Great example of an old-fashioned, pure-at-heart escapist event movie that doesn't pretend to be anything that it's not and has boat loads of fun being its own ludicrous self.

It's easily one of the freshest, sharpest and most enjoyable films of this year.

The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful

Elf man truly surpasses any movie I've ever watched. When I was forced into watching this five years ago, I had low expectations, but I never expected it to become my favorite movie. I haven't watched it in about five years, but as I remember, the actor playing Ryan was truly amazing. I hope he's doing big things now! I think I saw him in a Geico commercial a few years back. Impressive!

Bursting at the seems with every imaginable trope and cliché, this film will entertain parts of you that you didn't know existed. With a weak plot and worse acting, this movie proves to be so terrible that it's hilarious. It brings countless new treasures to the Christmas movie genre, from the magically alive fruitcake to the power of mistletoe (hint: it's not what you expect). In an unprecedented mash-up of Christmas magic and superhero action, Elf-Man provides an cinematic experience like no other. This film is sure to join our family's list of traditional Christmas films, and to be enjoyed every year with a stiff glass of eggnog and countless bouts of laughter.A word of warning: at a few unfortunate points, the movie does have some intentional comedic moments. Simply grimace at these and move on to laugh at the rest of the film.

The movie had premise based on a half-baked plot but the acting on "wee- man's" part is absolutely horrible. Completely obvious he's lost interest in his own character and the movie altogether by the halfway mark. Poor directors can only do so much with what they're given. Fans of Jason Acuna should stick with the Jackass series and look for nothing else of interest out of this guy. Every actor in the movie outshines "Wee-Man" by an enormous amount. The kids in the movie deserve an Oscar in comparison to Jason's acting. This movie is not worth the time it takes to watch it. Children of younger ages might enjoy Elf-Man but I strongly suggest passing this one over in lieu of just about anything else to watch.

A really bad Christmas movie about Elf who helps a family in trouble. The father is a scientist and has some kind of invention that some bad guys want to steal. The mother pf the family is dead but there is no explanation why or how, just so a there can be a love story involved. This is a real kids movie and not worth seeing for people over 12 years. The story is bad as so is the acting, there is hardly any Christmas feeling and some parts remind of Home Alone but much worse. Not worth wasting time away. Weeman should not quite his day job. Feels like all the actors re reading the lines. The only thing that is OK are the special effect but they look ridiculous in this movie.
