Comment from guy on IMDB I just HAD to share:

"I'm a 32 year old guy and I simply cannot watch this movie. Why? Because it's too emotional. I cry so many times before the end credits roll. Maybe it's because I can relate so well to what Charlie is going through. When I was 10, my uncle died in a gardening accident on Easter Sunday, and I thought I had lost him forever.

When I was a kid, nothing got me and my friends more hyped up in anticipation than snow. Yep – the glorious white stuff. To us, there were few other activities as fun as playing in the snow.

As a touring musician clinging to dreams of stardom, aging rocker Jack Frost (Michael Keaton) never had much time for his wife, Gabby (Kelly Preston), and young son, Charlie (Joseph Cross). A year after Jack's tragic death in a car accident on Christmas Day, Charlie plays a mournful tune on his father's harmonica. Much to his surprise, the elder Frost is magically brought to life as a snowman on the family lawn. Given a second chance, Charlie and Jack struggle to make up for lost time.
