Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaFilmed in Dundas, Ontario, Canada.
- GoofsThe movie takes place in Portland, Oregon, just before Christmas but it was shot in Ontario, Canada. However, it was clearly shot in the late summer / early autumn. Production tried to hide it with artificial snow used on trees and bushes in the close shots. However there are multiply wide shots which reveal it's not the mid of December. In the downtown Christmas tree light up, Christmas trees lot, and in the front of Nick's house, you can see a lot of green deciduous trees, and bushes. Furthermore, cast and extras didn't wear a proper winter clothes either as it was warm.
- Quotes
Meredith Rossman: Sometimes people make choices that can't satisfy everyone. It's the way the world works.
Featured review
Is he or isn't he?
In this story about a Nick Claus, some Christmas magic is hinted, but never demonstrated conclusively. Many good things happen to different people in almost miraculous ways.
The biggest miracle is Meredith, played by Julie Benz. Boy is she a Scrooge at the start. She is a rude workaholic that doesn't tolerate anything that isn't business. When she puts on the Mrs. Claus dress and stands in front of the children waiting for Nick dressed as Santa, I expected disaster. Instead she took the first step toward being human.
David Sutcliffe, as Nick, is totally confident. He has a demeanor that makes you think he knows things, and he could really be Santa. He handles Meredith masterfully and the chemistry between him and Benz is complex and grows.
Aidan Wojtak-Hissong is fairly unknown, but quite cute as Tyler. He also plays the you-can't-fool-me kid pretty well.
My only real complaint about the movie is that some transitions are forced which interferes with the flow and feeling of the movie.
