   Is Fred Claus a good movie?

   • The biggest problem with Fred Claus isn't that it's not very good, it's that it pulls a bait-and-switch on parents expecting to see Hollywood's favorite bad boy in a film they can feel comfortable taking their kids to. It's no improvement on Bad Santa, or National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation, for that matter.

   Will Fred Claus ever go down in history?

   • Fred Claus will never go down in history as a holiday classic, or even one of Vaughn's better known films, but a sterling cast lifts up what could have been easy mediocrity. A turbulent ride that shifts tonal gears and messages like oscillations in the weather, ending in mythological frostbite.

   Is Fred Claus a bad picture?

   • Fred Claus is not an entirely bad picture, but it is a decidedly bland one. Vaughn's act may be toned down a bit, but he still plays the same fast-talking, quip-spouting arrogant schmuck that he usually does, and it wears thin real fast.

   Is Fred Claus a Christmas classic?

   • FRED CLAUS is unlikely to become a contemporary Christmas classic, but it features a top-notch cast, slapstick gags, and plenty of North Pole mayhem. Most of the film's humor comes from Vaughn in improv mode. His lightning-paced delivery is always a treat.

   Nov 9, 2007 · “Fred Claus” is a tacky would-be comedy about family dysfunction that fronts some Scrooge attitude only to dissolve into slobbering sentimentality and canned uplift.

   Fred Claus has an identity crisis. Director David Dobkin (who most recently assaulted moviegoers with the R-rated sex comedy Wedding Crashers ) wants to deliver kid-friendly PG holiday sparkle but can’t resist adding in all the cynical stuff that he thinks will appeal to adults, too.
