Two dads, one toy, no prisoners.

Directed by Brian Levant, Jingle All The Way is the Christmas family comedy film starring Arnold Schwarzenegger and Sinbad.

Luke and Jae revisit this classic holiday romp from 1996 which was inspired by real-life Christmas toy sell-outs for hot items such as Cabbage Patch Kids.

Workaholic Howard Langston (Arnold Schwarzenegger) wants to make things up to his son, Jamie (Jake Lloyd), and wife, Liz (Rita Wilson). He promises to get Jamie the hottest toy of the season, Turbo-Man - even though it's Christmas Eve and the toy is practically sold out. As Howard hunts down the elusive gift, he runs into mailman Myron (Sinbad), another father on the same quest. With the clock winding down, Howard's moral code is tested.
