There’s another Christmas modern movie coming out this season and it’s going for action and CGI spectacle above all else. It’s Red One, in which the Rock and Chris Evans team up and fight CGI monsters in an effort to save J.K. Simmons as Santa Claus.

I like to give all movie’s the benefit of the doubt (unless they’re Sony Spider-Man villain movies), so maybe this could be good. I loved David Habour’s Violent Night a couple of years ago. I even liked Mel Gibson’s Fatman. So maybe I’ll like Red One. It definitely looks pretty wild. I’ve also heard all sorts of behind the scene antics from the Rock, like refusing to show up and work a full day. The cost also ballooned to like $250 million. I dunno.

Anyway, that’s the trailer, this is Monday, and Red One comes to theaters on Nov. 15.
