Christmas is a time of great expectations, especially through the eyes of a child. For nine-year-old Ralphie Parker, that great expectation is a genuine Red Ryder 200 Shot Carbine Action Air Rifle. No self-respecting cowboy would be without one. Unfortunately, his mother, teacher and even the Santa Claus toiling away at Goldblatt's Department Store have the same reaction to his Christmas wish, "You'll shoot your eye out!" But for Ralphie, the longing for that special BB gun symbolizes maturity, responsibility, adventure and manhood. Based on the touching film that has become a modern day holiday tradition, A Christmas Story returns to delight the whole family and fill you with the spirit of the season.

        Although I think those that love the film might not enjoy this version nearly as much, the cast and overall production is nice family entertainment I think we all can relate to. Nothing out of this... Expand
