Add a CommentI love this movie! it is hilarious!
I saw the movie and I had liked it I had laughed through the movie this is not for children to watch
funniest movie ever maybe even the best movie ever
This is one of the funniest movies I have ever seen! It's entertaining at ANY time of the year!
LOVE LOVE LOVE This Christmas MOVIE!!! Will Ferrell is awesome as Buddy the elf. So many funny and memorable moments. If you are looking for a laugh around the holidays this is definately a movie to watch!
A great Christmas movie that can be enjoyed any time of the year. All the actors have great chemistry together. I would definitely recommend this movie to anyone wanting to see some good hearted humor. I don't know why but I absolutely love this movie. Guaranteed not to disappoint, you will laugh through this entire movie!
A Christmas classic that is funny for kids *and* adults. Buddy the Elf travels to New York City after growing up with Santa, and is surprised and disturbed by the culture. The whole cast has fun with their parts and no one phones it in. Music fans may also appreciate a charming duet by Leon Redbone and lead actress Zooey Deschanel on "Baby It's Cold Outside." This movie has forever ingrained in me an urgent (and thankfully suppressed) desire to ask patrons their favourite colour when I answer the phone around Christmas.
One of my favourite Christmas movies. Forever more I will answer the phone "Buddy the elf, what's your favourite coloiur?"
