Have you ever think how to make a terrible movie? This one make everything wrong.Has terrible directing, terrible acting, bad cinematography, bad soundtrack (something rare to find) and the worst part is that practically Has No Script.Not only has horrible moral, terrible ending, too snooty craracter (Kirk), this movie is BORING AS HECK.

This is more like a documentary type of movie. Educational to teach the history and the symbolism of the origins of Christmas. Very informative movie. A little cheesy at times but very worth it to learn what Christmas is truly all about

It would have been better to have shown this movie on television on a religious network. But even then, the ratings would have been terrible. Only the most die-hard fundamentalist trying to squeeze a Christian meaning out of every Christmas symbol would have liked this movie. The only Xmas show I've seen that's worse than this is the Star Wars Holiday Special (on YouTube), which has never been re-broadcast since 1978 or released on home video.Christian, Kirk's brother-in-law, is complaining about how so many of the symbols of Christmas, most notably Christmas trees, are not biblical in origin. Kirk, in his revisionism, goes way out on a limb to deny the pagan origins of the symbols and traditions of Christmas. He tells Christian that Christmas trees were God's idea, since he made the trees. He also says that each tree represents a Christian cross. Christian then starts complaining about Santa Claus. He sees Santa as replacing Jesus and notices that "Santa" and "Satan" have the same letters -- what a stretch. But Kirk tells him that the original Santa Claus was actually Saint Nicholas -- who in actuality was one of several sources for the character. Kirk ends his lecture be saying that the presents under the tree represent the buildings of New Jerusalem. The last 15-20 minutes are partying, eating, and bloopers.A conspiracy theorist, meanwhile, is complaining about the removal of public manger scenes, and says they're be removed to Area 52, which he says is similar to Area 51.Kirk's brother-in-law's real name, by the way, is John Ridenour. His name Christian in the movie is probably meant to represent Christians disappointed about the non-religious symbols of Christmas. Christian at one point says, "It's like a car-jacking of our religion!" This is probably a hint that Kirk, along with some Christians, doesn't like the loss of Christian dominance over the holiday season.Kirk's response to the failure of his movie was to blame it on a massive atheist conspiracy. Some people just don't like criticism. When they can't debate their opponents, they demonize them.If you want a good show about Christmas, I highly recommend History Channel's "Christmas Unwrapped: The History of Christmas." It provides an excellent history of the symbols and traditions of the holiday, and shows the different views of it. "Saving Christmas" is at the opposite end of the spectrum.

Kirk Cameron claims to be a Christian but he must of flunked Sunday School because he gets many facts wrong in this stupid inept film. I know Kirk did not write this film but the Christian Bigot should of pointed all the facts that were wrongfully presented in the screenplay. Then again I am assuming that Kirk Cameron has a brain. He doesn't. He is just a middle-aged former teen heartthrob who can not act or even be a decent human. In this film Kirk's sister's annual Christmas party is about to be ruined by Christian, his brother-in-law, and Kirk realizes he has to show Christian how important Christ is to the holiday season.Kirk go away.
