First of all let me say I loved the first Bad Santa, which is to me probably the best Christmas movie ever, equal with Le Père Noël Est Une Ordure. So I was really looking forward to Bad Santa 2. And I can't say I'm disappointed, on the contrary, I just loved it again. The addition of Kathy Bates to the story was brilliant. Billy Bob Thornton is still the worst Santa ever, but his mother (Kathy Bates) is of the same level. Foul language all over, wich probably reflects in the very low ratings this brilliant movie gets. Humorless people just can't take this kind of stuff when it's about their pretty fancy Christmas spirit movies. Bad Santa is for people that don't take this annual event that serious. Brett Kelly is a bit older now and still the same nerd but it worked better in the first movie, still a delight to watch though. I will have now three Christmas movies to watch next year. Three comedies that will make this period easier to swallow.
