The North Pole has grown into a pretty large city that runs on the power of Christmas. But Christmas spirit is at an all time low, especially since the Mayor has cancelled the tree lighting program at the town park. A young man, Kevin (Max Charles) has the desire to make a difference and to save the tree lighting, and a young elf from the north pole, Clementine (Bailee Madison) is willing to help. But her single mom, reporter Chelsea (Tiffani Thiessen) doesn’t believe him and is looking for a scoop, and his teacher Ryan (Josh Hopkins) is looking after Ryan and allows him to choose saving the North Pole as his school project.

This is a new 2014 Christmas film from Hallmark. It’s a very similar story to all the other “The world is losing their Christmas spirit” films. But this one is very well done. The casting is really good, and we have some great performers here. Furthermore the sets and scenery are spectacular. Especially the North Pole scenes. This is not a particularly new concept, there aren’t many of those left, but it’s certainly one of the nicest Christmas premiers I have seen. I really enjoyed the movie very much, and I think Bailee Madison did a super job playing the young elf. She’s been in several Christmas movies from the last few years, and many other blockbuster films, but I enjoyed her the most as Young Snow White in the

“Once Upon a Time” shows. She has a lot happening and is an excellent actress who can really act. Since this is new this year, you haven’t seen this one yet, but it’s also already available on DVD, so this is one you ought not to miss!
