11 Movies on Netflix That Will Get You in Holiday Spirit - Sunset -

“A Bad Moms Christmas”

What could possibly get you in the holiday spirit more than this outlandish comedy following our favorite moms trying to get through the holidays?

In the sequel to the hit 2016 comedy about three mothers (played by Mila Kunis, Kristen Bell, and Kathryn Hahn) who decide to throw aside their motherly responsibilities and have fun, the trio now have to deal their moms (Christine Baranski, Cheryl Hines, and Susan Sarandon) over the holidays.

“A Naija Christmas”

This is the first Nigerian Christmas movie ever to show up on Netflix.

The comedy follows a mother (Rachel Oniga) whose holiday wish is for her sons (played by Abayomi Alvin, Kunle Remi, and Efa Iwara) to get married.

And to motivate them, she tells her boys that the first to get hitched will be rewarded with her palatial house in his inheritance.

“Bridget Jones’s Diary”

This classic comedy starring Renée Zellweger is always the perfect watch this time of year as the movie’s conclusion is set in a snowy London during the holidays.

“The Christmas Chronicles” franchise

You can’t go wrong with watching “The Christmas Chronicles” movies right about now.

The original and its sequel starring Kurt Russell as a super cool (and at times not scared to bust out into song) Santa is extremely entertaining.

“Dolly Parton’s Christmas on the Square”

This faith-based holiday movie stars Dolly Parton as an angel who visits the Scrooge-like Regina (Christine Baranski), a woman on the verge of evicting her hometown’s residents so she can cash in on the building of a megamall.

Parton also wrote all the songs that are performed in the movie.

For many of us, it’s about that time to get the Elf on the Shelf out of hiding.

This fun 26-minute animated movie is a fun watch for the kids as we watch one Elf who sets out to help a child become a true believer.
