Just waiting to see it tonight! It's a shame such an interesting idea wasn't turned into a tight, exhilarating ride under 90 minutes. Why drag it out and make it feel so unnecessarily long and dumb?

I can never get enough of "Home Alone" style plots. The way families resolve their issues and overcome obstacles to save the holiday is truly in the Christmas spirit, and David Harbour makes the best Santa Claus.

Like an adult film in terms of graphic violence, but with the intelligence of a children's movie.

Okay, here's the translation: It was a rainy night in Vancouver. We'd just finished some Thai noodles when he asked if I wanted to catch a movie; he had some points to use. I said it depended on how far the cinema was and what was playing. Turns out, the movie theater was just 200 meters away. And that’s how we ended up seeing this. It was a total blast. I've watched Love Actually every Christmas for the past four years, but I think Violent Night is my Christmas movie this year. Merry Christmas, everyone!

A brutal and darkly comedic take on the traditional Christmas tale, Violent Night brings a fresh twist to the holiday genre. Santa Claus, played by David Harbour, delivers a gruesome present to the team of mercenaries who dares to ruin Christmas. With plenty of action and witty humour, this film is a delight for those who enjoy a dash of violence with their eggnog. Harbour's performance as a vengeful Santa is both terrifying and charismatic, making for a wild and unforgettable ride.

"A dark and twisted holiday thriller, Violent Night brings a new level of intensity to the traditional Christmas movie. When a group of mercenaries takes a wealthy family hostage on Christmas Eve, they are met with an unexpected and formidable opponent - a rough-around-the-edges Santa Claus. With plenty of action, suspense, and dark humor, this film is a wild and entertaining ride from start to finish, redefining the jolly old elf for a new generation."
