Nice Christmas movie. Like most Christmas movies, this one is not a masterpiece of cinema, but at least the Finns tried to break the monotony of merry Christmas stories with the one a little darker. I wouldn't classify it as a horror, though there are some elements. It's more of a dark fantasy adventure, also suitable for slightly older children. Kind of like "Gremlins" (1984), for example. The script is simple but effective, based on: "The real Santa was totally different. The Coca-Cola Santa is just a hoax." The acting and directing follow an example of a scenario - simple and effective. A very interesting idea, not a particularly tense but compelling atmosphere and a healthy dose of black humor, with a very witty plot twist at the end. I'm not thrilled, but I'm quite pleased.
