Have you see this film?
What are your thoughts?
What would you rate it out of 10?
Workaholic Minneapolis mattress salesman Howard Langston loves his wife, Liz, and nine-year-old son, Jamie, but is unable to find time for his family and often put in a bad light by his neighbor, divorcé Ted Maltin, who harbors unrequited feelings for Liz. After missing Jamie's karate class graduation, Howard resolves to redeem himself by fulfilling Jamie's Christmas wish of an action figure of Turbo-Man, a popular television superhero, despite Liz actually having asked him to buy one two weeks earlier, which Howard forgot about. On Christmas Eve, Howard sets out to buy the toy, but finds that every store has sold out, and in the process develops a rivalry with Myron Larabee, a postal worker father with the same ambition.

I thought it was pretty cool as a kid. I liked it, 8/10 at the time. I'd probably be more critical now, I actually think I saw it as an adult at one point and thought it'd be better if it was a little more realistic.

It sure is a movie.
Like all of Ahnuld's comedies, it's not great, but you probably won't regret watching it.
And remember, "I'm-a Luigi, number one!"

Bits and pieces, I've seen! I like it when Arnold is in comedies, and Sinbad? Oh, man, I love his show! I watched it all the time when I was a little kid!
I'd rate it Sinbad the Comedian Should Have Gotten Guest Appearances on The Adventures of Sinbad/10.

My kid discovered it last week and has watched it about 4 or 5 times now. Phil Hartman plays a good villain in it. I wouldn't watch it on my own, but I can enjoy it for what it is when she wants it on.
