Whether or not you celebrate Christmas, it’s hard not to love the delightfully cheesy movies that air this time of the year. From old classics to new releases, we’ve rounded up top Christmas movies from the Accela team to bring on the feels this festive season – grab some hot chocolate, settle in and enjoy!
Elf
“I’m not sure if you could call it a classic, but I somehow end up watching Elf every year around Christmas (and maybe some other times of the year… it’s a great plane movie!). Will Ferrell is always hilarious, and I love how silly yet heartwarming the movie is. Bonus points for incredible shots of New York around Christmas time when the city feels extra magical!” – Jess Slevin, Senior Communications Director, Accela Communications
Love Actually
“It brings a nice little bit of home Christmas spirit every year” – Jen Stewart, Communications Director, Accela Communications
Miracle on 34th Street (1994)
“I absolutely love this film and even though I have other faves like Elf and Polar Express, I always come back to this one as it gives me a warm happy Christmas feeling! This would have come out when I was 15 years old, so I’ve been watching it every year for 26 years and I’ve never tired of it!” – Vicky Jones, Finance Account Executive
National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation
“My favourite holiday movie follows a family as they struggle with a typical battle all families face at the holidays – high expectations! I love how the film humourously illustrates the struggles of mixing families and the mishaps that occur along the way to making everything perfect at the holidays. No matter how many times I watch it, Christmas Vacation always evokes belly laughs and warm fuzzies for me around the holidays.” – Erin Padilla, CEO & Co-Founder, Accela Group
Ratatouille
“My favourite movie is Ratatouille. I like it because of the quote that comes in the movie, ‘Anyone can cook.’” – Savitha Vasan, Finance Manager, Accela Finance
