In the annals of movie profanity, this movie would rate an Oscar, but it's actually pretty sweet at heart, although never sentimental. And if you don't believe me, you know what you can do.

Much like School Of Rock, Bad Santa salvages a tired, paint-by-numbers formula by resisting it every step of the way, stubbornly refusing to stop its juvenile fun until the last possible moment.

If Bad Santa does well at the box office, Zwigoff will get credit for being a savvy player. That Bad Santa is as vile and stupid as Ghost World was insightful and touching is something Hollywood has no interest in measuring.

The movie's one joke -- which will endure for the ages -- is the defamation of the Christmas spirit by Billy Bob Thornton, who stars as a drunken, chain-smoking, dirty-minded, incontinent, foul-mouthed and larcenous department-store Santa.

Once the rude shock of a profane Claus wears off, there's not really much to do except await the next outrageous remark.

Thornton never backs down from anything the writers throw at him. Bad Santa takes everything beyond tasteful limits.

I wanted to believe in Bad Santa. At least half of the time I did.

Even when the film threatens to turn feel-good, it thankfully resists the urge.

An antidote to forced holiday cheer, this scabrously funny misanthropic comedy is not for the whole family.

Best of all, it plugs into -- and electrifies -- the mostly unacknowledged grimness that lies just beneath our holiday cheer.
