November 6, 2021 by Amie Cranswick

Ahead of its digital release later this month, a trailer, poster and images have arrived online for the festive family comedy Christmas Thieves which stars Tom Arnold and Michael Madsen as burglars who are mistaken for babysitters after breaking into the home of siblings Liam and Olivia while on the run from the police. Hoping to make the children fall asleep so they can make their escape, the criminals finds themselves pulled into an enchanted world while reading a magic book; check them out here…

‘Christmas Thieves’ follows Frank (Tom Arnold) and Vince (Michael Madsen), after a robbery goes wrong, they break into a home to avoid the cops when eight-year-old Liam and four-year-old Olivia mistake them for their babysitters. Hoping to make the children fall asleep so they can make their final getaway, Frank begins to read them stories from a magic book that he grabbed during the robbery, taking them to the enchanted world of ARCTIC FRIENDS. The two thieves have to endure the children’s hijinks as they make various attempts – as absurd as they are disastrous – to escape.
