Santa From Elf Is Kinda The Worst For Sending Buddy To NYC With No Preparation

Elf is the quintessential Christmas comfort movie. It's hilariously iconic and entirely perfect; it's one that I am happy to watch over and over and over. Will Ferrell brings so much joy in his portrayal of Buddy the Elf, the movie's endearingly clueless protagonist. You can't help but root for Buddy as he reconnects with his Dad (James Caan), falls in love with Jovie (Zooey Deschanel), and spreads Christmas cheer throughout New York City.
