Critics Consensus: Arnold Schwarzenegger tries his best, but Jingle All the Way suffers from an uneven tone, shifting wildly from a would-be satire on materialism to an antic, slapstick yuk-fest.

Schwarzenegger's charisma helps somewhat. [Full review in Spanish]

...the movie benefits substantially from Schwarzenegger's go-for-broke turn as the progressively frantic central character...

That rare family-themed Christmas movie that isn't really aimed at kids. It's actually aimed at adults... It's a family Christmas movie that's completely honest about what family Christmases tend to be like!

Watching Arnold Schwarzenegger take a stab at light-hearted comedy is often like watching a whale try to maintain its balance on a gymnastics beam.

Regardless of how crazy it was, it is actually still entertaining. You can't help but laugh at some of the madness. Pure madness.
