I am a HUGE fan of the Hallmark channel. However this Christmas season I have been watching Christmas themed movies on every and any streaming platform we have. From Amazon to Netflix to Peacock there are so many good ones! However, here are my top 5 must see recommendations…
Our Little Secret
Our Little Secret is new and in the top 10 on Netflix right now! Lindsey Lohan stars in this one, and let me tell you Christmas movies are so her thing!!! My husband and I really enjoyed this movie. It made us laugh a lot more than we expected! Christmas time is sometimes a time where you meet significant others in the family. However in this family the siblings are each dating significant others who happen to be exes. They try to hide knowing each other and their romantic past. You have to watch it and see how this plays out (you might be able to guess the ending)!
Miracle in Bethlehem, PA
This is actually a Hallmark movie but I watched it on Netflix (watch it before it leaves). When I started this movie they showed Mary Ann (one of the main characters) praying. It may not be everyone’s cup of tea. However I was very happy to see that shown. She trusts God’s timing in being able to adopt a baby. Being a mother was something she knew she wanted to be. On the other hand, falling in love with a guy she met when she was stuck in a snowstorm? That was not what she expected. I would most certainly watch this heartwarming movie again!
Lucy Shimmers and the Prince of Peace
This movie can be found on Peacock and Amazon! When I tell you this movie had my husband and I both CRYING our eyes out. There is nothing more magical than seeing everything through kids’ eyes especially during the holiday season. Kids are pure and so honest. Lucy meets a criminal named Edgar at the hospital she’s staying at. She learns about him and shows grown adults that second chances are not always a bad thing (because let’s be honest, adults can struggle to see past specific things). I could talk about this movie ALL day but I don’t want to spoil anything so PLEASE watch this one!
The Princess Switch
I believe this one came out in the previous year (along with The Princess Switch 2 and 3) on Netflix however, I still watch it every Christmas. Who doesn’t want to fall in love with a prince? This movie does a great job at showing how different you can be even if you look alike, being a twin I’m a pretty good judge of that. If you love the royals (like me) and dream of having a royal Christmas, you’ll enjoy these!
Meet Me Next Christmas
Teddy and Layla were on a mission to buy a ticket to a sold out concert, where Layla was supposed to reconnect with a guy who she thought was the one. As Teddy and Layla bond you’ll notice their connection grow deeper. You can imagine how this movie ends. If you are a Pentatonix fan, you might just enjoy this rom com!
