    The main antagonist in this film is the Santa Claus. The strength that makes Ricky Smiley such a compelling character for this position is that he sneaks in while they are asleep and sneaks out when they wake up. Craig fits the protagonist position because he was the main character involved in conflict with Santa Claus. He was also the leader in the decision making to come up with a plan to get their rent money back. I would recommend this one for any day of the week.
