Clevercell Very disappointing...

Fluentiama Perfect cast and a good story

Dotsthavesp I wanted to but couldn't!

Rio Hayward All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.

Michael Ledo Dax the Ax (Mike "the Miz") has just foreclosed on the Hope Springs Youth Center in Santa Monica...perhaps a pun intended. In an act of irony, Dax the Ax gets the ax at work and must leave his house in an unrealistic time frame. In a subplot, Santa's Little Helper retires and he must fill the position. He wants to give the job to Dax the Ax, a "normie" (muggle already taken) who he believes has the qualities to do the job...deep down. He tasks Billy (AnnaLynne McCord) a round eared mutant elf to test his qualities for the position. Meanwhile Eleanor (Saraya-Jade Bevis/ Paige) believes she deserves the job because her father had the job. She is portrayed as being a mean person complete with a British accent. Her role is minimal.If you have ever seen a film before, you have a good idea how this ends up. The path is slightly less predictable. The film is for kids. There is a bar room fight, although no one really gets hurt, but fists and objects fly. Certainly not worse than a Three Stooges episode. There is the use of the word "freakin'" as a substitute for a cuss word. Otherwise very kid friendly. AnnaLynne McCord provides eye candy for dad, and The Miz takes off his shirt for mom.Not a bad film. Don't expect it to be an annual iconic classic.

kiwibeeper-1 Santa's Little Helper uncovers the seedier side of working at the North Pole. While it is expected to be a place of working together in love and harmony to bring joy to children around the world, this film shows what Santa doesn't want us to see. Paige as Eleanor gave us a clear look at how working at the North Pole has become competitive and political. And, in case you were thinking that's just the bad guys, this showed 'the good guys' (Santa and Mrs. Claus with their darling chosen misfit and the other elite staff), cheering Dax in fighting dirty as well, then kicked out Eleanor for unsportsmanlike conduct. Clearly, they only saw infractions to the rules when it suited them. Oh, and if you're looking for a family movie little kids can enjoy without supervision, what would it be without a wrestler lying around and welcoming people into his home wearing just his gonch? My mistake, he did have a robe covering his shoulders. Dax'es character arch didn't seem sufficient to me to get the job--he needed continued training before locking that in. However, he did show his selflessness in using magic to return a swindler wearing only Speedos to stand in front of a crowd of teens to be brought to justice and save the community centre.I was working my way through many Netflix Christmas romance movies trying to catch some Christmas spirit. Soon, I found I was looking for which movie would be the actual worst one on there. I almost went with anything with Haylie Duff in it, but then I came across two that topped her. Santa's Little Helper did not take the trophy, but came in as a close second. The winner was Small Town Santa starring Dean Cain. The highlight of that one was the decal on the back of his computer, "Real heroes don't wear capes." I'm sure there are others worse than this, but I lost my motivation to find it.

thephantomgoddess Santas little helper is a great serving of comedy, action and some romance. I think this is the 1st family movie made by WWE studios in a while. I liked the acting by The Miz but was even more impressed by the acting by Paige (Saraya- Jade Belvis) I mean for her film debut she did amazing! Kudos to Paige! I also think Annaleyne McCord did a wonderful job as well playing Billie! I think that Santas Little Helper is a perfect holiday movie for all ages and there are some damn good funny scenes (not gonna say them. You have to watch the movie for yourself! This is the 2nd WWE Studios film I watched (the first being 12 Rounds 3: Lockdown starring Dean Ambrose) but I loved it so much that I said to myself after I watched it I'm gonna watch it again! It is a very sweet movie and I hope you love watching it as much as I did watching it! It is very amazing!

sesmith70 Again, the WWE thinks they can write movies, and they think their wrestlers can act. Wrong! This story is a lot like A Christmas Carol meets It's A Wonderful Life. The Miz is not a horrible actor, but he is too full of himself to be taken seriously as an actor. Saraya-Jade Bevis (known as Paige in the credits and in the ring) is actually very good in this, and in my opinion, is the reason the movie is even watchable. Miz's real life wife Maryse also appears in this movie as Melody, the bartender. I said it before, but WWE needs to stop with movies and stick with wrestling (which they are barely passing muster as well). The movie is cute and the younger fans of Miz and Paige will enjoy it. This would be a good movie for the kids to watch while the grown ups are fixing the Holiday meals. Put this in their stocking, but older kids may think it's so-so, but give it a chance.
