据说《圣诞传说》的故事来自圣诞老人给编剧的一通电话，随后影片的编剧去到一个神秘的地方，那是传说中真正的圣诞老人居住的地方，这个神秘地点在？

真是一部感人的电影。据说故事来自编剧好多年前接到的一个神秘电话，神秘人讲述了一生传奇般的经历，编剧坚信这是他跟圣诞老人的对话，必须将这经历虔诚的告知所有人。故事体现了尼古拉斯老人一生高尚的人格。剧中没有一个坏人，其悲催的童年经历让人落泪，而后又含泪和喜悦看着圣诞老人的雪橇仿佛真的在白亮夜空中穿行，没有痛苦，没有尽头，只有双手祈祷，看到了幸福的曙光。心中满是不平的伤痕也不在意了，这个世界并不欠我什么，很多帮过我的人也没有要求我的回赠，比起好多缺衣少食，孤苦无依的人，我算很幸福了

This film is one mixed bag. Technically it couldn't be any better. The cinematography by Mika Orasmaa is masterful and the soundtrack by Leri Leskinen does not fall short of the visuals. The Lappish scenery is magnificent and the movie props and costumes create a remarkably romantic and fairy tale-like atmosphere without losing a sense of reality. I was captivated by the execution of the film.
That being said, the acting is highly inconsistent - at best great (Kari Väänänen) and at worst performed by a former Finnish idols runner-up, Antti Tuisku (you can't make that up). This may or may not be a problem with the dubbed English version, but it sure as hell stands out like a sore thumb in the Finnish-spoken original here and there. The dialogue, it must be said, at times makes George Lucas seem like a pretty decent screenwriter.
As for the story, it may not be for everyone. There are scenes that border the questionable for a children's' movie about Santa, although certainly none of them spoil the film (or Christmas for that matter). It's not a sugar-coated Disney flick, but it's also neither depressing nor without humor or joy. Bottom line, all's well that ends well.
