It's a christmas movie, not meant to be analyzed and thought too much about. Just enjoy it
this is what I hear any time I don't like a movie that's goofy. I thought ELF was retarded, and not next to The Thin Red Line, just in general.

It's a decent movie; one that the whole family can watch and everyone will get a few laughs out of.
this is why I love it and why i started the other thread earlier this week
you can't go into it expecting vulgar will ferrel with anchorman and step brothers jokes
but its a movie thats fun for all ages, and if you can't laugh at a lot of the things buddy says/does, then i'm sorry that your sense of humor sucks so bad

It was the SUCK. I had seen bitsnand pieces before of this and thought it may be mildly amusing but I have to say this movie is outright abysmal.
There's something about WF movies that you just have give them time. Some aren't that great, like Blades of Glory, but some just get better each time you watch. Elf is one of the ones that get better.
Not to mention I don't really know what you're expecting for a WF Christmas movie where he dresses in spandex.

Until last night, I had not actually seen the very beginning of Elf. The scenes with him at the orphanage. I guess I never really thought too much about how he got to the North Pole.

Ryno, I have to disagree...the kids like it a lot. I think the story is great and it has become a holiday tradition for us to watch it together (along with the Grinch and some older cartoon Christmas movies)

People who don't like Elf take themselves too seriously. That's the ticket.

I think it's good, not great
except when he does a flying leap into the christmas tree, I lose it every time

with all due respect, you are an idiot. There is a reason is plays non stop during holidays ... i am way over Will Ferrell, but this is a GREAT film. Holiday or otherwise.

i agree with Chicken.
i'll watch it with the kids and chuckle, but, like The Grinch (with J. Carry), i thought it was aweful when it first came out.
won't go out the way to watch it.

-"Watch out, the yellow ones don't stop" 
I think it's a better xmas movie than most....however it's way overplayed on USA during the holidays yet I seem to watch it every time

You people have no soul. It isn't genius but it puts me in the holiday spirit and is on my Christmas watch list.
I love the end of it but that's the only part I even like. Don't enjoy the WF/JC interaction at all.
Maybe if I had kids I would enjoy it more. I am not a big WF fan to begin with so I never expected to like it.

Great scene with Dinklage, the snowball fight is epic, North Pole opening is funny, Newhart is classic, on and on ...
Posted on 12/22/11 at 5:25 pm to Tiger Ryno

Posted on 12/22/11 at 5:49 pm to Tiger Ryno
You are the SUCK, sir.

Great scene with Dinklage
That's my favorite part. He's an angry elf.
