See where Elf and Love Actually stand on Seizeshirt’s list of holiday favorites for any movie fan’s library, as well as what we named No. 1. Below are the Top 10 Best Christmas movies ever
No.10 – The Santa Clause (1994)
This movie is for you if the image of Tim Allen in a fat suit makes you want to dream of sugarplums. After unintentionally killing Santa, the Home Improvement star must step in. It’s no Even though It’s a Wonderful Life, it has some flaws. Judge Reinhold is another!
No.9 – Gremlins (1984)
The festive season is depicted in Joe Dante’s cheeky monster-mash comedy, which isn’t exactly a Christmas movie per se. And who wouldn’t want to wake up on Christmas morning and find a cute little pet like Gizmo under their tree? Providing you didn’t feed it after midnight, that is.
No.8 – National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation (1989)
It’s true that this isn’t the Griswold family saga’s best chapter. Even yet, Chevy Chase’s awkward meeting with a beautiful department store saleswoman and Randy Quaid’s Cousin Eddie make Christmas Vacation worth viewing on their own. I was merely blousing, er, surfing! The weather is a little nipply, er, nippy!
No.7 – Scrooged (1988)
Nobody does Bah Humbug like Bill Murray’s ruthless TV executive Frank Cross, who plays the role in this dark comedic adaptation of Charles Dickens’ A Christmas Carol. Yes, it is very similar to the movie Groundhog Day (jerk becomes a better man on the eve of a national holiday). It still makes for the ideal prickly antidote to Yuletide sap, though.
No.6 – Die hard (1988)
Due to Alan Rickman’s iconic Teutonic villain Hans Gruber (who discovers a one-man killing machine along with a lump of coal in his stocking! ), New York officer John McClane (Bruce Willis) ends up attending the Christmas workplace party from hell while visiting his wife in Los Angeles. When you have “Yippee ki-yay, motherf—-er,” who needs “Ho, ho, ho”?
No.5 – Miracle on the 34th Street (1947)
Edmund Gwenn, a senior Santa in a Macy’s department store, pretends to be Kris Kringle and persuades even the most jaded adults that he is the real deal. Even though he would be handcuffed and sent to jail if this timeless classic were to be remade today, there is indisputable sweetness about it.
No.4 – White Christmas (1954)
This movie is for you if the image of Tim Allen in a fat suit makes you want to dream of sugarplums. After unintentionally killing Santa, the Home Improvement star must step in. It’s no Even though It’s a Wonderful Life, it has some flaws. Judge Reinhold is another!
No.3 – The Nightmare Before Christmas (1993)
Although Tim Burton and Henry Selick’s stop-motion holiday fable may seem more appropriate for Halloween than Christmas, it is pure eye delight.
No.2 – Trading Places (1983)
This movie is for you if the image of Tim Allen in a fat suit makes you want to dream of sugarplums. After unintentionally killing Santa, the Home Improvement star must step in. It’s no Even though It’s a Wonderful Life, it has some flaws. Judge Reinhold is another!
No.1 – Home Alone (1990)
John Hughes’ novel Planes, Trains, and Automobiles brought heart to the holiday. With the story of 8-year-old Kevin McCallister (the lovely Macaulay Culkin), who is left alone by his family only to face down — and outwit — a couple of clumsy burglars, he takes a less romantic approach to the holidays in Home Alone. You can appreciate this one at any time of the year, let’s face it.
