      At the end when Mr Stewart walks away from the toy store you can see he has difficulty walking, but in the wide shot of the street he is walking like a young man, not bothered by the snow at all.
    • Quotes

      Willamina: What's that?

      Quinn: My mom's favorite Christmas decoration from when she was a little girl. We used to hang it on the tree together.

      Willamina: It's nice. Don't let Ms. Stout see it, OK?

      Ms. Stout: Don't let Ms. Stout see what?

      Willamina: Nothing.

    This is NOT Scary...
    I am just laughing reading all the reviews of parents freaking out about how scary this movie is. When I watched it, it didn't even occur to me how dark some of the events were, but looking back, yes, it does get pretty dark at times for a Christmas movie about Santa and his puppy best friend. But it's not scary, and I'm trying not to judge, but when I read about 8 year old kids being scared and crying because of this movie, I can't help but laugh, and just think about how sheltered some kids are in this world. I know I come from a different era, and having watched Child's Play by age 8, I admit my tolerance for the macabre is higher than others. But if this movie is too scary for your kid, you might be a bit too overprotective and your kid is gonna have real bad smack of reality when they are not under your watchful eye.
