1. The Santa Clause
My Favorite Christmas movie |
2. Nightmare before Christmas
When Jack Skellington, the bored Pumpkin King of
Halloweentown, stumbles upon Christmastown, he decides to change Christmas into
another Halloween. He kidnaps Santa Claus then delivers some alternative gifts
to the children. A stop-motion animated classic directed by Tim Burton, it has
all the dark and dazzling Burton magic you would expect, full of twisted
characters and stunning imagery.
3. Home Alone
When 8-year-old Kevin McCallister is accidentally
left behind while his family flies to France for Christmas, he has to defend
his home against idiotic burglars. Child star Macaulay Culkin stars in this
black comedy for kids that is super charming.
4. The Polar Express
On Christmas Eve, a
doubting boy boards a magical train that's headed to the North Pole and Santa
Claus's home. An animated film voiced by Tom Hanks, this is as spectacular to
look at as it is touching and enchanting.
5. The Grinch
Inside a snowflake is the
magical land of Whosville, populated by the ‘Whos’. All the Whos love Christmas
– except for The Grinch, a nasty creature who plots to steal Christmas away
forever. Jim Carey stars in this live action film that brings the Dr Seuss
classic children’s book to life
6. Bad Santa (2003)
Rude, crude and
surprisingly touching, Bad Santa is a dark comedy starring Billy Bob Thornton
as a con man masquerading as a mall Santa. Out to rip off stores full of
Christmas goodies, this bad Santa’s plans come unstuck when he befriends a
troubled kid who needs his help.
The best Christmas Movie for me is Die Hard!!!!
ReplyDeleteThat's definitely one of the good ones!!!
DeleteTrading Places (1983)
ReplyDeleteMovie is abt Rich Louis Winthorpe III (Dan Aykroyd) who is forced to literally trade places with street bum Billy Ray Valentine (Eddie Murphy) as part of a wager.
As in "Christmas is a time to remember those less fortunate than yourself." Great movie!!!
That's when Eddie Murphy is still making good movies. Too bad we've not seen anything good from him since!
DeleteElf- not a big fan of Will Ferrel but this movie did well at the box office!
ReplyDeleteBy the way like Die Hard & Trading Places as well!!!!
A Christmas Carol- Jim carrey!!!!
ReplyDeleteI like Midnight before Christmas best- it's so unusual & creative. Santa Clause is good too!
