Archived from the original on November 14, 2020 . Retrieved December 14, 2010. 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.

Jamie is ultimately saved by Howard, who reveals himself to his son, Howard apologizes to Officer Hummell about everything, while Myron is escorted away by police, all the while ranting about how he will explain the situation to his son. Touched by Myron's undying dedication to his own son, Jamie gives the doll to him, and tells Howard that he does not need the doll since his father is "the Real Turbo Man". The crowd carries Howard off praising him for his heroic actions as Myron, Jamie, and Liz happily watch. Every person who`s planning a materialistic Christmas (that means everybody)ought to see this brilliant movie. This is naturally no favorite among those who prefer a commercial Christmas, but I don`t think YOU want to stay in that group......not after "Jingle all the Way". a b Strauss, Bob (November 19, 1996). "Sales Pitch Or Satire? - Schwarzenegger's Turbo Man Quest Spotlights Commercialism In 'Jingle' ". Daily News of Los Angeles. p.L7. Jingle All The Way remakes that faithful Christmas where Cabbage Patch Kids and Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers were selling like hot cakes in local toy stores. The mass sell out encouraged fights and I'm willing to bet many kids didn't get the one present they were hoping for. The story replaces the Kids and the Rangers toys with an ultra-cool TurboMan action figure equipped with the shiniest plastic around and five different phrases. Thompson, Anne (May 17, 1996).

In the ensuing chase, Howard runs into a preparations room and is mistaken as a live action Turbo-Man stuntman in the parade. As the "real" Turbo-Man, he uses the opportunity to present the coveted limited-edition Turbo-Man doll to his son in the crowd. But before he can recognize his father, Jamie is chased around the parade by Myron who is dressed as Turbo-Man's arch enemy Dementor having caught and tied up the real actor (Richard Moll) while Howard does his best to keep up, though with little skill in controlling the Turbo-Man equipment.

The thing with Arnie is that you're either going to take him or leave him. If you find his accent aggravating, or his acting wooden, then stay away from this film because you're just not going to like it anyway. I don't think he's that bad in this and I would go so far as to say that it is probably his second most successful comedy ("Kindergarden Cop" being my first choice -- "IT'S NOT A TOOMAH!!!" CLassic! Ha!). He's got an excellent supporting cast in this one: Jim Belushi as a seedy shopping mall Santa, Rita Wilson as Arnie's long suffering wife, Phil Hartman as the sugary sweet sleaze of a neighbour and of course the inimitable Sinbad. I would argue that the unlikely pairing of Sinbad and Arnie works extremely well and is probably the key to the film's success. Neither really has the acting chops to make the other look bad or out of place and so they are each able to hold their own when on screen at the same time. I'm Not A Pervert! I Was Just Looking For Turbo Man Doll! - Jingle All The Way | Funny Quote Candles | 100% Soy Candle | Made in CA First of all, let me say I am way easier on Christmas movies than I am general releases. I don't know why. Maybe its that its the time of the year, and all the tinsel dust gets settled into my brain until I am in a stupor... Arnold Schwarzenegger must have a sense of humor, because he isn't afraid of embarrassing himself by getting beat up and pulverized by the holiday rush, a bitter mailman, and a Santa Claus that can scare blind children. His performance by no means is Oscar-worthy, but we see him with his determination like in his usual action films, but in a whole new arena, a totally different atmosphere, and that just adds a dosage of humor to the entire film. To see an action star have to claw his way out of a melee of people trying to get bouncy balls is priceless. Almost as rare as Schwarzenegger looking wimpy is Sinbad in a superb film. His performance as the disgruntled mailman just matches him perfectly, and his determination to get the doll is just as bad. Rounding out the cast is a bunch of underrated and/or B-list stars like the brilliant Phil Hartman, Rita Wilson, Robert Conrad, and James Belushi. If it's a good family film and a happy Christmas film that you want, then this is the film for you. Don't expect a deep, intellectual film, just expect a good children's film. I hope you enjoy the film, thanks for reading.

a b c d Hewitt, Chris (November 17, 1996). "Laughing All The Way // 'Jingle' Stars Say Making Movies in the Twin Cities Was Good Sledding– After They Made Their Own Snow". St. Paul Pioneer Press. p.1E. Howard Langston (Arnold Schwarzenegger) is a workaholic mattress salesman, who does not find time for his wife, Liz (Rita Wilson), and his young son, Jamie (Jake Lloyd) - especially when compared to next door "superdad" divorcee, Ted Maltin (Phil Hartman), who continually puts Howard in a bad light. Howard Langston, a mattress salesman, is constantly busy at his job, and he also constantly disappoints his son, Jamie. After he misses Jamie's karate exposition, he tries hard to come up with a way to make it up to him. He says that all he wants for Christmas is a Turbo Man action figure. Unfortunately for Howard, it is Christmas Eve, and every store is sold out. Now Howard must travel all over town and compete with everybody else including a mailman named Myron Larabee to find one, and to make it to the Holiday Wintertainment Parade, which will feature Turbo Man. — John Wiggins
