SWEET, FUNNY AND ORIGINAL, August 21, 2004

Darcie B (Ohio) –

This review is from: Elf (Infinifilm Edition) (DVD)

I rarely go see movies twice, but after taking my four children, I treated my parents and watched it again! You fall in love with Buddy, you just can’t help it! Will Ferrell is not the kooky nut in this one as in most of his movies, he truly shows the innocent, sweetness of Buddy the elf. Full of laughs, and not as predictable as you might think. I just can’t wait until it is released to purchase. I will own this one, please note that after viewing you will need to decorate your house for Christmas immediately !! 🙂

Bonkers But Beautiful, November 13, 2003

By

Phome “phome” (NY, USA) –

I loved this movie. It was totally bonkers: a human baby accidently ends up on the north pole and grows up among the elf community that supports Santa Claus. Buddy, as he comes to be known, knows that he’s “special” however, since he can’t keep up with the other elves. Never mind the fact that he’s about three times as tall as any of them and barely fits in the shower.

When he’s 30, and still young by Elf standards, he learns that he’s really a human. Buddy decides to go in search of his father (who’s on Santa’s naughty list), to find out where he belongs. He walks to New York (through the Lincoln tunnel), and is immediately run over by a cab. The chain of events starts at that moment …

Buddy is a delightful and enchanting character with many special talents and a childish personality. He is naive to the point of stupidity, but charming all the while. His lovable demeanour gains him friends in spite of his clumsy efforts. He is sweet, kind and generous. When his father at first rejects him, Buddy ends up in a department store where other elves (people who pretend to be Santa’s elves) are working, and stays up all night to decorate the place. When the department store Santa isn’t the real Santa, well, you can guess what happens …

Buddy eats spaghetti covered in syrup, smarties and pop tarts; he gets drunk in the mail room of his father’s office and his young half-brother shows him to ask a girl out on a date.

But all the while, things are looking bad for Santa Claus (and also Buddy’s father). How will Buddy rescue the day? When Santa crashes his sleigh in Central Park, it’s Buddy’s moment to shine.

Abstract, enchanting, child-like madness all make up this beautiful movie. Absolutely delightful and recommended to viewers of all ages. If you want a Christmas feel-good movie, this is it.
