This film pays great tribute to our modern Christmas culture with references to the Franken-Bass TV specials of my childhood and even gets a very funny Keebler elf reference in as well.

Nope, it doesn't make any sense to have Will Farrel to play the Elf, somewhat disturbing and childish (Yes, Slapsticks) Plus there were countless of plot holes I could poke though. Caan must find the kid in himself to from the Scrooge like publisher to a loving husband and father, and that will take a Christmas miracle. One of the last great modern Christmas films, Elf benefits greatly from my favorite performance of Will Ferrell's and the great supporting cast. The perfect holiday movie for the cynical New Yorker (or anybody from any other metropolis) is so colorful and cheerful, yet not one that will give you a sugar overdose. I am sorry that there so many people that were not mature enough to enjoy the artistry of this film.And I worry that being shown so much that folks might have a backlash--might start to hate the film even though it's decent family entertainment and is worth your time. What more could a fantasy film deliver, and a a bonus the plaintive voice of YES front man Jon Anderson singing the song over the final credits. Buddy (Will Ferrell) was accidentally transported to the North Pole as a toddler and raised to adulthood among Santa's elves. Having not seen this until now, I felt like a complete freeze miser for unintentionally missing it, although I did see the musical on Broadway in 2012. However, the film is unable to avoid falling into the usual cliches and stereotypes that Christmas films usually follow.
