Jingle All the Way'' is a very cool movie I watched when I was 10 years old, and only watching it again so many years later, I recognize the boy who plays Jamie, to be the young Anakin Skywalker in the first movie! Anyway, I don't agree with the low rating of this movie, because it is a classic to watch in Christimas and I remember having much fun with it, even having some bizarre or impossible things happening in the story. (Let's not forget that it is a movie and the main goal is to have fun! And only now, I discover that the actor who played Ted in this movie,Phil Hartman,is dead..)Turbo Man features multiple point of articulation, electronic lights and sounds and 3 action accessories! a b Smith, Neil (December 7, 2000).

Howard must travel all over town and compete with everybody else including a mail man to find Turbo Man, and to make it to parade... So, the kid is *real* p***ed at his Dad for missing his karate class, and keeps bitching that he doesn't spend enough time with him. But as soon as you promise to *BUY* him something, all is well again. Conclusion? Anything can be fixed with money. You're a good parent as long as you have money to *BUY* stuff.

Jingle All The Way follows a workaholic dad by the name of Howard who disappoints his wife and son year after year. After missing another karate practice, Howard promises to not only show up at the parade the next day, but also get his son the TurboMan doll that is based off Jamie's favorite television show, favorite cereal, and favorite hero. The catch is simple: it is impossible to find the doll since it's a massive hit. Not only that, but most shipments are not arriving on Christmas Eve (notice the setting getting a bit dangerous), therefore increasing the supply-and-demand. Howard is still determined to find the doll and not disappoint again. Christmas Eve turns into D-Day on the shores of stores across the nation.

The film was released on VHS on October 28, 1997, [25] and in November 1998 it was released on DVD. [26] It was rereleased on DVD in December 2004, [27] followed by an extended director's cut in October 2007, known as the "Family Fun Edition". It contained several minutes of extra footage, as well as other DVD extras such as a behind the scenes featurette. [28] [29] In December of the following year, the Family Fun Edition was released on Blu-ray Disc. [30] Lawsuit [ edit ]

Howard's (Schwarzenegger) son Jamie (Lloyd) wants nothing but a TurboMan action figure for Christmas, but Howard is such a workaholic that he completely forgets. His wife Liz (Wilson) is also getting tired of his "work is more important than family" attitude. Howard lies to Liz about getting the toy, and now spends his entire Christmas Eve frantically running around in search of comedic inspiration and a TurboMan action figure. a b c Schaefer, Stephen (December 2, 1996).

Directed by Brian Levant (Problem Child 2, Beethoven, The Flintstones) made an enjoyable, wildly crazy Holiday movie about commercialism. Schwarzenegger does his best with his role as the absent father, who tries really hard to get "Turbo Man" for his son for Christmas. Sinbad has some funny moment as Howard's arrival. But it is the late Hartman steals the show as the womanizer neighbour. Although "Jingle All the Way" did so-so business at the box office, the film did went to have an loyal cult following over the years. Everything about this movie is great. It has a great cast (With a wonderfully sleazy Phil Hartman). A great script with loads of laughter. a b c "Jury: Fox stole idea for 'Jingle All the Way' ". Jefferson City News-Tribune. March 7, 2001.
