I have seen all three movies in the Santa Clause series and The Escape Clause should be exercised by the studio.
I am not saying this was a bad film, it was okay, but I think the first two movies were better and that they should probably avoid making a fourth movie.
The first part of the movie for me moved a bit slow, However the special effects were good, the writing was good and the chemistry between Martin Short (Jack Frost) and Tim Allen (Santa Claus) was great.
I am sure children will enjoy this movie and it will also keep the adults attention.
As far as the bonus features go, the blooper reel was not worth the space on the DVD it took up. I watched it and it seemed the reel would have been funny 0 if I had been there when they were filming the movie.
The behind the scenes were good, especially when they gave us some insight how they made the magic snow globe room. They also had a good piece on the creation and evolution of the Jack Frost Character. The behind the scenes also showed how the made the magic fireplace and where they got the idea for it's look.
Finally, the DVD bonuses included an alternate opening for the movie - which I really thought was better than the one they used. Since the series has ran over 12 y3ears, I felt the alternate opening which told you the story of how Tim Allen became Santa and how Mrs. Claus became Mrs. clause (in this short opening) would have been great for those who did not see the first two movies.
Overall I gave this film 3 out of a possible 5 Ho Ho Hos!
