So it looks as though there may be some terrible weather about to hit us here on the Emerald Isle this weekend. If you don't have any prior engagements, this little storm presents you with the perfect opportunity to get to work watching the top ten Christmas movies on this list!
Hot chocolate and fluffy socks at the ready as we start the countdown...
#10 The Polar Express

#9 The Grinch

#8 Elf

#7 The Family Stone

This rom com is set on Christmas Eve and Day and has some absolutely hilarious moments. Some of the scenes are little far-fetched but I think it shows just how crazy Christmas can be. Having families in confined spaces there are so many personalities and opinions roaming around they are bound to knock into each other at some point. Great movie but do keep a tissue near, the end is a bit of a tear jerker!
#6 Home Alone 2

#5 Love Actually
I know, I know. Most people cringe when see this come up on the T.V guide but I just love it! It is just so Christmassy and the stories are mad. Plenty of laughs to be had as you watch this one. Features some fantastic British actors too.
#4 Arthur Christmas
This is hands down one of the best animated movies I have ever seen. Such a fantastic story, it follows Arthur who has a passion for Christmas but is unbelievable clumsy. A real feel good movie, this is a brilliant one for all ages.
#3 The Holiday
#2 Home Alone
For many years I refused to watch this movie. To this day I am not entirely sure why. About four years ago my wife spent her first Christmas in Ireland and insisted that we watch it. I was amazed. I couldn't believe I had been missing out for so long. Hilarious in all the right places, this is an absolute must watch this Christmas!
#1 The Santa Clause
My all-time favourite. This brings back so many memories of watching it on telly in the run up to Christmas as a child. It is safe to say I have watched this movies every year since its release in the early nineties and it just never gets old. The spirit of Christmas just radiates from the screen as you watch and there are plenty of laughs too.
And there you have it! Do you have any Christmas favourites that you would add to the list?
