El vuelo del reno

What the previous reviewer neglected to mention is that the sets used for the film were magical, in particular Santa's village, perfect. just how you would imagine an old time Christmas village to be. The script wasn't great, the plot was a cute premise, but the sets were a triumph.

I love this movie - it's one of my all-time favourite Christmas movies. The problem is, it never seems to be aired on TV anymore, and you can't find it online anywhere, or for sale, either. I just want to be able to watch it again!!! Anyone know where to find it? I've found a couple of sites selling it, but for completely ridiculous prices.

I liked this for the most part but Jerry was a bit annoying with how ignorant he was about wanting to exploit the North Pole. The ending was good.

I've watched this movie with my family many times and there is one line that we could never make out. The female student who originally gave Jerry the book says something to her Grandpa as the sleigh is taking off. Can anyone quote that line?

The Christmas Secret was touted as a wonderful film, but I was truly disappointed. They even sold VHS and DVD copies of the film when it was over, which leads me to think the producers were really proud of this project. As a screen actor myself I felt most of the performances were phoned in, although Beau Bridges, as Nick, did have a moment or two. If I were Richard Thomas I would not put this film on my otherwise fine resume. It was an embarrassment. I had been a fan since his Waltons days, but have found myself untempted to watch any of his subsequent work, so poor was this offering.

In defence of the actors, the directing was stilted, mechanical, and thoroughly amateurish.

I hope this is not considered a spiteful review and negative assumptions made about my qualifications as a critic. I turned the movie on because it had a good cast and I was prepared to enjoy the film. However I would challenge any one out there to watch this film and not wish for their money back, even though it was on T.V.
