Profile of The Santa Clause

The Santa Clause can be described as feel good, touching, and humorous. The plot revolves around self discovery, a "fish out of water", and disorder. The main genres are comedy, fantasy, and adventure. In terms of style, The Santa Clause has a Hollywood tone. In approach, it is fantastical. It takes place in the 1990s. The Santa Clause has received attention for being a blockbuster. It is well suited for kids and a family outing.

Summary of The Santa Clause

When Santa Claus gets killed in a freak accident after being startled on the rooftop of a house, it looks like Christmas is ruined. But fortunately, just before his death, the jolly, gift-giver passed the torch to ad executive Scott Calvin (Tim Allen), who finishes the job of bestowing holiday cheer on all. When he finally reaches on the North Pole, however, Scott learns that he can't give up the job -- he's become the next Santa Claus. (THAT'S the Santa Clause!). Scott returns home, only to find himself slowly changing into the pudgy, white-haired old man so beloved of children... and to find that everyone around him considers him utterly and completely mad.

Entertainment Weekly

Watch for the ''Mrs. Doubtfire'' syndrome: In Santa drag and padded for laughs, Scott demonstrates how to be a more sensitive, more funsy parent than boring old Mom. Full Review

TV Guide

Nevertheless, The Santa Clause is a charming, if mild, fantasy, distinguished by a gentle directorial touch that strikes a deft balance between dramatic and fantastic elements. Full Review
