Father Christmas

Is this as good as The Snowman? No. Does it shamelessly try to sell itself based solely on the fact it's a kind-of sequel to that wonderful film? Yes. Still, while not amazing, this has its moments and does stand out thanks to the spot-on voice performance of Mel Smith as a British Santa with a penchant for throwing out UK cusses. The story is a bit weak honestly, but it wraps up before it has the chance to get too tired. A neat companion to The Snowman, if nothing else.
