The Santa Suit (TV Movie 2010)

The Santa Suit: Directed by Robert Vaughn. With Kevin Sorbo, Jodie Dowdall, Derry Robinson, Rosemary Dunsmore. Hunter Toys CEO Drake Hunter turned his father’s company from a cozy quality manufacturer into a ruthless, profitable business. After denying his staff any festive generosity again, the scrooge is suddenly and magically transformed into Kris Krandall. That forces him to work as a Santa in Norm Dobson’s toy store, with weird would be-actor Sebastian. Drake reassesses his values and priorities in life.

“Disclaimer: Iu0026#39;m a Kevin Sorbo fan. Heu0026#39;s a good actor. If you compare him to most of the u0026quot;genericu0026quot; actors in Hallmark movies, heu0026#39;s a clear standout. When he comes on the screen heu0026#39;s certainly seems every inch a movie star. I say that because Iu0026#39;ve watched (or should I say fast-forwarded through) many HM movies where it really wasnu0026#39;t clear who was (supposed to be) the u0026quot;star.u0026quot; This guy has matinée idol good looks (even now, well into his 50u0026#39;s) and he really is a cut above the usual male lead. Thereu0026#39;s a scene in the movie where heu0026#39;s recounting something upsetting, and he does it just the right blend of privacy, melancholy, and embarrassment that is appropriate when telling something private. In general, this is a great little feel-good holiday movie. Two thumbs up !!!”
