THE SANTA CLAUSE 2 (2002)

EW's GRADE
B

Details Release Date: Nov 01, 2002; Rated: G; Length: 105 Minutes; Genres: Comedy, Holiday; With: Tim Allen; Distributor: Buena Vista Pictures

Tim Allen, a master of throwaway hipness camouflaged in square sweaters, presides over a sequel to the 1994 family comedy The Santa Clause that's as snappy and well reinforced as Santa's pajamas. Now Santa needs to find a wife. While the usual polyester holiday cheer ensues, a scene of Allen on a blind date with Molly Shannon is spiked eggnog for the boomer soul.
