Kind of boring for children

I was just listening to it and thought the same thing. I turned it on when Kris struck the guy on the street and was taken to the sanitarium and Dylan M was talking to him. I thought this is dull, hardly for kids.

then Perkins came in and was chewing out the store execs. I thought, is this aimed at kids?

I don't think the original was necessarily aimed at kids, but it was alot peppier than this thing is amounting to be.

It's been a holiday favorite of mine since it came out in '94 (when I was 10). So I guess it's different tastes for different people.

You found it boring, really? I used to watch this film every Christmas as a child and I was always completely captivated by it. I still love it to this day and I'm now 24.

I saw this in the theatre when I was 8 and was bored to death and I was a kid that could easily sit through any movie happily...I still don't like watching this movie...I have no problem with the original but that one at least has a nostalgia feel to it...

This is extremely boring for children!
I, as well, don't understand what the target of this film was supposed to be.
Kids will find most of it slow-paced and dull (especially the legal scenes), while adults will not be interested in the story. It is also not enough lively to be watched by the whole family - every member will get bored to tears.
So, it's a failure as both a family movie and a kids movie.

I think it is meant more for teens & adults. My teenagers enjoy the movie as much as I do. My youngest is 14.

I had the same problem as a kid; this film is very boring, save for a few scenes.
