The holiday season is upon us, and everyone has a few Christmas movies that warm the heart like hot cocoa. We have some great movie suggestions that will bring you back to your childhood!

1) Home Alone (1990) Christmas movies

If you haven’t seen Macaulay Culkin’s Home Alone yet, you must be living in a cave. This movie used to be on TV every night around Christmas time back in the old days. There’s a good chance you have old DVDs of the movie in your closet. You may as well watch all three of its sequels for the holiday season.

2) Elf (2003)

Nothing brings back childhood memories like watching a grownup man perform his duties as one of Santa’s elves. Even though it sometimes seems like we are, Elf serves as a reminder that we are never too old to develop a Christmas spirit.

3) The Polar Express (2004) Christmas movies

You feel as though you are actually in a magical winter wonderland when watching classic animations like The Polar Express because of its realistic design. The Polar Express not only portrays the wonder of Christmas, but it also does a superb job of immersing you in its landscapes, story, and characters.

4) Love Actually (2003)

Love Actually is a 2003 Christmas-themed romantic comedy film written and directed by Richard Curtis. The film serves as a fantastic illustration of a wonderful Christmas movie. Some even take it as far as calling it “the best Christmas movie ever.” Now is the time to watch this movie!

5) The Holiday (2006)

The Holiday is the ideal movie for New Year’s Eve. The theme of the movie is essentially “new year, new you.” It revolves around two women who decide to leave their lives behind, and in the end, they are able to create a better one. The movie is a fantasy about what we hope will happen when we try to keep our half-arsed resolutions.

P.S.: Here are some more movies you can watch while cozy-ed up in your blanket.
