First, I wished I could give this movie a zero, but one is the lowest score IMDB allows.
Ughh... I hated this movie! And who taught the script was worth for a movie??? This movie is a stupid and awful disaster of a Christmas comedy. I can't think of a worst family movie except KAZAAM with Shaquille O'Neal, ED with Matt Leblanc and SANTA WITH MUSCLES with Hulk Hogan!
Here is the family friendly (No way in hell!) plot. A hard-working father has problems in keeping promises to his son. After a missed karate class he has to buy a Turbo man for his son but every store hasn't got them anymore. So he has to fight with everyone for obtain the damn action figure! Ending even in a parade and making a fool of himself.
There are two types of bad movies. The first is the Super-cheap movies (like ''Plan 9 from Outer Space'', ''Manos the Hands of Fate'', ''Madmen of Mandoras''). Yes, this movies are made with super-low budget and they only do one thing, and do it well: Suck! The second type of bad movies, and ''Jingle All the Way'' is the king of this category, are the big-budgeted, bad and irritating movies. You feel so angry that you want to beat every single person that made it!
''Jingle All the Way'' is a movie that made me feel very enraged after I watched it. The few other movies that caused me such a reaction were BABY GENIUSES, FREDDY GOT FINGERED and SANTA WITH MUSCLES. And with such a plot the director and producers only could had kidnapped relatives in order to force Arnold Schwarzenegger and Robert Conrad to star in this movie. And they must have screamed ''CRAP-FEST'' while making this movie. I'll give you three examples of how annoying all the other characters were:
Sinbad: Oh, I hated him! He was so obnoxious and so unbearable that I always rooted for the ones that hurt him. Somebody should have said to Sinbad ''STOP, NO-ONE LAUGHS AT YOU''. And I hope he ended in jail at the end of the movie!
Phil Hartman: the worst character put in a kids movie, he was only a buffoon that acted like some sort of a stud and nearly won Arnie's wife's attentions. Yeah, a good message kids! A mother super-floozy that is more interested in a bachelor only because keeps promises? All wrong folks!
Jim Belushi: the worst Santa Clause ever, worst than Hulk Hogan! He was so obnoxious, stupid and unlikeable that you want to smash the TV with an hammer and all the other Santa Clauses ended the way they deserved: In JAIL for the rest of their lives!
And, as for Mickey Rooney's pointless cameo, it really did nothing to me (much like his other cameo in BABE PIG IN THE CITY).
So, if you like bachelors that steals other wives, criminals dressed as Santa Clause and a vicious reindeer, this IS the movie for you! Think of ''Ed'', ''Baby Geniuses'', ''Howard the Duck'', ''Problem Child 2'' mixed all together in a movie and written in a room full of mandrills! This is the result.
That's it! Nothing funny, nothing endearing and nothing worth seeing in this movie. It's just stupid (and I felt a idiot watching it), pointless and no good for kids. STAY AWAY FROM THIS MOVIE LIKE POISON!! Don't say I didn't warn you! And don't you dare showing this movie to your children!
