Customer Reviews of Ernest Saves Christmas
ERNIE IS A GEM! This is by far my favorite Ernest movie, Why is this not available on DVD?
Everything about this movie is right. It has such a warm and genuine tone throughout. It is a wonderful happy story about a hero who almost makes me believe in Santa Claus again!
I have always considered this film an "unsung" family classic..it's every bit as good as other modern Christmas films such as "The Santa Clause". This is so wholesome and honest in its presentation...it just feels real! I sense that Mr. Varney really loved making this film..it is an absolute joy and unrelentingly funny! God Bless you Ernest!!
If you like Jim Varney, you'll enjoy this movie!
I've enjoyed this movie since the year it came out. I had recorded the TV version years ago, but it is very worn. I logged on today to find and purchase a copy of Ernest Saves Christmas. It is so disappointing that copies are not available now. Is there any way to get copies again?
This is a movie that even my teenager will sit down and laugh at, even with Mom and Dad still in the room. Ha! If YOU haven't seen it, you've missed a delightful Christmas story with warmth, compassion, and lots of funny moments. Oh, and it's clean! You can let your elementary age kids see it without hesitation on your part.
Christmas is coming! Know what I mean?
1988's "Ernest Saves Christmas" is a loveable children's movie that's packed with goofy gags and silly holiday humor. Of course, most of the magic is brought out by America's favorite country bumpkin, Ernest P. Worrell (Jim Varney).
After 151 years on the job, Santa Claus (Douglas Seale) moves to Orlando, Florida to retire. To keep the Christmas spirit alive, he attempts to hire a former T.V. show host named Joe Curruthers (Oliver Clark) as his replacement. Joe is chosen because of his unending devotion to making kids happy. However, Joe's money-hungry agent, Marty Brock, (Robert Lesser) offers him a chance of a lifetime; a starring role in a gruesome horror movie called "Christmas Slay." Later on, after believing that Santa isn't who he claims to be, Marty has the old man arrested and taken to prison! Even worse, Santa accidentally left his bag of toys behind! Meanwhile, Ernest is an airport taxi driver who tries to celebrate Christmas with his flabbergasted neighbor Vern...and with disastrous results! When he discovers Kris Kringle's magical bag of toys, Ernest realizes that he's the real thing! In a race against time, Ernest and a runaway teen named Harmony Star (Noelle Parker) have to bail Santa out of jail and help him fetch Joe before 7:00 pm on December 24th. Otherwise, the magic of Christmas will disappear forever! Along the way, Ernest flips pancakes onto the ceiling, crashes a chandelier on a dining room table, adapts a few cartoonish disguises (including that of the cranky Auntie Nelda), and rockets to the moon on a sleigh with 8 tiny reindeer! To make a long story short, "Ernest Saves Christmas" is fun for the whole family.
