Mira Sorvino (best supporting actress Oscar winner) headlines this Christmas romantic comedy with more fantastical elements than Dear Santa (2011) with Amy Acker (Person of Interest and Angel). Sorvino performs as Mrs. Santa Claus who discovers a letter addressed to her and feeling neglected by Mr. Santa finds herself going to Las Vegas to grant a little girl's Christmas wish for a new father. This is a cute, but not flawless romantic comedy. The clownish elf seems more than off-putting at times as is the stereotypical casino bouncer. Somehow the movie holds itself together with the parallel storylines of Mr. And Mrs. Santa and finding romance for the single mother who works at a casino. All the loose ends manage to get tied up, but barely and there are cheesy scenes that almost derail the movie. But the script stays the course with some tender moments along with a decent but predictable ending that help the movie end up being an decent, if not great, movie to watch at Christmas time.
