Rated Show by the Epinions community Dec 20, 2003
Pros: Best Way to See Christmas in New York
Cons: A touch lacking in story content, but still worth the popcorn
Summary: Everyone should experience New York City during the holidays, and best from the comfort of a warm movie seat. The beautiful shop windows, the handmade decorations, the millions of bright lights that New York does SO well. Funny, Charming and Sweet, you

Pros: Cute, but unconvincing Katie Asner
Cons: Will Ferrell is simply not funny, nor is he charming in any way.
Summary: I am not a fan of Will Ferrell, to start off. But I saw a couple of very raving reviews on CNN and MS NBC, so I decided to suspend my low regard for Ferrell's poor acting ability and uninteresting personality. It got off to a slow start, but I

Pros: VERY VERY FUNNY
Cons: Could have been a bit longer
Summary: There aren't enough positive things I can say about this movie. It's definitely NOT just for kids. It will lift your spirits, make you laugh and make you cry. If you're a kid it will make your eyes sparkle .... and if you're an adult it will make you

Pros: A good family movie. Good for children who don't believe in Santa.
Cons: I just don't like the angry elf.
Summary: From Saturday night live to Old School and now to a even better and funnier movie...ELF. Will Farrel plays the role of Buddy which is an unusual elf. An elf that is bigger than usual, has a lower voice that the rest, and is missing the pointy ears.

Pros: Everyone liked it
Cons: not really
Summary: My family and I liked this movie pretty well. Nothing offensive for the kids. Not sorry I saw it and in fact, thought it was fun--a little silly, a little fantasy, a few laughs, and a nice ending. I am a sucker for holiday movies.

Pros: Ok for children, no sexual innuendos, bad language, or harsh violence.
Cons: Elf Will Farrell eats used gum from a NYC hand rail!!!
Summary: Hilarious scenes, ending was a bit mushy, casting choices were great, Will was brilliant, I laughed all through this movie. Bob Newheart did an excellent job as well. Elf was a sweet and tasteful film about someone trying to find his place in life.

Pros: A great kid friendly movie
Cons: Not one I would watch over and over again but well worth a matinee price
Summary: After much debate I and a gaggle of relatives with ages ranging from 6 weeks to 70 years went to see Elf over the Thanksgiving holiday. We loved it ; though my three year old was bored during several parts. The story line itself is a classic; bad guy

Pros: Very funny, imaginative, creative, surprising.
Cons: a few swear words here and there.
Summary: I really liked the movie, my family and I saw it and thought that it would end up being a lot worse than it was. We think it to be a good family movie. Will Ferrell was hilarious. I thought that there were some very interesting parts and that it was

Pros: A MOVIE FOR THE ENTIRE FAMILY.
"BE PERFORMANCE BY WILL FERRELL"
Cons: IN MY OPINION AN OVERALL BETTER MOVIE THAN THE "THE SANTA CLAUSE"
Summary: Those who criticize this type of movie, weren't around when it wasn't all about making the buck during Christmas. Rudolf the Red Nose Rain dear and Frosty have become a 0.99c VHS buy now and Flaunting, stupidity and Sex is the thing Now. This is an

Pros: Leaves you in a great mood!
Cons: non, just go see it
Summary: As an actor, Will Ferrell shows promise for hilarious movies, thus I am driven to see them. From the previews alone, I have been dying waiting for elf to come out. I found it to be hysterical, as well as touching. My boyfriend doesn't even like

Pros: Well written story with many big names - left open ending for a possible sequel
Cons: none
Summary: This is truely going to be a Christmas movie that will stand the test of time just as Miracle on 34th street and It's A Wonderful Life has. And will rank up there with I'll Be Home for Christmas and Santa Clause as the best modern Christmas movie. Elf i

Pros: Will Ferrel gives a die-of-laughter performance
Cons: because of the childish story, many people won't understand this movie isa goof on itself
Summary: This movie is pure comedy genius. From the first sceen to the last the entire movie is childish and to the naked eye it would seem the movie is for kids. But every second of the movie is filled with underground humor and adult content that even the peopl
