Patrick Swayze stars as Wayne Saunders, a father of three
who recently moved from Los Angeles to Edmonton with his family. But when they
arrive on Christmas Eve with his wife stuck at the airport back in LA, he
realises it’s down to him to organise Christmas.
With no presents or food, the family take off to the mall
where the children are left to their own devices, but while enjoying a skate on
the indoor ice rink, the youngest two come across a bag of counterfeit money
and waste no time in spending it.
But as they enjoy their impromptu spending spree buying
everything they set their eyes on, the owners of the money are desperate to get
it back and will stop at nothing to ensure they do, resulting in a chase and
battle of wits throughout the mall.
The title of this movie was misleading as nothing about it
took part in a wonderland – it was a shopping mall which to some people maybe a
wonderland, but not for me.
This movie was slightly far-fetched and silly with
Tim Curry struggling to keep to his Scottish accent, but it provided light
entertainment.
