The Best Netflix Christmas Movies Streaming Now

Netflix can be a bit of a maze these days. While not quite the one-stop shop for movies it used to be, it still has a chest of cinematic gems both well-known and overlooked. Only thing is, you generally have to search for them. As the holidays approach, the streaming service will be inundating you with plenty of Christmas and Christmas-adjacent fare. Some of it is good, and some of it, well, not so much.

The good: Netflix has made a push toward producing its own original, genuinely entertaining and interesting family-friendly movies in recent years, and the seasonal options abound. (Your kids will probably love Klaus.) There are also sneaky titles in the vault for those of us who want a more adult-oriented holiday streaming experience. (See: Jon Hamm in a nightmarish Black Mirror Christmas special.)

Whatever the taste of you or those around you, it’s worth delving into one or all of these enjoyable Christmas-related movies. (We’re also encompassing TV specials, because this is the ultimate time of year for specials.) They range from the tried-and-true classics (hello, Tom Hanks and Meg Ryan) to up-and-comers with something to prove. Here are the best Netflix Christmas movies streaming now (and one upcoming title we can't wait for):
