I would have expected more of a British Christnas film... first if all... the birth of the kids was a joke... so badly made!!! The characters are impossible and not even a little bit believable. The bossnis detestable from.the get go. The mate is an idiot and the townsfolk are too fairy-tailish. The only characters I enjoyed were the children and the animals, they were a cuteness overload, although the children were overly childishly scripted. Then the ridiculousness of it, all exaggeratted to the point of not being able to stop watching it but shaking my head in disbelief during the whole thing!!!
