It was actually as good as the first one!

And Goldie Hawn had a main role since her cameo appearance in the first film. And I didn’t expect Julian Dennison appearing in the film.

The whole thing was just epic, joyful, heartwarming and funny.

My only complaint was that Belsnickel repented too soon; he was a pretty awesome bad guy that gave Santa a run for his money. I mean, I knew there was some good in him, but I would’ve hoped that he would see the error of his ways in the third film – if that would ever happen!

Still, Christmas Chronicles 2 was very entertaining, and a good way to lift your spirits during this month.

A disappointment, all in all.

I very much enjoyed the first film, but ‘The Christmas Chronicles: Part Two’ is a much weaker entry. Kurt Russell, though still enjoyable, isn’t as entertaining as in the 2018 film. It is nice to see him reprise his role though, likewise with Darby Camp, Kimberly Williams-Paisley and Judah Lewis.

New additions include Tyrese Gibson, Jahzir Bruno and Julian Dennison. I’m a fan of Tyrese from the ‘Fast & Furious’ franchise, but he is underused here; when he does feature, he’s quite laidback. Bruno is alright, while Dennison is hit-and-miss; he has one or two good moments. Goldie Hawn, meanwhile, has an expanded role.

The elves are as great as before, as are the special effects in general. I’d say they are probably more creative with this premise than they were with the 2018 production, but ultimately it doesn’t come out as strongly – this one doesn’t feel as Christmassy as its predessceor. Also, the musical number is a misfire.

Close to being a good film, but just a little off unfortunately.

Feeling gone; glitz ad-nausea
I rewatched the first film right after finishing this, because I had forgotten what I even liked to begin with that was missing here… turns out it was a lot. Firstly, the main character is gone, Teddy (Judah Lewis)… but he’s the lucky one because those who are present are all only half-there. There’s no family thread, except one that gets sloppily bookended to the beginning and end with the care of a 90’s sitcom (essentially a Full House subplot quality, teen girl temper tantrum). The first film they were dealing with a recent death, a cynical world, the son slipping into a realistic life of crime. Where do we start out here? On vacation??? Yes, their first world problem is that Kate (Darby Camp) is upset her mom is dating an awesome guy. I say problem, but this isn’t really dealt with as she immediately gets away from the entire cast of her family to have a separate adventure hanging out with Santa (Kurt Russell) and wife (Goldie Hawn) in a bland mess of cliches that only a very young child will like (it does have bright colors flashing).

The rest of the film is a sloppy CGI romp through the North Pole, feeling much like the mess of Santa Clause 2 & 3, super villain and all. We’re told the title Christmas Chronicles is no longer their video camera footage (as video camera films are no longer popular) but a series of novels (no doubt to establish a possible franchise and bunch of sequels). The film isn’t set in a realistic nowadays world, but 100% in a fantasy, so essentially a totally different type a film and NOT a continuation of the first film. This would be like Christmas Vacation being set entirely in Clark Griswald’s sex dream and acting like it’s a sequel. It makes no sense. The elves are more like Gremlins (thank you Chris Columbus, just make Gremlins 3 already) than the edgy but sweet creatures from the first, with a goofy drug Elf-bane explanation of why they are snarling.

A bland villain pulls the plot along screaming all the way, instead of the protagonists (which should lead it). Their only motivation is to stop the bad guy, whose motivation is to stop the good guy. That’s it. Spy vs spy. That’s the movie. Absent are the bystander characters that made the first film fun, the cops, the waitress at the restaurant, the guy who stole the car first, the people in jail. We don’t get any characters to really see their transformation due to their seeing Santa is real, ya know the magic of the first film. Santa is still cool, but without his sarcastic edge, snappy lines. In short, the fun is totally gone. It’s got 10x the effects and none of the heart or story-building that made the original worth watching over and over. Terrible. Absolutely inexcusable. Watch the first one, ignore this one & future sequels.

Once is enough
First film was class, and the whole family enjoyed it. The second however !!! Painful Lack of imagination, poor storyline leaves you falling asleep. Every Xmas I’d watch the first one happily, the second once is enough. Never to be viewed again
