Dylan McDermott, Elizabeth Perkins and Mara Wilson star in this charming update on the beloved 1947 classic. After a department store Santa (Richard Attenborough), who claims his name is Kris Kringle, is declared insane and put on trial, everyone’s faith in the magic of Christmas is put to the test – including the man’s boss (Perkins), who’s raising her daughter (Wilson) not to believe in Santa.

Not better than the original, but still smiley holiday fare.
What Parents Need to Know
Parents need to know that this treacly holiday film introduces the idea that Santa Claus might not be real, and comes to the conclusion that he is indeed real. The film includes several mild physical altercations between Santa Claus and another man, including one where Santa knocks the man down with his cane. A fake Santa is seen drinking alcohol and one brief scene shows a bar full of men dressed as Santas drinking beer and some acting drunk. A fake Santa's pants slip down a bit as he climbs a ladder, revealing the top of his rear end. A bit of mild language and yelling pops up.
