Best Christmas Movies To Watch this Season
Now, remember that you can suggest yours in the comment section below.
#1. A Storm for Christmas
This limited series of ‘A Storm for Christmas’ got me gasping at some points and then feeling warm at others, because the movie is beautiful to watch. You can watch it on Netflix.
A delayed flight due to weather forces random people to meet at an airport – the weird-behaving man, the promiscuous lady, the inter-racial couple who are always arguing, the kind worker, the girl who was in search of a father, the broke pianist living on past glory, the celebrity who was jealous of her PA.
This movie is a must-watch if you want to see how similar and intertwined people’s lives can be, and how deep within, we’re all struggling with one thing or another.
But hey, in the spirit of Christmas, everyone gets a new beginning and finds comfort.
#2. A Naija Christmas
A Naija Christmas is a 2021 movie but all the single ladies and men can still relate, huh? If you’re going home to celebrate Christmas with your parents, then start getting ready for the “When are you getting married and giving me grandchildren” questions.
Not sure how you’ll respond? Then it’s time to watch A Naija Christmas.
#3. Christmas on Mistletoe Farm
Thinking of a movie night for you and your kids? Grab your popcorn and juice and watch Christmas on Mistletoe Farm.
After a widowed father of 5 kids inherits a farm at Christmastime, he decides it’d be the perfect place for his family to have a retreat, but what happens when city people decide to live in the countryside? Chaos, chaos, and more chaos, haha.
Thank God it’s Christmas though, the family gets to fall in love with the unfamiliar.
#4. A Zulu Christmas
A Zulu Christmas was released in 2020, this movie is perfectly tailored to children for this holiday season. A spoiled urban-dwelling boy is sent to spend the holidays with his grandmother in rural KwaZulu-Natal but life there is a contrast to where he’s coming from.
How will he navigate his new environment, the question of whether Santa is real, the implications of moving to his grandmother’s place, and the stories about his heritage and family traditions told by his grandmother? Go find out!

#5. The Claus Family
What do you think your children’s reaction would be when they discover their grandfather is Santa Claus – gasp! And then when they grow, they’d have to become Santa Claus too – multiple gasps!
Jules Claus didn’t exactly code that his name ‘Claus’ really meant something until… now, go watch this movie with your kids this holiday.
#6. Home Alone
‘Home Alone‘ is a forever classic movie. It’s an evergreen Christmas comedy about a young boy who accidentally gets left behind when his family goes on vacation for Christmas.
Haven’t you watched it yet? Here’s your chance to do so.
#7. Christmas with You
December is indeed coming to an end fast and single pringles have less than 20 days to find love. But don’t you worry; love finds us at unexpected places and times too.
In the meantime, enjoy this rom-com about a lady who finds true love unexpectedly.
#8. Christmas in Miami
What happens when you go on a fun business or is it a business-fun trip in December? A group of families from different countries decide to meet on an island in Miami for a purpose.
And then… a few glitches here and there as you know but it did not stop them from winning something. Looking for something casual, then you should watch this.
#9. The Holidays
They say oldies are goldies. Let’s get nostalgic with The Holidays this season. Two girls from different countries swap homes for the holidays to get away from their relationship issues.
However, their lives change unexpectedly when they meet and fall in love with two local guys.

I know we promised 10 movies but here is a bonus because we love you 😊, The movie ‘Classified‘ showing on Netflix is a must-watch.
It’s not a holiday or Christmas-themed series, but it wouldn’t hurt to grab some popcorn this holiday and watch this South African limited series about crime and courage.
Trust me when I say you need to watch this.
