It&#039;s part comedy, part action adventure, part horror, so it&#039;s not your typical Christmas film. However, it does have some of the familiar Christmas tropes:<ul>

<li data-xf-list-type="ul">there is a redemption story,</li>
<li data-xf-list-type="ul">Christmas seems doomed until someone saves the day</li>
<li data-xf-list-type="ul">the real Santa Claus appears.</li>
</ul>A rich family gather to celebrate Christmas when a group of armed intruders get into their house to rob the millions of dollars that are in their safe. While the crime is being carried out, the real Santa Claus is visiting the house and he gets drawn into saving the family. Although the plot sounds outlandish, I couldn&#039;t help but being drawn into the film and accepting what was I was seeing as being perfectly normal. The film has strong Home Alone vibes at times when the child of the family sets booby traps for the robbers, some of which are so horrific that I couldn&#039;t watch the screen, something that I&#039;ve never experienced before while viewing a film. Overall, I liked this film way more than I expected I would.</blockquote>
