You can enjoy Larry's natural comedic talent in a clean family film


My 11 year old daughter said that this is better than seeing Larry the Cable Guy dressed up as a Tooth Fairy. I liked this movie because you get to see Larry the Cable Guy acting like Larry the Cable Guy without perverse or sexual humor. The little girl in the movie was a great child actor talent who seemed genuine and less Hollywood. The big epic slapstick humor did not work for Robbin Williams in RV because Robin Williams was too sophisticated a comedian for that kind of humor but, in Jingle All the Way 2, the epic slap stick humor fits perfectly with Larry. My daughter said she likes seeing the face of the voice of Mater and without a Tooth Fairy costume. My wife and I enjoyed it because Larry does have natural comedic talent and we were able to enjoy him in a non-R-rated format.

It's such sterilized humor that most kinds of laughter would die on contact.

If you have an acquired taste for Larry The Cable Guy's regular humor, I could see how you could feel shortchanged with only the childproof humor you get in this movie. I have to say that I have never watched the first Jingle All the Way with Arnold Schwarzenegger. I'm trying to find an opportunity to see that one for the first time.

Some like it, some don't, personally it's on my every year watch list. It's silly, not too deep, some people miss the point of the movie and see it as a celebration of human greed over the importance of family, I personally enjoy it because it reminds me of rat race (yes I see the irony in that statement).

what is wrong with you guys... no... you don't ever need to see Jingle All the Way . You also don't need to spray lemon juice in your eyes.

I see the confusion, I was talking about Jingle all the way... you seem to be under the impression I was recommending The Dog who Saved Christmas.

I'm so glad you posted your opinion of this movie! Now I can add you to ignore.
