Realtor goes out to survey the property or whatever the hell they do. She takes some notes on those little flip-out notepads that they stopped making around the time everyone got an iPhone. 3 bedrooms. But, the twist! Her handwriting is *shit.* Maybe it smudges a little. Who knows. She heads back to the realtor store and hand the notes off to an intern. She's got a hot date, doesn't have time…

In what world does this movie require so much fucking attention? But you know what? I wouldn’t have it any other way.

positive · AI labelView post →The Santa Clause 3 is not only the second 2006 film that stars Alan Arkin and Abigail Breslin (after Little Miss Sunshine), but also the second 2006 film that stars Tim Allen and Abigail's brother Spencer (after Zoom).
neutral · AI labelView post →I will happily enjoy The Santa Clause & most of The Santa Clause 2, but by the time The Santa Clause 3 cues up, I remember what a wanker Tim Allen is, & I stop watching. Which is a shame, because as bad as the third film is, Martin Short is a good dude.

neutral · AI labelView post →ahhh yes that's fair I dunno if this qualifies but I am like very weirdly passionate about the idea that Fred Claus is incredibly underrated in weird ways. That and "The Santa Clause 3 is the best of the trilogy" are my most cancellable Christmas movie takes.
positive · AI labelView post →39. The Santa Clause 3: The Escape Clause Honestly for a Christmas movie video game tie in it wasn't that bad. Jumping was super stiff and collision was mad funky at times but it had variety and was mildly charming. Music was really quite forgettable that's for certain. 5/10

Wild Hogs - perhaps the most un-funny movie I've ever seen Jack - miserable and sappy The Santa Clause 3 - Martin Short being way too much Killing of a Sacred Dear - I love other Lanthimos, but no, not this one, just unpleasant
negative · AI labelView post →Well I'm in the minority with this... I actually, admittedly narrowly, enjoyed 'The Santa Clause 3: The Escape Clause' - terrible title, mind. Most other reviewers clearly didn't and I respect that, but I genuinely found it alright. It's definitely the weakest entry of the series, yet I still found it entertaining enough. Martin Short (Jack Frost) is the star of this second sequel to 1994's 'The Santa Clause', outshining lead Tim Allen; who is still decent, by the way. I love Short's character…
