Nothing really makes the holiday season feel as cozy as good movies to cuddle up on the couch with. Through romance, nostalgic kid’s movies, and timeless oldies you will be wanting to watch these movies again and again without getting bored.
5. Christmas Vacation – National Lampoons is a hilarious and relatable Christmas story following a family who constantly runs into trouble. Although a bit mature, it is appropriate for a family watch and perfect if you’re in the mood f or a comedy.
4. Klaus – This newer movie is targeted for children, but the animated movie Klaus is an adorable story following the creation of Santa Claus with the help of an uninspired mailman and a feud-ridden island. People of all ages can get sucked into this movie and enjoy the heartwarming story line.
3. Home Alone – This movie is just a classic for people of all ages. Personally, for my family this is a must-watch every year. With the iconic lines and lovable main character, the storyline hooks you in and is a great story about family and what Christmas is supposed to be about.
2. It’s a Wonderful Life – By far the oldest movie on this list, this beautiful story never fails to bring tears to my eyes. The plot is so fascinating and makes you very appreciative of what you have and the people around you. I recommend watching this one the night before Christmas so you can feel extra grateful when celebrating with family in the morning.
1. While You Were Sleeping – Even though this is not technically considered a Christmas movie, it encapsulates the holiday season of family and romance. Again, this movie has a plotline that draws you in right from the beginning and features a loveable main character that you can’t help but root for. The ending of the movie brings the message together along with the perfect plot twist. This is a personal favorite movie of mine and a sweet rom-com.
No matter what you enjoy watching, I encourage you to check out any of these 5 movies and maybe add some new must-watches to your winter movie list. These perfectly capture the sweet feeling that seems to float in the air during the Holiday season and brighten up anyone’s day, even a grinch.
