Christmas is just around the corner, but are you feeling like you’re not in the Christmas spirit yet? Here are some movies to consider watching during the month of December that will get you in the Christmas spirit. Watching these five Christmas movies, I guarantee will get you in the Christmas spirit.

One of the movies, “Elf” is a well known classic that many people have seen. Most people never get sick of watching this movie. It stars Will Ferrell who plays the role of one of Santa’s elves who doesn’t fit in because he is a human and cannot do the same tasks as the other elves. He then goes on an adventure to find his birth father in New York City. “Elf” is full of comical scenes and has many different aspects that make the movie creative and Christmas-like. One aspect is how the movie takes place mainly in  New York City and shows some of the sites in the city like Central Park. This helps make the movie more realistic instead of just having it animated like a lot of other Christmas movies.

 The second movie that gets people into the Christmas spirit is “The Polar Express.” The movie is an animated classic starring Tom Hanks’ voice as the conductor of the train, the Polar Express. The movie is about a kid who doesn’t believe in Santa when the Polar Express pulls up to his house and takes him on a trip to the North Pole so he can believe once again that Santa is real. On the way, he meets some new friends and the whole trip is an adventure because the route they take to get to the North Pole is quite hectic. This film is one that can be enjoyed with your family or watched by yourself, either way, this movie will definitely put you in the Christmas spirit.

Another must-see movie to be watched over the holiday break is “Home Alone.” “Home Alone” is a family comedy classic that many love watching because they can relate the family in the movie to their own. The movie is about an eight year old boy, named Kevin, who gets forgotten at home while the rest of his family goes on vacation for Christmas. He has to defend his house from a pair of burglars who try to get in the house. This movie is filled with comical scenes that will bring joy to the entire family.

“The Santa Clause” is another movie that brings the family together to share laughs during the holidays, starring Tim Allen as Scott who becomes Santa in the movie. “The Santa Clause” movie was just the first of several more sequels. This movie is about Scott and his son, Charlie, who find Santa on their roof Christmas morning, but he falls off and disappears. Scott then has to take the role of Santa and deliver gifts to all of the children in the world. The movie is full of hilarious actors who help make the movie funny and create a happy Christmas feel.

The last movie that makes Christmas, Christmas, is the “The Grinch.” “The Grinch” is one of those movies where the antagonist in the movie becomes good once again. This movie takes place in Whoville, where the Grinch spends all of his time on a mountain that he lives in, above the town. Ever since the Grinch had a ruining experience with Christmas as a child, he has despised Christmas and everything about it. The Grinch is a movie that you should consider watching this Christmas because it makes people take into consideration the people who are less fortunate than others and encourages people to be grateful and giving during the holidays.

These movies are some of the best around and by watching them I can assure you that you will be put in the Christmas spirit in no time.
