5.Candy Cane Lane
Tricked by an evil Christmas elf, Chris finds himself caught in a troublesome situation when his holiday décor comes alive. Overall, this film might not be perfect and it does have some flaws, like the final third of this film feels rather hyperactive. If you get past that this is entertaining and it is well casted, I also admire this film that tries to be something different. If you wanted a different sort of Christmas film this is ideal for you, this is a well-made film.
4.Christmas With The Coopers
The intertwined stories of four generations of Coopers unfold right before the annual family reunion on Christmas Eve. Can they survive the most beautiful time of the year. Might not gel or flow together as much. that is the only thing with this film, it has got an all star cast and they all convince in their roles, it is fun and it didn’t take itself too seriously. This will move you by the end of this film, I reckon this film will surprise many people.
3.That Christmas
It’s an unforgettable Christmas for the townsfolk of Wellington – on – Sea when the worst snowstorm in history alters everyone’s plans, including Santa’s. Doesn’t always gel or flow together as much. This is heartwarming and it will made you smile; it is an inoffensive film that is suitable for all ages, once you watched this film you will always remember this, it never feels forced or too sentimental, it is another film that will surprise many people.
2.A Boy Called Christmas
In this origin story of Father Christmas, an ordinary boy with a loyal pet mouse and a reindeer at his side – sets out on an extraordinary adventure to find his father. With a multilayered story within this film. It never gets too overcomplicated with the flashback elements, the CGI/SFX is truly outstanding, it nearly perfect but the villain itself not as memorable. It is eye catching from start to finish, it will divide people but this film is genuinely heartfelt.
1.Klaus
After proving himself to be the worst student at the academy, a postman is sent to a frozen town in the North where he discovers a reclusive toymaker named Klaus. A film that will touch people heart. it is silently powerful and it will move you, the ending is beautiful and it does delve deep into the mythological aspect, it never feels forced or too sentimental and that is the key, it will leave you a lasting impression on you as this is memorable.
