•lily•Dec 4, 2022Pre-sledgehammer the movie was a struggle. Post-sledgehammer the movie was brutally fun. Consensus: Always add more sledgehammers.

This is a good 3/5. The movie is dumb fun but it’s an extremely good time.

oliviathebiDec 1, 2022So, this is the best movie I’ve ever seen. It’s Citizen Candy Cane. It’s 200 proof Christmas Spirits. It sleighs all the competition. High octane, jolly old Saint Ridiculous. I loved it.

I’m a simple man, I see Home Alone tribute scenes and I’m in.

Stutter with the Fedora lovedViolent NightViolent Night was a funny, bloody, and strangely heartfelt, addition to the holiday season and something I’ll definitely return to every Christmas season.

Definitely was a great movie and the name of the title says it all. Love the Christmas humor in it and David Harbour was fantastic! 💯 🎅🏼
Dogun dislikedViolent NightDavid as Santa is 10/10, but the movie as a whole doesn’t resonate with me. It’s a movie for adults, but the story and dialogue felt like it was for kids. I’m sorry, I can’t put this as a movie I particularly enjoy. Bored me in the theatre, just waiting for it to end.
Alleakthle likedViolent NightHopper was pretty freaking cool. I had a good time in the theater. I like Johnathan as well. Funny, gory, and delightful

It's just fun. If you like fun, go. Enjoy. If you don't, you suck. Stay home.
LMLuis MaggioExactly what I expected and more. David Harbour was excellent as Santa.
KSKendra SeanorThis is a Santa movie I never knew I wanted! I loved the heck out of this movie! It’s a mix of Home Alone and Nobody and it’s perfect! I do recommend leaving the kids home unless they can handle it

I didn't even see it I missed the movie
ASAlexander SchirajThis movie will not be for all audiences, especially young ones and family expecting a Xmas story
LWLera WatkinsGreat movie. Great cast. Leguizamo put off Montague vs Capulet angst. Sooo good. And who doesn't love Hopper?!? This is now my favorite Christmas movie. Soooo much fun.
- SMShawn McCurdy
I loved this movie. It was funny, action packed and a fun twist on the subject of Santa Claus. David Harbour was cast perfectly for this role. This will be a Christmas movie for all time to me at least. Loved it!!
ACAndrew ChanIt’s like if the kid in home alone was John Wick and Santa combined. Not a thinking person’s movie, come for the dumb humor and violence. Entertaining watch overall.
MGMarilyn Gonzalez MaldonadoMissing something to make this movie great. It’s just good. I’d say a 6 out of 10.

Violent Night isn’t going to go down as a classic (although it may have cult classic potential) but, despite all the gore and violence and other R-rated material, it’s arguably less offensive than the kind of bilge proliferated by Netflix and Lifetime/Hallmark/etc. in the name of Holiday Cheer. There are certainly worse ways to spend a chilly December evening.

Now comes the gruesomely bloody, cheerfully tasteless, fantastically naughty and entertaining Christmas thriller Violent Night, which is basically “Die Hard” with candy canes in a mansion.
