Plot Story : Television sitcom star Tim Allen made his big screen debut with this light, family-friendly holiday comedy. Allen stars as Scott Calvin, the divorced dad of Charlie (Eric Lloyd). Scott is distressed to learn that his ex-wife Laura (Wendy Crewson) and Charlie's psychiatrist stepfather Neal (Judge Reinhold) have informed his son that there is no Santa Claus. While a sullen Charlie visits his dad on Christmas Eve, a noise on the roof brings them outside, where Scott startles the intruder, who tumbles from the roof. It turns out that there is a Santa after all, and Scott has just accidentally killed him. Because of a legal technicality known as "the Santa clause," Scott inherits the jolly old elf's job. As the next year passes, Scott rapidly gains weight, grows a white beard and meets the elf Bernard (David Krumholtz) -- who is the one who really runs the North Pole -- while Charlie regains his Christmas spirit. However, Neal becomes concerned about Scott's sudden change in appearance and insistence that he's Santa, and he forces him to undergo a psychiatric evaluation. Director John Pasquin previously directed Allen in the TV series Home Improvement and would team with him again for Jungle 2 Jungle (1997). ~ Karl Williams, Rovi

Review For Movie The Santa Clause
This is a hip, likable spin on the seasonal icon told with a deft mixture of comedy and sentimentality.Leonard Klady-Variety
The movie steers a shrewd course between bracing cynicism and old-fashioned make-believe.
Derek Adams-Time Out
Home Improvement fans will find plenty of laughs and may even consent to going to this movie with their little brothers and sisters.
Patricia S. McCormick-New York Times
Kids of most ages will be able to follow -- and enjoy -- this comic fantasy.
Desson Thomson-Washington Post
Despite its charms, the movie didn't push over the top into true inspiration.
Roger Ebert-Chicago Sun-Times
Balances the sugar with the spice, which Allen sprinkles on just right.
Rita Kempley-Washington Post
Allen's schtick is a jabbermouth know-it-all.
-Empire Magazine
Heartwarming family tale for both kids and adults.
Charles Cassady-Common Sense Media
While the film breaks no new ground, it offers the kind of simple, well-crafted, family entertainment that used to be a staple of the Disney studio.
-TV Guide's Movie Guide
This movie has charm to spare and it's hard to resist.
Jeffrey M. Anderson-Combustible Celluloid
A fun Christmas tale.
Willie Waffle-WaffleMovies.com
Agreeable family fare that'll please the young 'uns but that adults will find only slightly diverting.
Michael Dequina-TheMovieReport.com
...the closest thing we've had in the last twenty years to a genuine Christmas classic.
John J. Puccio-Movie Metropolis
Overrated and surprisingly sour.
Nell Minow-Movie Mom at Yahoo! Movies
while still further proof Tim Allen was always better suited to Television, is one of the Toolman's best forays into film. The bottom line is kids will get a kick out of it, and parents can rest assure by the end of it's hour and a half they'll have had s
Clint Morris-Moviehole
Even if the film bogs down a touch in its own sense of cuteness near the end, this film will do as a family-wide X-mas time waster if everyone has It's a Wonderful Life overload.
James Rocchi-Netflix
[Director] John Pasquin brings to it a heavy-handedness more appropriate to the subject matter of, say, his telefilm Don't Touch My Daughter.
Bill Chambers-Film Freak Central
A minor classic
Christopher Null-Filmcritic.com
A friend and I go to a 'sort of trashy' movie every Christmas. This was less trashy than most.
Alex Sandell-Juicy Cerebellum
Very funny at times, and certainly worth seeing. It's probably the best modern Christmas movie out there to rent and watch with your kids.
Larry Carroll-Countingdown.com
Os roteiristas conseguiram realizar uma proeza: encontrar um novo ângulo para contar uma velha história.
