Amusing enough, but not one of Arnie's better kid-friendly offerings IMO.

Instead, it's Carry-on.
As in luggage.
This is Christmas set - although I'm not sure I'd call it a Christmas movie (discuss) - set in an airport, and follows a young security guard after he is blackmailed into letting a suspicious package through security on Christmas Eve.
This steadily ratchets up the tension, as he struggles to stop said package from boarding a plane and to keep his colleagues (including his fiance) in the dark over just what is going on ...

Rebecca Billcliff (2409 KP) rated The Nightmare Before Christmas (1993) in Movies
Dec 5, 2019
While pondering his identity crisis, we stumbles out of Halloween Town and into Christmas Town!
Becoming obsessed with this new Holliday, he convinces the town to run Christmas, and takes father Christmas hostage/ for a forced holiday, in order to put their spooky twist on the day.
With a host of creepy but lovable characters, they learn the true spirit of Christmas.
Sounds cheesy? Well, surprisingly not. It is often debated as to weather this is a Christmas or Halloween film. Considering the lessons learnt, I would say it is an Xmas film, but a bit of a spooky one.
The songs are catchy (And I recommend the 2 disc soundtrack with the cover versions), the visuals are spectacular! All done with stop motion, it is a credit to this school of animation. Stunning and fun, it's a great watch, and one of my all time favourite.

Andy K (10823 KP) rated National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation (1989) in Movies
Dec 4, 2018
This time, the vacation comes to the Griswolds as the relatives come by for a helping of holiday cheer as Clark decides to makes his home a Christmas light spectacle while waiting for his Christmas bonus.
I think it resonates because we have all had those trying times with the family or the one relative you wish you could tell off or not have to sit next to.
The witty banter among the family as well as Chevy Chase's impeccable dry wit makes the film a venerable holiday classic for sure.
