Got to see a funny and mildly interesting concept take a nosedive through a chimney and burst into flames with the lame execution and annoyingly bad screenplay.
The tone of it was confusing even with the preknowledge of it's rating.
The tonal changes just didn't blend... It was like watching Home Alone & Bad Santa featuring movies getting mashed together with the pg13 rating being covered with a thin R rated filter or somethin.
The only watchable part of this Christmas action comedy was those last 30mins.
The sledgehammer powered action sequences were decent and i liked the home alone style booby traps getting that gory payoff.
But the only interesting and takeaway kill for me was the "Scrooge's". That was plain oof and awesome :)
Harbour did a good job but the writing did him real bad here and his version of savage Santa felt weakly written, not praiseworthy or memorable and definitely not that entertaining.
