First thing's first: Parents, this movie is definitely family and child friendly. So if you're looking for a fun and delightful film to watch during the holidays or even a Sunday afternoon, I recommend Santa's Letters. It doesn't have the big Hollywood budget but with that, it makes up for it in charm and honesty in its storytelling. The director/writer did an amazing job keeping you engaged in the movie and following along as you watch the characters grow. If you're a fan of holiday movies or Christmas movie but are also tired of the gimmicks, gross humor, or computer graphics, I suggest adding Santa's Letters to your Christmas List!

Christmas is my favorite time of year and so I have a particular soft spot for Christmas movies and this might very well be my favorite Christmas production of all time. Apparently the use of adults playing kids isn't done to be quirky or meant to serve any point, but simply done out of necessity as it's very low budget. In the end it just adds to the charm. You can tell everybody is fully committed and gives it their all. All done in the spirit of giving as a xmas movie should be. The end result is a joyous, lovable and whimsical film. You are even treated to some cute and kooky animation.
On the one hand I'd love to see a remake with a bigger budget and on another I'd worry it might lose something in the process. As it is, it's a very special Christmas gift.
