see the characters close up, they come off as even scarier. Okay, I guess this isn't as bad as "Santa And The Ice Cream Bunny", but it's close. I am so glad I'm here to warn people of the films of any kind you should avoid. Dang, I wrote a lot. So many online critics have reviewed it and it's easy to see why. Half a star

Elf bowling:the movie is so nostalgic for me it surpasses even the polar express! But nostalgia is not the only reason I love this movie,It's because of a sudden twist that Santa clause,one of my idols,was a pirate! Hard to believe isn't! Anyway,I'm sure your kids will love watching this on Christmas Eve! The elf's were adorable,best version of them,and Sean hart did an underrated great job as lex,Santa's head elf! Tom Kenny(spongebob)did a good voice for Santa's evil brother dingle! I never played the games but this made me love the elf bowling franchise! Great movie and my fourth favorite!
