You'd better watch out - Santa Claus Willie T. Soke is coming to town, and he doesn't care if you've been naughty or nice. Wille's favorite holiday tradition is to fill his sacks with loot lifted from shopping malls across the country. But this year his plot gets derailed by a wisecracking store detective, a sexy bartender, and a kid who's convinced Willie is the real Santa Claus.

Top Critics Reviews

fresh:
An antidote to forced holiday cheer, this scabrously funny misanthropic comedy is not for the whole family.

fresh:
Once the rude shock of a profane Claus wears off, there's not really much to do except await the next outrageous remark.

Even when the film threatens to turn feel-good, it thankfully resists the urge.

fresh:
Best of all, it plugs into -- and electrifies -- the mostly unacknowledged grimness that lies just beneath our holiday cheer.

fresh:
Much like School Of Rock, Bad Santa salvages a tired, paint-by-numbers formula by resisting it every step of the way, stubbornly refusing to stop its juvenile fun until the last possible moment.
