My top Christmas movies (2018–present)
Since we’re all doing Wrappeds of everything now, I thought I’d compile a list of my top Christmas movies since I started logging data on Letterboxd in 2018.
Criteria
To qualify for the list, the films must fit the following criteria:
- They must be deemed a Christmas movie by my definition. I really don’t care if you think Die Hard is or isn’t a Christmas movie. Go touch grass.
- The film must have more than 1 watch logged between 2018 and whenever I update the list.
- The film must have an average rating of 3.5 or more (I rarely change my rating over multiple watch-throughs but it happens. I also disregard watches without ratings.)
As of 27th December 2024, this is the list:
| Film | Total watches | Avg. rating |
|---|---|---|
| Batman Returns | 8 | 5.0 |
| Die Hard | 4 | 5.0 |
| How the Grinch Stole Christmas | 3 | 5.0 |
| The Christmas Contract | 3 | 4.75 |
| Last Christmas | 3 | 4.0 |
| Home Alone | 2 | 4.0 |
| Trading Christmas | 4 | 3.5 |
