8 Bit Christmas

If a kid sets his sights on a toy at the beginning of the movie, I don’t care how many lessons about Christmas or materialism the kids needs to learn, he should GET that goddamn toy at the end of the movie. So, this throwback comedy tries to teach a bunch of “Treasure of the Sierra Madre” lessons about greed and materialism, but at the end: the kid gets a dumb present that he NEVER asked for. Dumb and lame, not bittersweet. A big, derivative letdown.
