Christmas Movie Review: ***Fred Claus
This puts the Santa Claus story in a new light. Fred is Santa's older brother. Not everything is cool between the brothers, as Fred has struggled living in the shadow of his younger brother. Perhaps this is why Fred tends to the naughty side. Finally, using tough love, Santa insists Fred come to the North Pole to work for the money he is needing. This isn't a good year for Fred to be at the North Pole, as there is an intense audit going on, and Santa is under threat of being fired, and Christmas abolished. Santa and Fred eventually air their grievances in a snowball fight, which gets rough, and Santa is left with a bad back. He cannot deliver presents. By the rules, only a Claus can deliver presents. If they are not delivered by morning, Santa Claus will be done away and all the elves fired. This movie stars Vince Vaughn as Santa. This movie has some sexual inuendo, an employee who is scantily dressed, so a parent may want to watch this before letting children watch. This is a made for TV movie.
