What movie to watch with my teens on Christmas eve?

In an ideal world, we would watch a brilliant new BBCish adaptation of an Agatha Christie set in a Christmassy mansion... that would be perfect.

We have had a terrible year and tbh I have no idea what's come out this year or what we've missed. I would appreciate a suggestion for a movie to watch with my kids on Christmas eve. They are teens ages 14 - 19.

  • Doesn't have to be new.
  • We like murder mysteries, as long as they're the cosy sort.
  • We like action movies but not too violent. Nothing too grim.
  • Funny is okay.
  • We liked the new Knives Out.
  • We liked the Jumanji movies.
  • We sometimes watch Marvel stuff.
  • A few years ago we enjoyed Christmas Chronicles.
  • We hated Red Dead last year.

I watched The Holdovers with dd (21) and ds (just turned 18), we all really enjoyed it although it was slightly disturbing just how much ds looks like Angus Tully. It's a fabulous movie.

Your lucky DS. Angus Tully is staggeringly handsome.
