Review: 'Red One' tries to supersize the Christmas movie
Briefly

"Red One" is the first film to depict a superhero-like Santa running his North Pole operation like an army, challenging traditional views of the character.
The film aims to launch a holiday franchise, reflecting a blend of military themes with Christmas spirit, all wrapped in CGI and elaborate world-building.
Despite comedic elements, "Red One" struggles under its CGI gloss, hinting at a potentially better and funnier movie that remains largely untapped.
Dwayne Johnson's character laments the antics of adults with "I love the kids. It's the grown-ups that are killing me," adding humor to a fantastical setting.
