source: Meet the Santas

There's just something likeable above Steve Guttenberg. I've seen this guy in alot of films from Police Academy to The Boyfriend School(Don't Tell Her It's Me) to Tower Of Terror to even It Takes Two. Here he plays Nick(son of Santa Claus) who is set to marry Beth at Christmas Eve but will the wedding go ahead thanks to Beth's overbearing mother Jessica?. Overall it was a cute film. If you seen the the first film then you might enjoy this one as its similar to it. Steve Guttenberg(as I've mentioned before) is a good actor but here his ho ho laugh can be very irritating from time to time. Watch it during this Xmas season.

The rush for the wedding was overpowered by Beth's terribly pushy mother. I certainly would have stood up to my mom if she acted like that! I was also sad that we didn't get to see the after-wedding and North Pole arrival. I was looking forward to that the most! This was kind of blah compared to the first one.

BEWARE OF BOGUS REVIEWS. SOME REVIEWERS HAVE ONLY ONE REVIEW TO THEIR NAME. NOW WHEN ITS A POSITIVE REVIEW THAT TELLS ME THEY WERE INVOLVED WITH THE MOVIE. IF ITS A NEGATIVE REVIEW THEN THEY MIGHT HAVE A GRUDGE AGAINST THE FILM . NOW I HAVE REVIEWED OVER 200 HOLIDAY FILMS. I HAVE NO AGENDA. I AM HONEST ABOUT THEM. In this film Beth is engaged to a wonderful man named Nick. The only problem is that he assumed the mantle of Santa Claus on December 26th of the previous year when his father retired. Now she must marry him on Christmas Eve and assume the duties of Mrs. Claus. Overwhelmed, she asks her mother to help. She knows nothing of her fiancé, his family, or their secret. This film is lots of fun. It is not mandatory that you have seen the first film but that film (Single Santa Seeks Mrs Claus) is more entertaining. The cast in this works hard in this and a less talented cast would made this film a huge mess. Well worth watching, Family safe. I will watch it again!

I love these kinds of mindless, fun movies with no serious point to make. There are no politically correct lessons to learn here, but entertainment. I miss just plain old entertainment. My two complaints on this lightweight Christmas movie are the Santa laugh that Steve Guttenberg does....it's positively grating and couldn't sound less like an enthusiastic Santa if he tried--and the really poor wig on father Santa. Seems like for a few dollars more they could have gotten something that doesn't look like it came out of a dumpster behind a pet store. If they could dub the laugh, and fix that wig, then this one would be great fun.

Lets get one thing straight, I LOVE Steve "The Gute" Guttenburg. The man is an acting colossus. However, even I, arguably his biggest fan in the England and Wales area, was not prepared for the sheer acting clinic that he put on in this film. From start to finish, this was the Guttenburg show. He owned the screen in every shot, from his authentic Christmas laugh to his down to Earth smile. Whilst the other actors in this film portrayed their roles heroically, they looked like amateurs in comparison to Mr Guttenburg. One actor I would like to single out for some slight criticism is Dominic Scott Kay, who played Jake. His performance made me want to eat my own eyes out, and if I ever meet him in person I would have no hesitation in punching him square in the throat for nearly ruining an instant Guttenburg classic. Judging by his performance he has obviously not been acting for long, which would make me question the casting agents decision to hire him for such a prestigious role. If I were the casting agent, I would have personally hired Kiefer Sutherland for the role of Jake, as he has already cut his acting chops, and established a screen and radio presence. To conclude, this Christmas classic is already a must watch in my household and I imagine that come Oscar season it will be rolling in Academy Awards and praise. The emotionally moving ending will have you bauble-ing and reindeer-ing tears from all angles. Simply put: PERFECT. Apart from Jake who was really bad.

I still have to leave off one star because of the constant "ho ho ho" laugh by Nick. An occasional one would have been enough. And I think that the idea of the Santa's being, well, actually "the" Santas, was carried a little far by everything they owned being red. But I loved the Christmas tree that Nick kept making bigger! Once more folks, this is a Christmas movie. It is not great film-making and it isn't (usually) going to be Oscar material. It's just a happy, enjoyable little movie that SHOULD make most people (Scrooge excepted) smile. And come on, Crystal Bernard is beautiful and talented and the guy that plays Santa is cute and lovable. Quit looking for great films and enjoy Christmas!

Not exactly the sequel you've been holding your breath to see. This is the follow up to SINGLE SANTA SEEKS MRS. CLAUS. Just about the whole cast returns for another round of forced Christmas gaiety. Its amazing how Hallmark Entertainment TV can gain profitable numbers in presenting these turkeys more than once. But it is safe holiday fare for the family. This time Nick Claus(Steve Guttenberg)is working overtime to afford the most perfect wedding. Beth(Crystal Bernard)finds that her society mother disapproves of Nick and definitely has no idea he is Santa Claus' son. Others in the cast: Marcia Ann Burrs, Dominic Scott Kay, Armin Shimerman and Mariette Hartley.

Sequel to "Single Santa Seeks Mrs. Claus" *WARNING* - Spoilers ahead! Hopefully not enough to ruin the whole movie, but you have been warned! I comment on plot devices, so it would be somewhat spoiler, but the review doesn't work without the information Well, I saw the first in the series (noted above) and didn't think much of it. With the framework in place, I thought this feature might pull it together better, however. Wrong. In brief, Crystal Bernard is Beth, the fiancé of the heir to Santa, (played by Steve Guttenberg as Nick). Beth's Mother is a harsh dictator who rules with a iron fist, and when Beth turns to her when it appears that she can't put together the marriage she wants in time for Christmas Eve (long story) she brings the fist down on Beth. OK, lets look at the problems: VERY slow pace. Wastes the first hour wandering about plot-wise, then when the Mother is introduced, she is impossibly harsh (so harsh that the plot device of Beth asking for her help isn't believable, an elopement (or suicide) would have been more believable (and quicker!)) Steve Guttenberg plays his part as a total nitwit. So annoying that it isn't funny. In the first movie he shows some brains/parenting skills. Nothing here, just dumb. The end of the movie wraps up in the last 10 minutes! So sugary I just about gagged, with WILD changes of heart that were completely out of character (Come on, should of used some that first wasted hour!) These actors are able to do MUCH better work. This was SO dumb I was happy to tape over it. Let me offer some ideas: The Mother should have been much softer (or does she really hate Beth that much?) to begin with. Not being a Santa believer is fine, but... Next, have Nick win her over some, like Beth. A last minute solution made this a waste of time. Also, why CAN'T we take the characters to the North Pole? Other movies have done so with some plot device for some continued disbelief. UGH! I wanted this two hours of my life back. (I kept watching HOPING it would get better) In short the best part of this movie is the advertising spot!

"Meet The santas"(2005) Sequel To "Single Santa Seeks Mrs. Claus (2004) Which Both were created By The Hallmark Channel (www.thehallmarkchannel.com)Is & Was just as good If not Better than "Single Santa Seeks Mrs. Claus". I Love the Chemistry between Crystal Barnard & Steve Guttenberg. I'd like to them act together again in another Santa Movie, or that matter any good movie with a good script. Hollywood nowadays doesn't seem to think chemistry is too important anymore. The Hallmark Channel pumps out original movies out monthly and does so with quality stuff. Anyday I prefer Hallmark movies over Pay channel's movies.
