Reviews
ThedevilChoose When a movie has you begging for it to end not even half way through it's pure crap. We've all seen this movie and this characters millions of times, nothing new in it. Don't waste your time.
StyleSk8r At first rather annoying in its heavy emphasis on reenactments, this movie ultimately proves fascinating, simply because the complicated, highly dramatic tale it tells still almost defies belief.
BelSports This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.
Sienna-Rose Mclaughlin The movie really just wants to entertain people.
gavin6942 In this sequel to 'Rare Exports Inc' we are shown the horrendous results of abusing Father Christmas.As a sequel to the first short film we get a second short film, again presented in the informational "nature video" style. This time we see the life of Father Christmas after he is shipped out, and when those delivering him do not follow the simple instructions. This is rather hilarious, and far more horror-themed than the first installment.It does raise some questions, though. As the film seems to suggest this is a "trained" Father Christmas, how can they be sent out if these infractions make them go berserk? Certainly in malls they may avoid smoking and drinking, possibly even cursing... but loud noise? These guys would not last one day.
WakenPayne Apparently With All The New Father Christmases Around People Need To Be Taught How To Behave Around One, This Is Fantastic At Being One Of The Dumbest Movies Anyone Is Likely To See, Its Nice To See A Country Outside The United States & Britan That Makes Dumb Movies.The Funniest Rule Is "Don't Drink Or Curse", I Had To Pause The Film To Actually Laugh Because I Had A Fear That I Wouldn't See The Rest Especially The Narrator Saying " If You Do This In Front Of A Father Christmas Death Is Certain." (I Suppose I Will Never See Santa The Same Way Again.) This Is Actually My Favourite Short Film This Is Along Side 9, Punisher First Round, Rare Exports 1, Human(Off Halo Legends), Detective Story (Off Animatrix) & Max Payne: Hero (To Name What I Call "The Best").Overall I Highly Recommend This."You Better Not Shout, You Better Not Cry, You Better Not Pound I'm Telling You Why, Santa Claus Is Coming To Town."
Theo Robertson This is the sequel to Jalmari Helander's RARE EXPORTS INC . Since the original's success centres around a shock revelation as to who the hunters are stalking in the cold wastes of Lapland it's obvious that all the cards have been played so instead of trying out another plot twist the makers have followed this up with biting satire . The short is made in a similar way to a training film as to how to transport a captive Father Christmas safely Even if you're not taken too much to the script you should be impressed by the technical aspects of THE OFFICIAL RARE EXPORTS INC SAFETY INSTRCUTIONS . The cinematography by Jean Noel Mustonen is very noticeable in a good way and I've rarely seen a well shot short film . The music is uncredited by Iwas instantly reminded of Howard Shore's superb score for LORD OF THE RINGS I've been clicking on the names of many of the people responsible in the production of this short and I'm disappointed Hollywood mainstream producers haven't been knocking on their door because this is certainly a very well made short film from all concerned
Woodyanders This is a rare example of a sequel that's equal in quality to the original film it's a follow-up to. The Father Christmas from the first movie is abused by several dock workers and gets loose so he can embark on a murderous spree. It's up to three expert hunters to track Father Christmas down and kill him. Director/co-writer Jalmari Helander once again adroitly mines a fresh, inventive, and wickedly funny line in deliciously dark and twisted pitch-black humor (the safety tips on not making any loud noises, smoking, or drinking around a Father Christmas are genuinely hilarious in an admittedly twisted sort of way). Otso Tarkela gives a convincingly feral performance as the bloodthirsty and dangerous Father Christmas. Tommi Korpela, Jorma Tommila, and Tazu Ovaska are likewise credible as the ace hunters forced to take Father Christmas out like a wild rabid beast. Jonathan Hutchings' wonderfully deep and solemn gravel-voiced narration further enhances the deadpan comic tone. Moreover, there's also a nice smattering of grisly gore and an extremely eerie conclusion set in a remote woodland graveyard for deceased Father Christmases. Jean Noel Mastonen's polished cinematography gives the picture an exquisitely glossy and wintry look. The melodic and majestic orchestral score is also on the money fine and effective. Well worth seeing.
