Trivia:
When driving to the Santa HQ, James Belushi's character fires off a string of questions toward Arnold Schwarzenegger's character. The questions such as "What is this, 60 Minutes?", "Who are you, The Question King?" and also "Who are you, Dan Rather?" are an almost word-for-word replica of a scene in Red Heat (1988), in which both Belushi and Schwarzenegger starred. more
Goofs:
Factual errors: When Howard runs into Ted and the reindeer, the reindeer's antlers are still in velvet. Velvet is shed in August, at least four months before the Christmas Eve setting. more
Quotes:
Myron Larabee: I'll know if you move 'cause I have the ears of a snake! more

Makes me miss Phil Hartman a lot., 20 November 2000
10/10
Author: FlyFish from Louisville, KY

With Ahhnold giving lines like "That's really Kuuuul (cool)" and Hartman's "Your wife's cookies are delicious" this is a lighthearted movie. Don't take it serious. I do advise that you should watch all the way through the credits to catch the end of the movie.
