Comedy. Kids A harried father decides to dream the impossible dream, to get that year's hot toy for his son just before Christmas Day

	Author	Review
United States	Emanuel Levy Variety	"An erratic comedy that will frustrate children"	NEG
United States	Owen Gleiberman Entertainment Weekly	"A 'satire' of frenzied consumerism that’s really a barely ironic assertion of it (...) For all its garishness, though, the film is punchy and fast"	NEU
United States	Janet Maslin The New York Times	"This schlocky, sluggish comedy features Arnold Schwarzenegger in madcap mode"	NEG
United States	Roger Ebert rogerebert.com	"I liked a lot of the movie, which is genial and has a lot of energy, but I was sort of depressed by its relentlessly materialistic view of Christmas (...) Rating: ★★½ (out of 4)"	NEU
United States	Heather Boerner Common Sense Media	"If you don't have to watch 'Jingle All the Way', don't. It's everything that's wrong with the holiday season: It's competitive, it's stressful, it's desperate, and it's all about consumerism."	NEG
United Kingdom	Neil Jeffries Empire	"Would you please check your brain in at the door as you join the queue for the popcorn? (…) Rating: ★ (out of 5)"	NEG
