Our favorite (and not so favorite) holiday movies
With the holidays upon us, we thought we’d take this opportunity to list a few of our favorite and not so favorite holiday films. Most of them have romances as well, although there’s a few sprinkled in here that don’t, at least not in the traditional sense. There are some old classics as well as some new entries, and some that aren’t technically considered holiday romances but are set during the holidays and therefore worth mentioning. Some feature couples we’ve reviewed but there are many we still have yet to cover. And there are a few we included just because we love them.
We’ve included the IMDB links for each along with the links to our reviews if they apply.
And now here they are, in no particular order. Enjoy and happy holidays!
