Home Alone – This is one of the most popular recommendations by BYJUites. And for good reason! With a funny plot and Christmas as the backdrop, Home Alone has all the right elements to make it a perfect holiday binge.

Holidate- If you are in the mood for a light rom-com, look no further. Get your popcorn ready and we bet this movie will be a fun holiday treat.

Klaus-Love watching animated movies with a Christmasy story? Klaus is the movie to pick. It is arguably one of the sweetest, emotional, and best-animated movies to have come out in recent times. Klaus was also in the news for its never-seen-before art and was nominated for an Academy Award. Don’t miss out on this delightful film.

Mr. Bean’s Holiday- We have all watched and loved Mr. Bean at some point in our lives but this movie would rarely make it to one’s holiday movie list and that’s exactly why we’ve picked this one. This hilarious holiday film is all about the adventures that Mr. Bean embarks upon faces while traveling. It will for sure make for an excellent movie to watch with family.

Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara & Yeh Jawani Hai Deewani- If we are talking about holidays and feel-good movies, why miss out on movies close to home. These two were the most recommended Bollywood movies by BYJUites and if you haven’t watched it yet, then get ready to be thoroughly entertained.

Spiderman: No Way Home-Well, you must be wondering how this superhero movie made it to our holiday movie list. As it turns out, the Tom Holland-starrer is not only one of the highly anticipated movies of the year but also a popular pick among BYJUites. Especially, if you are not into rewatching movies and are in the mood for an action-packed adventure, this is the movie for you.

The Terminal-Starring Tom Hanks, The Terminal might not be a typical holiday movie but it will leave you feeling good nevertheless. Extraordinary storyline coupled with brilliant acting and direction, the film beautifully depicts the struggles of the protagonist. It also makes a commentary on how a little bit of positivity and a whole lot of dedication can help you overcome tough times. It’s a perfect watch if you are looking for some inspiration.

The Polar Express-This motion-capture animated movie is yet another favourite watch for the holiday season. Based on a book, The Polar Express follows the story of a boy who questions the existence of Santa. Trust us when we say this, you would want to bookmark this one for a feel-good holiday watch.
