The Christmas Path
You Will Believe.
Vincent Spano (Baby, It's You) stars with Dee Wallace Stone (E.T.) in this family holiday fantasy concerning a Christmas angel cast out by Santa, who gets a chance to redeem himself by restoring a young boy's faith. Widowed Jenny Banks (Stone) is struggling so hard to make ends meet that she can't afford to buy her daughter Dora (Madylin Sweeten) a pair of angel wings for her school play, so they write to Santa for help. Dora's brother Cal (Shia LaBeouf) dismisses the idea, but when his lack of faith creates a gap in the path by which Santa reaches us, Mrs. Claus (Marcia Wallace) suggests sending Balthazar (Spano) down to repair it. His powers taken away to make sure he uses only pure honesty. Balthazar has less than a week to change Cal's attitude in this warm, wise Yuletide tale, with a climax reminiscent of the classic Miracle On 34th Street.

A bit disturbing actually - JayA
Certainly cheap and "B" quality, but it was more than a little creepy too, where broken characters hang out with a creepy stranger. Some darker images in it for kids. I don't think I'd be showing my kids this, and I doubt I'd be showing anyone other than kids as well. Depressing, dull and not particularly enjoyable.The Christmas Path - McAllister
This movie was okay for light holiday entertainment that the whole family could enjoy. It was definitely "B" movie quality. Most of the time the actors looked like they were directly reading from que cards. No suprises in the story line. Costumes were something to be desired.
