Bad Santa (2003) 6/10

Starring : Billy Bob Thornton, Tony Cox, Brett Kelly, Lauren Graham, Lauren Tom, Bernie Mac, John Ritter
Director : Terry Zwigoff
Running Time : 100 mins

Willie (Thornton) is an alcoholic who goes through life making money as a shopping mall Santa, while he is secretly using the cover to rob the shops with his assistant Marcus (Cox)when they close, but when he meets a little boy called Thurman (Kelly) and a woman with a Santa fetish named Sue (Graham), he slowly begins to think that maybe he should try to turn his life around.

This was an okay movie if you really like watching gross out comedies, but some of the jokes went a little too far. It was uncomfortable to watch Thornton wetting himself throughout the movie, but I did think that Kelly did a good job as the curious kid, and Graham is very much back to her roots as Sue.
