This could be a contender for the best Christmas film ever made, if it wasn't for Tim Allen's "The Santa Clause", which will always have a special place in my heart. I can definitely identify with the main character of this film, Buddy, whose positivity and endless enthusiasm for Christmas has no boundaries. His enthusiasm is infectious and if you need reminding why Christmas is one of the most exciting times of the year, then this film will certainly provide you with the festive spirit.

As with all great family films, it can be enjoyed by kids and grown ups too. It has lots of slapstick, as well as more subtle gags. Due to his naivety and lack of understanding the world outside of the North Pole, Buddy gets himself and others into some hilarious situations.

The soundtrack and background music help provide the feel-good factor in the film. The acting provides us with some really loveable characters. Like all of the best Christmas films, it can be viewed year after year without ever going stale. A must-watch for every human being with a heart and a sense of humour.

Some of what I am saying is pure nostalgia, but “Elf” is a near-perfect Christmas movie that always manages to put me in the holiday spirit no matter my mood. Its high-energy story, lovable characters, impressive visuals and cinematography, and subtly sweet music score make this an undying classic with everything a Christmas geek like myself could ever want out of a Christmas-themed movie. Sure, the rest of you can love your “Home Alone,” “A Christmas Story,” and even Die Hard Christmas films, and I can understand why cause I love them too. To me, though, Elf will always and forever be my favorite out of all the well-known Christmas classics, and I will keep watching this film every holiday season every year for the rest of my life.

(Final Grade: A)

Elf is a classic Christmas movie that is sure to bring joy to the whole family. Will Ferrell stars as Buddy, a human raised as an elf in the North Pole. After discovering his true identity, Buddy embarks on a journey to New York City to find his real father. Along the way, he meets a variety of characters, including a cynical children's book author, a department store Santa, and a beautiful department store worker. The movie is full of laughs, heartwarming moments, and a few lessons about family and friendship. The cast is excellent, with Ferrell delivering a hilarious performance as Buddy. The movie also features some great music, including a memorable duet between Ferrell and Zooey Deschanel. Elf is a great holiday movie that will bring joy to all who watch it.
