Review of Fred Claus (2007) by Cassius J — 24 Dec 2016

This is one of the worst movies I've ever seen. Ever. Fred Claus is a spiteful, pathetic, jealous, unlikable, selfish, cruel, sociopathic, poorly written, poorly acted...CUNT. And he's supposed to be the main character? The man we're supposed to root for? Paul Giamatti as Santa was good, and Kevin Spacey gave a great performance, as usual. But the character was as uselsess as Reggie from Lady in the Water.

Oh, and here's the thing that really makes my blood boil. There's a scene in the orphanage, where a kid named Slam is mocking the other kids for wrting to Santa, asking him to give them families. He laughs at them, calls them stupid for, in my opinon, having something he doesn't. And that something is called 'hope'. When Fred sees this, he doesn't put him on the naughty list like he deserves. No! He puts the little fucker on the nice list. Let me ask you an honest question, Internet. If you saw a little boy murdering a rat or punching his classmate in the face, wouylod you defend him?

The only reason Fred protects the kid is because the kid's a miserable, bitter little shit who feels so bad about himself he takes it out on other people. Just like Fred! Good God, some of the things that Fred says to his own brother, his own BROTHER is so disgusting that I wanted to break his legs! This is a disgusting person, and the shit he says would scar someone for life!

Suffice it to say, this is the worst Christmas movie ever made, and one of the worst movies I have ever seen in my entire life.
