Santa has fallen on hard times and now goes by his government name Chris Cringle (Mel Gibson). He isn't what he used to be at the height of his career. His toy workshop can't make ends meet, his elves are out of work because apparently, there are very few good kids in the world to give to so he's running out of business.

For the hit man, this is the perfect revenge mission given that the "Fatman" as they refer to him in the movie, never brought him any gifts as a child. From the trailer, you see a vindictive guy on the road out to hunt a worn out alcoholic Santa now reluctantly working for the government.

There's a lot of swearing, dark humor and violence in this movie. This is not your typical feel-good Christmas film. It won't inspire you to sing 'Santa Claus is coming to Town' and you shouldn't take the kids to watch it. But some critics on Rotten Tomatoes swear it's funny.
