To need help with Netflix Xmas films

73 replies

ratmatazz · 16/12/2022 19:43

Quite a serious problem guys.

There appears to be a bazillion new Christmas films now on Netflix. I love a good Christmas film but I do not have unlimited time.

Therefore I need help narrowing it down to a shortlist of the ones I should watch.

Go!

Also Love Hard is hilarious. The scene where Nina Dobrev sings Meatloaf in the bar has me in stitches every time!

Dontsayyouloveme · 16/12/2022 22:34

Not new this year but please, please watch ‘Home for Christmas’ ! It’s ace…. It’s a series but one that you just binge watch do feels like a film.. sooo good x

Angel falls Christmas was so bad I had to turn it off. And I always loved chad michael Murray as one tree hill was my show! But he's so bad in it it offended me.

A Storm for Christmas is really good. It’s a mini series rather than a film, a bit like Love Actually though in this case with people stuck in Oslo airport because of a storm. Well worth a watch.

Christmas with the Coopers every time

I liked Delivery by Christmas and holidate, The series 'I Hate Christmas' was funny reminded me of Fleabag.

If you also have Prime, I highly recommend Your Christmas Or Mine?

The Noel Diary - romantic Christmassy comedy

Loved this, and if you like the main guy in it you can then watch the infamous This is Us !

Pumpkin314 · 16/12/2022 23:06

Falling for Christmas is brilliant(ly terrible). To enjoy it to it's fullest you must watch it with something alcoholic and some friends to laugh at its ridiculousness with. I can only imagine how dire it would be to watch on your own sober though.

@canteatlovefood wasn’t he just dreadful in that. I was shocked as I also loved OTH and he was good enough in that.

I liked The Noel Diary from this year.

@PhillyJoe
Yes!! I have no idea what was going on with him, so weird and awkward I couldn't carry on!

WhatICallMyUsername · 16/12/2022 23:41

I liked Falling for Christmas and a Christmas miracle for daisy but I do like some Christmas cheese

Operation Christmas Drop from last year I think

I started watching the Noel diary but I don't think I was in the right frame of mind

Dontsayyouloveme · 17/12/2022 02:49

I hate Christmas is identical to Home for Christmas which imo is much better, it’s set in Sweden and is much nicer to watch, as is the cast!

DeadDonkey · 17/12/2022 06:26

‘This is Christmas’ was brilliant.

neveradullmoment99 · 17/12/2022 06:31

Marking this as I always struggle!

SomethingOriginal2 · 17/12/2022 06:32

I loved chirstmas with you.
Christmas chronicles 1&2
Love hard
holidate
the noel diary

Idratherbepaddleboarding · 17/12/2022 07:18

I agree with Holidaydate and The Noel Diary. I’ve watched so many Christmas films with the dog at 5am the rest have all merged into one 🙈.

roundtable · 17/12/2022 07:23

Happy, Merry Whatever (a series) was an easy watch.

Christmas film and a baileys to start of the holidays today so thank you for starting this thread!

Letsbekindplease · 17/12/2022 07:24

We watched “Love Hard” the other night and it was absolutely hilarious. I wasn’t sure at first , but watch it. Brilliant

God Netflix have gone mad

I actually liked falling for Christmas Blush

donttellmehesalive · 17/12/2022 07:37

Angel Falls Christmas was truly awful and I am a fan of rubbish Christmas films. I suppose it gave us a good laugh for all the wrong reasons. Look out for him pretending to ice skate.
