Christmas Movie Review: **I'll be Home for Christmas"

This Christmas season fare stars Jonathan Taylor Thomas as a spoiled brat, Jake, and Jessica Biel as his girlfriend, Allie.  He is so caught up in his own world, he doesn't want to go home from school for Christmas, but is tempted when his father offers him a car, and old antique.  He plans to travel home with his girlfriend, but a rival kidnaps him and leaves him in the desert with a Santa suit glued on.
This is not a very good movie.  It may be cute at times with the things that happen to someone traveling cross country in a Santa suit with no resources.  The idea of the movie is that Jake grows and matures, and starts to really appreciate his family.  (He turns down the car int he end.)  But he is still misusing others, stealing a sleigh even at the end.  Everyone is just suppose to accept his greater need.
