Along with new The Great British Baking Show: Holidays episodes, I can't wait for this year's Christmas movie releases on Netflix! Watching Christmas movies is always at the top of my holiday bucket list. I originally planned to share a list with all of my Netflix Christmas favorites, however I quickly realized there are still A LOT that I haven't seen yet. I will have to start binge watching everything for that one! Until then, here are my top picks from this year's new releases. Now that Thanksgiving is coming up, it's the perfect time to start marathoning! Do you usually jump into the holidays before or after Thanksgiving? I don't know if I'll get my decorating started before but I'm ready for it now!
MOST ANTICIPATED 2021 NETFLIX CHRISTMAS MOVIE RELEASES
+ The Princess Switch 3: Romancing the Star - Very happy that they decided to continue The Princess Switch movies this year. I love all of the Christmas movies with Vanessa Hudgens and the first two in this series were cute. If you haven't watched any of them, imagine the Netflix Christmas version of The Parent Trap. It's a cute story with friendship + romance thrown in.
+ Love Hard - I had no idea Nina Dobrev joined the Netflix gang until seeing the preview for Love Hard. Her character keeps striking out with the online dating game only to finally find someone who she thinks is the perfect guy. She decides to surprise visit him for the holidays only to get catfished yet again! Before leaving town, she learns THE guy in the online dating profile really exists and lives in the same town as catfishing guy. Catfishing guy then agrees to hook the two of them up (duh!) in what I am confident will be the perfect holiday rom-com we all want!
+ A Castle for Christmas - This one is the most "Netflixy Christmas" movie out of the bunch. From watching the preview, it is The Holiday meets Scotland. Brooke Shield's character is a successful author whose latest book release flops and receives immense criticism. Naturally, she runs off to Scotland to escape for the Christmas holiday and meets an ill-tempered man. It's a classic "enemies to lovers" theme which we love! I'm already expecting ALL of the cheesiness but I'm here for it! PSA-- The Holiday is also still on Netflix!
+ A Boy Called Christmas - Alright, I have to give Netflix major props on A Boy Called Christmas. This one looks SO GOOD and will be a great pick to watch with family. It follows a young boy, his pet mouse and Blitzen the reindeer on an adventure to find his father. The trailer for this one blew me away--it has that pure, magical feeling of Christmas to it and definitely looks like it's worth a watch.
What's your favorite Christmas movie of all time?? LMK so I can watch it too!
