4 out of 5 stars Great family movie.......2007-01-03

So glad to have this movie on DVD. It is truly
a great family movie and enjoyed by all.
Really gets you in the mood for the Christmas
season.

4 out of 5 stars "I taught Vern everything he knows about Nuclear Physics" - Ernest.......2006-10-23

This a good movie to use as an introduction to the Ernest character. We see Ernest go through the usual routine of being his clumsy, stupid self, but his persona is dashed with a peculiar hint of altruism in this particular Christmas movie.

Ernest is working as a cab driver, and who should his next fare be? Why, it's Old St. Nick himself!

When Ernest asks Santa to pay, Santa finds out he accidentally mixed up his US currency with a large batch of Mr. Funtime play money. Oops!

Ernest cuts the old guy a break and lets Santa ride for free. The boss of the cab company isn't too pleased upon hearing this, as you might imagine, and we see Ernest get fired.

Ernest is bummed, so he and his new friend Harmony go to visit his buddy Vern. We never actually see the infamous Vern, and we can only assume Vern is the cameraman. It doesn't take Ernest long to wreck up Vern's house while attempting to decorate it for the holiday season.

Meanwhile, Santa's running into more trouble. Someone calls the cops on him for "pretending to be Santa" and he goes to prison. Not only that, but he discovers he accidentally left his magic sack of toys with that fool Ernest. Poor Santa. He's forgetting a lot of important things. No wonder he's out there trying to find a guy to replace him. In fact, he's already chosen a guy named Joe at the Children's Museum to be the new Santa. If he can just get out of jail and reach Joe, he can make everything right in time for Christmas again.

Can Ernest return the magic sack to Santa and get him out of prison so he can pass the torch to the new Santa? Can Ernest save Christmas? You'll have to endure quite a few amusing Ernest antics to find out. I particularly enjoy his disquise as a snake handler.

All in all, a great Christmas movie for families, and quite funny to boot. However, if you're willing to sacrifice the family feel of the movie for something with even more laughs, you can try National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation.

1/10/07 - Recently I've been thinking, "You know, that Ernest Saves Christmas movie is very, very much like the business world of today. Everything's all screwed up, and only gets worked out at the last split-freaking-second. Man, it's a miracle we all don't get fired every single day!"

5 out of 5 stars My Family's Favorite Christmas Movie!.......2005-12-08

I love this movie! It is a beautiful blend of great comedy and heartwarming sentimentality so perfect for true Christmas spirit!
We watch this classic every Christmas, and always come away from it with hilarious laughter and a teary eye or two.
