The Christmas Countdown is officially on and from when this post is published there’s exactly 3 days and 26 minutes until Christmas (but hey, who’s counting anyway). If you’re looking for something festive to do if you’re not last minute Christmas shopping with the bustling crowd, then I advise you to grab a warm blanket, fluffy socks and some hot chocolate to sit back and enjoy some of these favourite Christmas holiday movies!
Depending on the film genre you feel like watching, we’ve got a range of romantic comedies, family classics and animated favourites that you have probably already seen (but let’s face it, it’s essential to re-watch Christmas movies once December rolls around). But if you haven’t watched most of these movies, then you can thank me later once you watch them because you definitely won’t regret it. I promise these movies will leave you laughing, crying, smiling and melting on the couch with all the feels because of the heart-felt messages you will take away from them (just like the Grinch when his heart grows as he begins to feel actual human feelings).
