Elf — Movie Review

E lf movie was released on November 3rd 2003 . Elf movie is a Christmas comedy featuring will Ferrell and many other awesome actors . Elf is about a man named buddy who is raised in the north pole and sent to new York to find his real father after finding out he isn ' t an actual elf he is a human being . Elf movie was filmed in new York and in the north pole sort of .

One of my favorite scenes of the movie was when buddy leaves for new York and runs into Mr . Norwhall and Mr . Norwhall says " bye buddy ". That scene is funny because of the voice they use for Mr . Norwhall . They use a lot of funny voices for some of the characters including Mr . snowman the penguin and other animals . They are all very cute and the characters remind me of Christmas movies like

Santa Claus is coming to town .
Another of my favorite scenes is when buddy gets to New York and is amazed by everything . when he goes into the coffee shop and congratulates them for having the best coffee in the entire world by screaming at them is also my favorite scene . The way buddy is so enthusiastic and acts like a child makes me laugh . Also the way he gets so excited and happy is funny like the scene when the manager told him that Santa was coming to the store to see the children and buddy started screaming ( it was hilarious ).
Also another one of my favorite scenes was when buddy spent the night at the store to prepare for Santa and he snuck into the bathroom and sang " baby its cold out side " with Janey played by zooey Deschanel . I love Zooey Deschanel and I think her
singing is on point . Will Ferrell is also great at singing but when they sing together its great . Also another favorite scene of mine when he helped his brother throw the snowballs at the brothers bullies . I love snow so it was funny how buddy threw the snowballs and how fast they were .
This is a must watch for Christmas . Its hilarious and is great to watch with children or by yourself if you don ’ t have children . Even if its not Christmas you should watch this its great I love watching this movie in the summer cause it gets me excited for Christmas :). Will Ferrell is hilarious in this and I think its one of his best movies .
