  • Reviewed in the United States on December 3, 2002
    The 1983 film, "A Christmas Story", quickly became a holiday classic as viewers fell in love with its witty prose as narrated by Jean Shepherd (1921-1999), who wrote the novel upon which the film is based: "In God We Trust: All Others Pay Cash".
    The film begins weeks before Christmas in the city of Terre Haute, Indiana circa 1934. A young Ralph 'Ralphie' Parker (Peter Billingsley) stares through the glass of a storefront window at the local department store to see what he wants most for Christmas, a Red Rider Be-Be Gun, and ponders the quandary of how to convince his parents to buy him one. He leaves various clues in the house for his parents to find about how wonderful and necessary the be-be gun is, but when his mother (Melinda Dillon, who received Oscas nominations for her roles in the 1977 film "Close Encounters of the Third Kind" and the 1981 film "Absence of Malice") asks him what he wants for Christmas during breakfast one morning, Ralphie excitedly blurts out, "I want an official, Red Ryder, Carbine-action, 200-Shot, Range Model, Air Rifle". His mother responds, "No, that's too dangerous. You'll shoot your eye out." Ralphie is crushed at hearing the common adult "prejudice" against the be-be gun, but decides upon finding another tactical means of persuasion.
    At school, Ralphie's teacher, Miss Shields, (Tedde Moore) assigns his class to write a Christmas theme. Most of the students are not happy with the assignment, but Ralphie sees this as another golden opportunity to bolster the superiority of the Red Rider be-be gun as the ideal Christmas gift. He writes what he believes will be regarded a masterpiece, but when Miss Shields returns his theme, Ralphie is shocked to see a grade of "C+". To add insult to injury, Miss Shields writes in red ink, "You'll shoot your eye out!" For Ralphie, the universe is coming apart at the seams and it leads to one of the film's many subplots: a fight with the bully Scut Farcus (Zach Ward). Throughout the first half of the film, Ralphie, his younger brother Randy (Ian Petrella) and his two friends Flick (Scott Schwartz) and Schwartz (R.D. Robb) are terrorized by Scut Farcus and his toady Grover Dill (Yano Anaya). Upon receiving a C+ for his prized theme, Ralphie's rage empowers him to mercilessly beat upon the unexpecting Scut Farcus and to express his Red Rider frustration in a torrent of obscenities (don't worry, they're unintelligible). Fearing a severe punishment from his father (Darren McGavin, well-known for his characterization of Carl Kolchak in the 1972 TV-series "The Night Stalker"), Ralphie & Randy tearfully wait for their father to return home from work; but their mother plays down the fight in a conversation with him to Ralphie's relief.
    Ralphie's father is a fascinating character in the film with several great subplots: his unintelligible expressions of frustration with the neighbor's uncontrolled pack of dogs and struggles with their failing furnace, and his winning of a "major prize". Ralphie's mother isn't too thrilled with her husband's "major prize" since it is a tall plastic lamp in the shape of a woman's leg wearing a black-lace stocking that he proudly displays in front of their livingroom window; but a mysterious and unexplained accident changes the sitation.
    Other subplots in the film include Ralphie's "Little Orphan Annie Secret Society Decoder Ring", Ralphie assiting his father change a flat tire with unforeseen consequences, Schwartz challenging Flick to stick his tongue to a frozen flagpole to see whether it will get stuck, the discovery of Chinese turkey and the frequent overheating of inadequate electrical fuses and outlets in the Parker's home.
    Jean Shepherd's narration throughout the film binds all of the many subplots into a coherent whole that continues to delight viewers of all ages to its timeless humor and realism. Though the film itself gets 5 stars, DVD quality is far less than it what it could have been, as other reveiwers have remarked. The DVD is full-screen instead of widescreen and there is little bonus material offered. I highly recommend to Warner Studios that this film be digitally remastered in widescreen format and include additional bonus material, such as a biography of Jean Shepherd.
    Though the DVD quality is low for "A Christmas Story", the film itself is well worth the purchase of the full-screen DVD. This is a film that can be enjoyed at any time of the year, but especially during the holidays. Watch and see whether Ralphie will ever get his beloved, official, Red Ryder, Carbine-action, 200-Shot, Range Model, Air Rifle!

    Now I have to stick up for Jamie a bit. She was honest that she did not like the movie but her family did, and she said you love it or hate it. I love it.
    My main problem is these parents writing reviews because it has "violence and profanity". First of all, they were looking for offensive material in this movie; no cussing of any kind was in this movie except for the one time Ralphie says the "F" word, which is extended by him into the word fudge in front of his father. You actually cannot even hear the complete word. The idea is you know what he said and his mother (which I'm sure some of the mothers with their reviews felt was also wrong) promptly washes out his mouth with soap. Also, with the mother who felt that this is a bad movie with the gun violence these days, the movie was made in 1983 and guns don't kill people, people kill people. You can smother someone with a pillow and it doesn't mean it's the pillow's fault.
    To everyone this is a very cute movie that will make a good portion of you laugh and smile. Obviously from the other comments the DVD quality is poor but the VHS is just fine. Not everyone will like this movie, but I hope you do not look at it to raise your children. That is your job alone to teach your children cussing is bad, guns are not toys, and fighting is wrong, but sometimes you don't have a choice. That is what this movie was stating. Ralphie got in a fight because he really had no other choice so he fought to win. His father yells in the movie and you are to take it as cussing, but you can never understand what he says. The Santa and the elves seem mean because that is how Ralphie pictures them, as big, mean, scary people. You have to admit they tend to scare children in real life. Some parents just need to grow up and realize it's not everyone else's job to raise their children.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Christmas Story.
    Reviewed in Canada on December 8, 2024
    This is an excellent Christmas Story set in 1940's in Indiana, it tells the story of a family during Christmas. Ralphie desperately wants a Daisy Red Ryder BB gun for Christmas though everyone tells him that he will shoot his eye out. Many scenes set in school, where there are 2 bullies who antagonize the boys along with their friend. Darren McGavin plays the father who battles the furnace daily, his younger brother doesn't like to eat and his mother encourages him to eat his dinner like a pig. McGavin much to the chagrin of his wife played by Melinda Dillon doesn't like it when he wins a lamp in the shape of a leg with stocking hose which McGavin puts in the front window, it later is destroyed in an accident on purpose by his wife. Fantasy scenes where Peter Billingsley plays a cowboy and uses the rifle to get rid of bandits. Great scene where the family goes to a store to visit a grumpy Santa and elves who see it is 9 o clock and closing scene, asked what he wants for Christmas he agrees to a football but later relents and says he wants a BB rifle, and Santa says you'll shoot your eyes out. He does get the rifle and promptly outside has an accident shooting the rifle and damages his eye, he steps on his glasses and tells his mother that an icicle damaged his glasses. His aunt gives him a bunny suit and his parents tell him to change into it. Mother makes a delicious turkey which is taken by bloodhounds from next door, the family have to resort to Christmas dinner in a Chinese restaurant serenaded by waiters who can't pronounce lls. Along with Chevy Chase Christmas Vacation and Jimmy Stewart's sad Christmas movie where he contemplates jumping from a bridge this film is a favorite to see every Christmas. Part of the movie was filmed in Toronto. Commentary by Billingsley, Dillon and Bob Clark and also trailer is included. Very funny movie, great family fun.
