 | I was pleasantly amused by this christmas folley. My kids loved it. There are those who are prepared for Christmas and those who are not. I've been both. This movie takes them to the extreme in an entertaining way. Hope you enjoy. |

 | This movie is a movie that is 100% truthful to how parents shop for their kids. This story is about a work-o-holic dad who is absent minded and always forgets famili events, (e.g. his sons karote ceremony.) One night his wife asks him if he picked up a Turbo man doll for his son. He says nothing becuase he forgot. The next day (which is Christmas Eve) he goes out to try and find this doll for his son. there is only one problem, this is the Christmas hot seller. This leads him on a chase with a whole bunch of laughs along the way. I would recommend this Christmas Comedy Classic to kids because it totally reflects today's parents |

 | This movie is great if you have a zany sense of humor.
I think the reason that most people do not like it is that it hits too close to home. This movie is for people who can laugh at their problems, and some people don't feel that trying to find the toy of the year at Christmas is funny because of painful experience.
Of course, the point of the movie is that the father wants very badly to keep this promise to his son because he has let him down so many times before. At the end of the movie, guess what? Arnold BECOMES his son's hero! How cool is that? Who wouldn't want to be their kid's hero?
People whose parents let them down and people who let their kids down would not like this movie. Like I said, it hits too close home. Ouch! |

 | Watched this on Christmas day. This odious, mean-spirited tribute to commercial greed and action-hero worship will sour any Christmas spirit. The moral of the story is that "being there" for your children means giving them what they want, no matter what it takes and no matter who is in the way. Of course, the charm is only increased by having the neighbor hit on Arnold's wife; but what's a Christmas story without a little sexual tension. The best thing about this movie is seeing the California governor in a role he is actually capable of performing. |
