FREE: Elf DVD (2-disc set)

The listing, Elf DVD (2-disc set) has ended.

Will Ferrell plays Buddy the Elf, who is not really an elf, but an overgrown human child raised by elves. Buddy, who towers over the other residents of the North Pole is lovable but inept; he has been accepted by the elves, and his adoptive father (Bob Newhart) dotes on him, but he still does not quite fit in. And so, following the timeworn adoptee-in-search-of-birth-parent storyline, Buddy sets out for New York, on a mission to find his roots and also to revive the faltering Christmas spirit of the notoriously cynical locals, who include his dad (James Caan) and an adorable department store pseudo-elf (Zooey Deschanel). Directed in relatively mellow, easy-going style by Jon Favreau, "Elf" is a charming, silly family Christmas movie more likely to spread real joy than migraine, indigestion and sugar shock. The movie succeeds because it at once restrains its sticky, gooey good cheer and wildly overdoes it. The restraint comes from the casting of two beloved old sitcom curmudgeons, Ed Asner and Mr. Newhart, as Santa and his chief Elf.

This is a pre-owned DVD 2-disc set with Wide Screen & Full Screen DVD's, both with Special Features.

Both DVD's have some scratches but played fine in my DVD player.
