Synopsis
Fred Claus (Vince Vaughn) has lived his entire life in his brother’s very large shadow. Fred tried, but could hardly live up to the example set by the younger Nicholas(Paul Giamatti), who was just a perfect. True to form, Nicholas grew up to be the model of giving, while Fred became the polar opposite. Over Mrs. Claus’ objections, Nicholas agrees to help his brother on one condition: that he come to the North Pole and earn the money he needs by working in Santa’s workshop. The trouble is that Fred isn’t exactly elf material and, with Christmas fast approaching, Fred could jeopardize the jolliest holiday of the year.

5.0 out of 5 stars Heartfelt Family film, 27 Nov 2008

By	Heather "H" (southminster) - See all my reviews

I watched Fred Claus in the cinema last year and LOVED it. You see Saint Nicholas' birth and some of his childhood growing up with his older brother Fred. Unfortunately due to Nicholas' saintly nature poor Fred feels that he is living in his brother's shadow and holds an anger aimed at poor Nicholas because of this.

This Christmas is different to other Christmasses as it looks like poor Santa is being shut down as Children's present requests are increasing every year and Santa hurts his back and is therefore unable to do his duty on Christmas eve. Only a Claus is able to ride the sleigh....

Will Fred Claus be able to understand the meaning of Christmas and help his brother, and if he does is there a chance he will be able to deliver all of the presents in time before sunrise. I am definately buying this dvd so I can watch it this Christmas as well.

4.0 out of 5 stars A fun festive cracker, 28 Nov 2008

By	mummy spoon - See all my reviews

Though this is never going to be up there with the christmas classics such as The snowman and It's a wonderful life its a very funny film that will get you in the festive spirit and if you don't like all those other sickly sweet xmas films than this might be an option for the whole family to enjoy.
