Elf Reviews

As I sit here watching Elf for the 5th time this holiday season, I realized I never reviewed it!  A few days ago I had a friend tell me they never saw Elf, so I figure there may be more out there like her!  Many people feared Elf because they think Will Ferrell is annoying.  While I do like Will Ferrell, I also know people who DON'T like him but DID like this movie!  Elf is a family friendly movie for all ages to bring on the holiday cheer!

Will Ferrell plays Buddy the Elf.  He grew up in the North Pole with the rest of the elves, but when he gets older, the elves realize it is time to tell...

Elf is one of my favorite movies of all time!  I can't get through the holiday season without watching Elf at least once.  Although sometimes I watch it a few more times than that.  Will Ferell is hilarious and I could watch his movies all day long.  Elf has that "dumb funny" attribute.  "Buddy the Elf" is so serious about everything.  It's not like he's trying to be funny. 

"Buddy the Elf"  is a human and has always believed that he was an elf until "Papa Elf" has to sit down and explain to Buddy that he is not an elf.  He then travels to New York from the North Pole and tracks down...

this is one of the best christmas movies of all time. this boy is raised as an elf, decides he's no good at tinkering and goes to new york city. he finds his dad, a huge publisher and tries to become instant father and son, the hilarity starts from the beginning and never ends. Will Farrell is amazing and keeps you laughing the whole time. The cast was great, and I have to see this movie at least 5 times during the holiday season. Not including the times it comes on tv. If you are looking for a great message, this is it.

Elf ( 2003) its a christmas classic

Ferrel is tremendously funny. He is brilliant as the Elf. The direction and all the cast is great

Its a joy to watch with all family

Will Ferrell its one the best comedians in the world.

Elf is the best holiday movie ever. (Yes, it's a Christmas movie, but it dominates the entire season.)

Elf is joke after joke, simultaneously taking Santa's existence seriously, making it perfect for children, yet poking fun at itself, appealing to adult sensibility. Delivering entirely naïve drivel in the face of adult cynicism is Elf's specialty formula for humor.

The casting of the main characters is inspired.

• Only Will Ferrell could pull off Buddy credibly, delivering child-like phrases believably, for instance the scene in which he makes small talk with the little girl Carolyn in the doctor's...

will with his over the top humor is just the thing to cure a bad day                                                                                                                                                                                                                           

What else can I say about Elf except, amazing.  This is a classic Christmas movie.  Will Ferrell nails the part in this movie and that is what makes it so much fun to watch.  This is a movie that we pull out every single Christmas season.  We love sit down with a cup of "the world's greatest coffee" and enjoy the ride.  The best part about this movie is that it is totally appropriate for pretty much all ages.  It is great to have a truly funny movie that is not filled with a bunch of vulgar or inappropriate trash.  One of the other reasons that this is such a great movie is because of the...

   By far one of the funniest movies ever made, classic vintage Will Farrell at his best. Will Farrell doesn't stop making you laugh in this christmas movie, where he convinced me that he might just really be an ELF in real life. Just Kidding. Very believable character Buddy goes on a journey which can only be described as funny, amusing, entertaining, fun for the whole family, easy to bring you holiday cheer, packed with enough laughs to keep you giggling for hours at how Childish Will is able to portray himself as. Awesome movie, that I must watch every time it is aired on television, I own...

I have watched the movie Elf several times. I usually watch it around Christmas and each time it is as funny as the next. The great thing about it is it is appropriate for the family and its a good movie for people of all ages. Will Ferrell is very funny in this movie as he is in most of his movies. Will's character Buddy was an orphan until an elf took him in as his own and raised him as his son. Buddy is raised in the north pole with elves and as he grows he begins to realize he is different. His father then tells him that he is really a human and that he is not is real father which send him...

The perfect holiday movie to enjoy with the whole family.  A delight for adults and fun for children.  Will Ferrel is at his best when he does goofy characters and this movie showcases his comedic talent.  James Caan and Bob Newhart add to the fun with a well-rounded supporting cast.

As Buddy, the elf, Will Ferrel delights and triggers some heartfelt emotions on his quest to find his father.  Abandoned as an infant he's raised on the North Pole with Santa, as an elf.  Too big for the elf world, Buddy finally decides to seek out his own kind and in the end, races to save Christmas.

Elf is a fun,...
