| Flick FilosopherMaryAnn JohansonOr, That Time That Santa Went to Prison and Dad Broke Parole to Spring Him. You know, for kids! A new classic in the annals of Yuletide movie misfires. |
| Times (UK)Wendy IdeThis blend of tinsel and grit is elevated by the performances. |
| Daily StarAndy LeaCrossing the whimsy of The Santa Clause with the grit of Scum may sound like an odd idea but Smith manages to milk his set-up for some big laughs. |
| Contactmusic.comRich ClineSolidly entertaining Christmas movies are so rare that when one comes along it feels like the best gift ever. |
| HeyUGuysStefan PapeA magical, compelling, funny and emotional piece of cinema. |
| Digital SpyStella PapamichaelSmith carefully balances light and shade in all aspects of the film. |
| The Hollywood ReporterLeslie FelperinSome parts – the solid cast, a few well-turned one-liners – are really quite good indeed, although viewers have to wade through a moderate fug of reindeer fart jokes to get to them. |
