Just before the event hits, let's see the latest comedy action flick around Cinta Klaus.
Santa is out delivering presents, but is caught when a bunch of thugs decide to invade a rich people's mansion and he has to pare down his naughty list.
Which makes it sound a lot more basic, but from the trailer I was expecting more that Santa was out and about and gets called in by the girl believing in him, but nope, he just happens to be there. And he's saving rich people, which are the ones with the large houses and money that attract thugs but have lots of room for running around beating them up. I guess the poor people can save themselves? Well, actually, they would never be attacked in the first place, so yay for them I guess?
Does this sound a little Die Hard? Well, yeah, and they even call out that movie in this, but that doesn't draw away from... it's a lot of fun. Santa gets his roots on and the movie treats him as an actual person with Christmas magic giving help in some things. Which means that David Harbour gets to have fun, and I do wonder how often he had flashbacks back to being the Red Guardian.
The rest of the cast were good, with Beverly D'Angelo having the best time not giving a shit. But I can't quite buy John Leguizamo as a master fightersman.
So yeah, some fun for seeing in some xmastide, but it's not going to be more.
