![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() (Or, if you're feeling ambitious, dig up the old VHS copies stashed away somewhere.) What would Christmas be without instant gratification?įor more holiday options, check out our list of the best Christmas movies on Netflix this year. Who only checks a list twice? We're also telling you where to watch them right now, with an emphasis on streaming services that include them with a subscription, though you can usually rent most of these movies from the likes of Amazon, iTunes, VUDU, and YouTube. Like Santa Claus himself, we're making a list, but we're checking it more than twice because-seriously-this is important. So, with apologies to John McClane and fellow "set your action thriller on Christmas" enthusiast Shane Black, the movies you're about to read about are actually about Christmas-with all the joys, anxieties, and surprises they bring. But you probably don't ring in yuletide cheer by fighting off terrorists at Nakatomi Plaza. We don't want to make any assumptions about what your family or friends are like-maybe they're all claymation characters. Since we all have different traditions, that means Christmas films can take many chestnut-roasting, Jack Frost-nipping forms: unrelentingly cheery musicals, vaguely religious dramas, defiantly grim horror films, or gleefully vulgar comedies. A truly great Christmas movie should channel the mood of the holiday season.
