This is an unremarkable Christmas film which is hard to dislike purely because of how gentile and harmless the character of Ernest really is. The film works for the younger audience who are looking for Christmas entertainment because Ernest gets involved in enough comedic japes that are just plain silly. That silliness set in a Christmas theme guarantee a level of engagement, so whilst the film does not entirely fit the formula, Ernest could be considered a kid and Christmas the magic.
It's worth a watch at Christmas, just don't expect too much.
Adult score: 2/5
